Very neat and stylish, "fun" size and simple to use. :)
by golfnursey on February 25, 2009
Pros: For me this is everything I wanted. It's pretty, small (I have tiny hands) and simple to use. It does vid and pics, so it replaces my camera AND my camcorder, and is nowhere near as big as either of those. Download to laptop is super quick and easy.
Cons: NOT recommened for anyone with large (or even medium) sized hands. It doesn't come with an SD card, which is essential for it to be any real use. Don't like that you need to remove the battery to charge it, so it really needs a spare or two.
Summary: I love this camera as it is really girlie. I have the pink one, and it is so cute. I fell in love with it immediately. Don't get me ...
Summary: I love this camera as it is really girlie. I have the pink one, and it is so cute. I fell in love with it immediately. Don't get me wrong, I am no Paris Hilton and I don't just go for style, but this really caught my eye. The quality is perfect for home vid purposes, and it takes great photos too. I figured out how to use it in just a few minutes of messing, without picking up the manual. Not bad for someone like me who is a bit technically challenged.
The pink metal/chrome finish is lovely and doesn't show up finger marks or scratch too easily, so it looks good for ages. I do wish it had come with a case tho. It really needs one as the only real criticism I have is that it feels a little fragile in places. I wouldn't want to drop it as it has a lot of plastic on it that would probably chip or crack quite easily.
All in all, if you want something fun and trendy, stylish and portable, for messing around and always having it handy, I would whole heartedly recommend this product. It is cute and very easy to use. I would say it is aimed at kids and young adult girls (my eight year old has had loads of fun with it), although it's a little too pricey for what it is. If it was priced about £95 it would be perfect.
One feature I love is that because it uses an SD card instead of tapes or discs, I can film messages, plug the SD card into my wii (as it is compatible) and send the message to my family in Germany. Much nicer than e-mailing, and I can use the wii to back up all my pics and vids too. Fab! -
I am an IDIOT...bought for "good deal" of $600.
