People who have purchased this camera describe it as a good camera for first-time users especially young teen-agers: it”s cute, it”s light, it easily fits into a pocket, it”s easy to use, and it seems to be priced with this young demographic in mind, coming in at around $65.00 US.
Many users complain about the photo quality, stating that even in moderately well-lit indoor settings photos are too dark without the flash, but that photos come out too bright with the flash or outside on a bright day”sometimes to the point of washing out people”s faces. However, this problem seems to be more pronounced when the subjects photographed are close to the camera”subjects further away photograph better.
Some users also complain that the LCD display is too dark when used indoors as well. In addition, the LCD goes black for a few seconds after a photo, which some users find frustrating. On a bright note, the LCD is considered large enough to be eye-friendly.
The lack of a view finder is aggravating to users who are used to having this functionality in their digital cameras. Users sometimes find background objects to be out of focus. However, users do find it easy to upload photos from the camera to the computer.
Bottom line: it”s a good camera for younger first-time users who will be more excited about owning a pink camera than being discerning about the quality of pictures they take.
