It takes good pictures but only on sunny days.indoors you really can't.good web cam.better then other expensive brands.you need like 2 lamps by your pc to look clear on the web.Although it takes 4 hours for it to recharge on your pc its a good value for kids who break things fast and for those who need one right away.

I bought it.. installed EVERYTHING and it still says i dont have the hardware installed. [*] IT SUCKS.

I use this in my job taking photos of illegally parked vehicles. It does the job and has ended alot of disputes. As soon as I bring up the photo conversation changes to "where can I pay this". Indoors in good lighting its adequate. For the money this one can't be beat. I love it.

it is soooo fun to play with it i do almost all the time

Simply wonderful...as with any camera that does'nt have a built in flash, one can expect to prove your own light while indoors at night for quality outcomes! You do'nt have to be a wiz to no that..this 3-in one is truly a wonderful device...I love mines..and would recomend it to anyone who likes wonderful products in small packages A+ radio shack/ arcsoft for this great product...Thank You!

Wonderful camera! But make sure you are outside when taking pictures.I was hassled with the problem of trying to take pics inside and I thought the battery was low.It is easy once you get the hang of it!!

piece of trash. it will ***ONLY*** take pictures in very bright sunlight. i tried taking a photo in my room at night and all that i got was the computer screen. worthless.

This little camera shoots a nearly 3 min video, and has a great lens for its size and price. Just keep it charged -- but not overcharged.

excellent

Ilove it. It has lovely digital qualities and you can use it as a survillieance camera. Love It

Scarcely 5 weeks after purchase, it crashed!!! Despite claims to the contrary, there is no troubleshooting guide included with the camera. It now is impossible to turn the thing on or off, anymore!! It is supremely unreliable!! When one needs it to work, it most certainly will not!!

My 11 and 12 Yr. Old received this camera for Christmas. Yes, the instructions were hard to follow, but once you got the hang of it, it's really easy to do. You do need direct light because there is no flash.The web cam and the video are cool.The pictures are easy and fun to download. Over all,my sons have a blast with these cameras, so in my book, it's worth the $15.

Here's the lowdown: The camera is great for pocket etc., but it is an outdoor camera. It can, however, take video, and is a nice PC Cam. Most reviews are right: The manual is hard to understand with typos etc, the manual does not cover everything exactly, and information that doesn't add up. It will only take pictures in high light conditions. It has speed and blur problems. The nice thing is you can put in in your pocket, it isn't much bigger than a stubbled-down pencil, and as wide as a quarter on top. The software for downloading is a breeze. It's nice for $15, but don't expect too much. Good buy for the money.

This product is horrifyingly bad. I recieved it as a gift. The pictures it takes (and will only take outside in the sunlight) is worse than most any cellphone out there. The usability of this device is one of the worst I have ever seen. It has literally laughable user friendliness. Of course, I knew what to expect when I realized that the instruction manual and the software included were written by a company ( DIGIGR8? ) that clearly had decided it wasn't worth hiring a translator for its english customers. It reads like japanese translated roughly by Google. Yes, I realize this is a 15-dollar investment: it isn't worth 5 dollars.

an absolute piece of junk that disappointed my children greatly! The instructions are unintelligible, the camera is difficult to use, and the only pictures you can take ( assuming all else works) are those aimed directly at the light( in our case,over the heads of the subjects. Apparently having an object in your picture blocks too much light). Do not buy!Do not buy! Do not buy!!!

I agree manual needs to be redone. Not clear assumes you understand tech language. Customers need a 1-2-3 how to.

This camera is awesome!!! That's all I'll say. I'd recommend everyone to buy it!!

the software does not work for mac

This camera is OK-ish. The quality is less than desirable, and it refuses to take pictures if there's not enough light present, and there's no flash, so this is mainly an Outdoor-only camera. For the price, it's a good deal though. Nice stocking-stuffer.

very nice... good idea... I'd pay more for a better one, though. Still charging atm... owners manual needs to be re-done, it's way too confusing.

this camera is alsome easy to use

the camera is easy to use if the instructions are read thourally.The instructions are the most difficult thing to understand. they use different words for the the same things.(dosn't make since).the camera dosn't work well inside unless your house is well lite.most of the reviews are correct when they say the quality is not that good. the idea is good though. the camera needs to be improved

Easy to use (if you take 2 min to read the manual), lots of features, great price, and downloads pix to any folder you want. Software installs on XP fine if you go to My Computer, select CD Drive, and select install program.

Mind everyone this isnt a 23 megapixel camera or anything so it's not like you can make a nice 11X16 print with it but for a little camera to carry around in the pocket, it's great and compared to others that are similar, the quality of the pics rules.

it's horrible, the worst I have seen

Too difficlut to master the modes. Too long before ready to take next picture.

Camera wont load on windows xp. Only works on win. 98. No support can be found on web.Read various reviews about people having the same loading problems!!! Disk just speeds up and then slows down continously.Sorry I bought it!

GREAT!
