Opinion: Brilliant camera for lo-res photography, due it the impeccably poor image quality. A gem for any online lo-res groups. Otherwise quite limited.
Actuall I'd say very limited.
Problems: Shoddy battery compartment means I have to jam in aluminium foil in order to enable the batteries to make contact and camera to work.
Drivers for XP can be found, but requires quite a bit of searching.
Opinion: Not the lousiests cam I have own but not the best either. It was lousy already on it's days. Blurry pics, worthless flash, very low battery-life.
Problems: Broke by itself.
Lost pics from memory.
PC software didn't work.
Very fragile.
Opinion: WOW thats something.
Unbelievable stamina.
I can't break it. This thing is flying in my room from one corner to another and still works. Wow.
image quality extreemly bad. aware of this camera.
Problems: I need to hit it to the ground couple of times to make it work.
Opinion: This may have been a nice entry level camera 3 or 4 years ago but nowadays I can only describe it as a worthless gadget with horrible battery life, bad quality pictures and a useless flash.
The only good thing about it is that I learned from owning it that a really small camera is very practical and that inexpensive equipment is a less worrying when your 5 year old daughter also want to use it.
I got this camera for free and think even that is slighly overpriced for what it can do. They should have given money with it.
Problems: - Noisy pictures due to CMOS element instead of real CCD
- Flash won't always work
- Very slow shutter speed gives lots of blurred images
- Reddish or yellowish colour cast on most pictures
Opinion: Good VGA (640x480) resolution for a CMOS camera at under $100. (I paid $10). Only CCD sensor cameras beat it. Nice features for the price. Can take images under normal room lighting if camera on solid support to avoid movement. Does not take night pictures (e.g. outdoors). Flash does not take into account subject distance, so best shots are at about 4-6 feet. A worthwhile improvement can be made by downloading Irfanview viewer and using it's settings to sharpen (1 or 2 clicks) and occasionally increase Gamma (to about 1.20). Also, download the TWAIN driver for the RCA CDS1005 camera: it works much better than the Agfa one, and it does deletes much faster(camera appears as a removeable drive and you don't need the Corel software to download or delete). You also don't need an AC converter or battery power when downloading or using as a Webcam. It powers itself off the USB (see comments below in "Problems").
Problems: USB cover does get in the way somewhat when attaching cable. Takes a while to remember how to delete pictures in camera and how to change from NTSC to PAL for TV out, without referring to the manual. Pictures are not quite in focus at the edges, even after sharpening, but this is a very inexpensive camera now. The belt loop on the case tends to tear easily. You must use a powered hub if you don't connect to an internal USB port (uses 500ma). I posted a few sample images at

Opinion: Funny little cam with poor features and picture quality. Construction is pretty good because it is missing parts and still working [has fallen many times].
Problems: The system of the camera has been malfunctioning at times. I had to cut the speaker's wire too.
Opinion: hey,
i've dropped this thing way too many times for it to still be working as it does.
it's not a high res camera, but it's good and small, i bring it everywhere. not to mention,,,, if i break it/lose it, it's easy to replace!
I NEED HELP THOUGH.
i've moved to windows xp, and i can't get the web cam feature to work... tried all sorts of drivers,
a few people here have mentioned that they got it to work... PLEASE contact me
macnevin@hotmail.com
i can transfer pictures from camera no problem, but i can't get the web cam to work (streaming video)
thanks for any help,
Problems: no windows xp stream/web cam feature.
DAHHHHH
Opinion: Once in a while, you will be able to take a picture with this camera. The interaction between computer and camera is very slow (takes probably 10 or more seconds to delete a picture through computer). Color is usually not accurate, many pictures come out blurred. Picture does not line up with viewfinder.
Problems: Webcam feature won't work under XP, they are not working on any future drivers.
Opinion: I need to know how to use it as a web cam and also for and I-MAC cpu
