This camera is wonderful. It\'s got a low resoulition, so it\'s a little impractical to expect high-quality photos from it. I wouldn\'t nessesarally take my vactation photos on it, but I use it when I want to grab an image fast, to remember what something might look like, etc. And I also use it for ebay auctions and sending photos via e-mail.

The best part of the camera is that it can connect to any TV with an RCA video-in jack, meaning you can show the pictures on just about any TV. Not only that, but you can hook it directly up to a digital projector and use it for a slide show presentation without having to use a laptop. A little-known fact is that you can load images onto the camera, so you can take screenshots of power-point presentations and save them as JPG files on the camera. Then just attach the RCA cord from the camera to a digital projector or a TV. Great for people who don\'t have a laptop, but have a job where they meet clients and need to show them some form of presentation. For example, a real-estate ageant would love this camera.

So basically, this isn\'t a digital camera you would want to make prints off of, but great for anything else. Many people forget that you don\'t need a high-end camera if you don\'t need high quality print-outs.

Other advantages of it would be it\'s size. Very small, about 3"x2"x1". It doesn\'t have a preview screen that would find on a high-end/avarage digital camera, but that\'s usally not a big problem if you have a TV near by.

It\'s very simple and so is the software. When you have it plugged-into a USB port, the USB port will power the camera to save your batteries while downloading images.

This camera does what it was built to do, and at a very good price. Not all cameras fit all needs, but give this one a chance and you might find that it does what you need it to do.
