Best in price!

(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Nov 3, 2002 (College Place, WA United States)
I got this camera at[locAL STORE] (GASP!)for [MONEY], and for the price, it's great! It takes multi-media cards so you can expand the memory, and the pictures are clear. My only criticisms are that the LCD screen is usually too dark for sighting subjects, but it does a good job of showing a thumbnail of the picture taken; and that it takes about 10 seconds from the taking of a picture with the flash until the camera's ready to shoot again. Still, for the price, it cannot be beat as a snapshot camera. It also handles moderate subject movement well. I haven't taken a blurry picture yet. My first digital was a Precor DL-520. Every picture from that thing was blurry! Go with the Concord. It won't break your heart.

Best Choice

(5 out of 5) by Tomas Galvez on Nov 19, 2002 (Lima, Peru)
I've just got mine! and it works just fine.It takes very good pictures plus it also records videos.The Lcd is a little to dark,while taking the pictures, but they look great on the Lcd while looking at the fotos in review mode .It works great with my computer.you can upgrade its memory with mmc cards.the pictures looked also great on the T.V.You can regulate the white and black balance.It comes with two batteries and an extra face plate.(I'll use rechargable batteries as soon as those are over )And for 99 bucks , it's the best you can get!

Awesome First Digital Camera

(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Feb 7, 2003 (Irvine, CA)
Bought it new at [...]for an unbelievable one-time sale price of [$$$}, which is amazing for a 1.3 mpix w/LCD screen that retails for over [$$$]! Took photos of MANY rock concerts and got surprisingly professional results. Off-loaded photos are great for postcard-sized photoprinting and excellent for the [world wide web]Menu-driven options for flash, WB, timer, video mode and editing(really just image deleting). Preview screen does not show thumbnails but does scroll and zoom. As a point-and-shoot camera, there is no optical zooming, but it has a digital zoom mode that works ok. There is a significant delay between shots, which gets progressively longer with older batteries. LCD will flash the image a few seconds after it was taken, which I find to be a good preview tool. Battery drain is always a problem with digital cameras... this camera is no different. Consider changing batteries every day for steady performance. 8MB memory holds about 30 hi-res photos, but a 64MB MMC holds about 100 more! Camera came with an extra metallic blue faceplate that pops-on the front and a tiny case that just holds the camera. Consider a good 3rd party case that provides space for plenty of AA cells. Suppied software utilites for image upload [is poor], editing software provides IMHO only a usable red-eye filter. Better yet, get a MMC reader and just use the supplied editing software for red-eye fixes, and use MS:Office PhotoEditor for color correction and editing. Not without flaws, but IMHO a cost-conscious option for an entry-level performance camera.

Super

(5 out of 5) by Joel on Apr 26, 2003 (Australia)
This camera is the best i've ever seen for the prize. Its got every thing that a casual user would need. The pictures are good, and you can expand the memory with SD/MMc cards and it has a decent colour LCD.

not bad at all for the $

(4 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Feb 19, 2003
Someone recomended it to me so I bought it. In my opinion it looks a little cheap, not quite as stylish looking as some other cameras, but it as quite a bit of functionality if you get familiar with its menu system.
I'm a wannabe professional photographer (more like an advanced amateur) so I'm pretty picky about resolution. The resolution is pretty good provided that there is good lighting (I found that in low light situations you get real grainy photos if you don't use the flash) It has some pretty cool preset modes (scenes): party(indoor), nightshot(long exposure no flash, looks like a moonlit scene), Sunset. If you play around with the White balance compensation which has presets for Auto,Daylight,Fluorescent and tungsten, you can come up with some interesting shots.
