... accessible and easy to understand. My older children ranging in age from 8 - 13 have all used this camera successfully. I might add without anyone showing them how to or asking permission! Features: The internal memory is small at 32MB so you do need a flash memory card. The camera will work with Multimedia Card, SD Memory Card and SDHC Memory Card. This camera can also record video. Useful feature but quality wouldn't be anything like you would get with your average video recorder. It has a built in flash and red ey...more

I bought this camera when it first came out a few years ago. I wanted a high quality easy to use digital camera. Appearance: The camera is small but not tiny. It fits easily in a handbag and just about in a gent's shirt or trouser pocket. It is more bulky than the new models. The outer casing is very similar to stainless steel. It's very durable and robust. My camera has been dropped several timeless and is none the worse for it. The screen is smaller than some of HP's newer models. But it's not a problem to use. Easy of Use: Well this camera is pretty straight forward. Not a lot of frills here. The setup and display menus are accessible and ... Read the complete review

Well........................I bought this delightful camera last February. It came complete with a Photosmart c3180 all in one printer. All for £99 in Argos!! Lovely!!! It reall appealed to me as it had some good features. It has 7MP's, thats really good for the price I paid, it even has anti - redeye and auto focus. So I returned home with 2 boxes, one was rather large the other a smallish size. The large box contained the All in one printer and the other had the camera in it, obviously!! Box's were very well packaged, the camera was in the usual egg box moulding with lots of wrapping to stop it from shaking around. The printer ... Read the complete review

This camera has a nice build to it,being fairly slim (mind you not super slim,otherwise there would be little quality) with a nice silver,clean finish.The large screen allows (2.5inch) a good view of what your going to capture,although the quality of viewing pictures on the screen is VERY poor,it squeezes the image and makes it look like the camera has some sort of capture problem,but by simply uploading it onto the computer with a larger screen,the quality stands out a lot better. The quality of the photo's is perfect for general use,on holiday or where ever. The camera comes with the option to record videos,but you have to speak quite loudly from a distance ...
