    Small, versatile, great pictures for APS film limitations. I used Kodak Advantix 400. The 29-87mm zoom (35 format) is absolutely wonderful! The options are well thought out, but you need to study them before using the camera. I am happy to share this with atv rentals st george utah.

    Weakness:

    Red eye reduction.

    i brought this camera for a begining photography class that i was taking. The first time i even tried to use the camera my professor check it out and discovered the the light metering was very off he told me to call vivitar for a new camera. I called vivitar and the customer service rep told me i had to send the defaulted camera in and i would get a new one. after almost 2weeks of waiting i called again the customer service rep then in formed me that the new camera had not even been sent out and that it was going to take 4weeks for the claim to be processed and then i would get a new camera. when i told the rep that i wanted my money back i was told that it wasnt in their policy to refund and that i was going to have to wait the 4weeks. when i spoke to the supervisor who was not much help either he futher explained that it was going to be a month before i recieved the new camera. i would not recommed this product to anyone. if anything goes wrong you'll be talked in cirlces and it'll be at LEAST a month before you even recieve a new product that you dont know may be faulty also.

    Customer Service

    Very Very poor

    This fall I purchases 10 Vivitar 3800N film cameras for my Beginning Photography class that I teach. Six of the cameras arrived with faulty light meters and just yesterday another stopped working. I am exchanging all seven as they are under warranty. However, I am extremely disappointed with Vivitar customer service. When I called to ask if there was something I should have known about to make the light meters operate, and to let them know that 7 out of 10 products were faulty, the prepresentative was not at all helpful; he gave me a false explaination that all electronics will become unstable after sitting on the shelf for a year or two. He clainemed that thier product was not faulty but rather explained that I should expect onr or two items to be faulty, but then said that the cameras were not defective. When I repeated that 7 out of 10 cameras had faulty light meters, he could not give me an explaination but rather defensive.

    I most likely will choose another product when I have the opportunity to purchase equipment for my school.
