Author's Review
I bought this camera at Circuit City, thinking it was a good bargain; however, my Canon point and shoot was less expensive and easier to use.
Photos are difficult to get to come out clear and more often, they are blurry.
As other writers have said, still photos with plenty of light come out fine, but forget it if anyone moves. The button has to be held in longer than any camera I've ever owned.
The clerk who sold me the camera told me that ordinary AA batteries are fine. Then when I read the instructions, I saw that alkaline batteries will damage the camera.
I should have returned the camera right away, but I kept thinking I was the one making mistakes.
I'm wiser now, and if I ever buy another camera that I'm displeased with, I'll return it forthwith.
