Customer Rating:
Summary: Fun to use GREAT pictures
Comment: This camera is phenomenal. I originally had a Nikon Coolpix and was VERY unsatisfied with it. This camera's options are SO easy to use and take beautiful pictures. A+++++++
Customer Rating:
Summary: Nice camera!
Comment: I bought this pink camera for my 8 yr old daughter who enjoys taking pictures. She has slowly progressed to this level throughout the years. We started off with disposable and then handed down our hand me down cameras as we bought more advanced ones. She loved her camera and we find it to be easy to use for any age- colorful and has a lot more function then my Canon ELF. It even has a panoramic shot feature! It is a little slow on the shutter when taking a foto- but other then that it is awesome. We wanted a camera that didnt need AA batteries and included its own battery with charger and we could not beat the price we got it for. It is a super camera. It is so user friendly that I am considering buying one for my 80 yr old Mom.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Nice features but too flimsy
Comment: The camera takes very good pictures and movies.
Unfortunately I owned it for about a month before the LCD display cracked. Pentax considers cracked displays a non-warranty repair and the repair costs more than the new camera. Considering the camera wasn't dropped or abused, I was very disappointed.
This is my 4th digital camera. I have also owned several PDAs. I've never had a problem with a cracked display or any other mechanical failure until now.
When engineers design a product, they have to balance cost, durability, weight and other factors. While this camera has a lot of nice features for its price, it is just way too flimsy to be a good deal.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Mostly good. A couple of small complaints.
Comment: First the positives:
- The screen is large and clear.
- Camera body is compact and seems very durable.
- The menus are surprisingly easy to navigate considering how much functionality is crammed into this tiny device. The manual is over 200 pages long; you'd expect this to mean the camera is complex to use, but it's actually very intuitive.
- Auto focus works well, even at very close distances, and the shots are clear and free of shake.
- Mounts up to a computer just like any standard USB device. F-Spot under Linux sees it just fine.
Now the negatives:
- Focal length of the lens is such that indoor shots tend to curve straight lines at the edges of the frame.
- Has USB connection, yet will not charge the battery through it. You have to remove the battery from the camera to charge it.
- Charger is small and light, but its power cord is large and heavy. This means the charger rarely stays where you put it; the cord's weight pulls it off the table. I solved this problem with an old cord and a plug (see pix: http://www.xec.net/charger2.jpg and http://www.xec.net/charger3.jpg). But most people probably will not want to tinker this way.
Some people have complained that it does not have an optical viewfinder. I rarely ever used the optical viewfinders on my previous digital cameras so this does not bother me.
All in all I like it much better than the Kodak it replaced.
