Opinion: I've been using this camera for almost two years, taking more than 1400 pictures. Image quality is good, with nice, saturated and realistic colours. The camera is mostly right with it's automatic exposures. Print-outs (glossy, i.e.) are good at 4"x6", and still reasonably detailed at 5"x7", with sometimes astonishing colours. With the optional tele-lens and wide-angle lens (the latter less recomended than the first) and an optional polarizing filter, and playing with the exposure compensation, you can get surprinsing outdoor- and indoor pictures. Macro's are difficult, even with special lenses (it's a fixed-focus camera).

All together, a great replacement for any point-and-shoot 35 mm camera. It's not pocket-size, however, and rather heavy. You also need to buy NiMH batteries immediately and always bring a spare set of batteries.

If you don't want to spend for those mini-digital point-and-shoot cameras, consider the DC200+

Problems: The lens-cover is lousy, serial connection is slow and camera occasionally shuts itself of during long transfers. Consider a USB card-reader.

Opinion: I got tihs camera when it was top of the line. I still use this camera today and I can say that it is still good after 3 or so years! It's great for web photos and 4x6 prints. It is excellent on sunny days. Battery life is not the best. Hey this is a great camera overall!

Problems: I damaged the LCD so that I can only see from half of the screen, but the camera is still functional.

Opinion: I've had this camera for three years now and I'm very pleased with it. I've taken over 16,000 pictures and It's still chugging away. My new Nikon CP-990 has taken the place of this old guy but my wife and children continue to use it with great success.

Problems: None
