Looks like it's definitely a step up from what I call a "cardboard
camera," those little disposable ones that shoot film, but it's still a
step down from a "real" camera, one that has a zoom lens and at least
some controls over exposure.
In other words, sounds like a solid deal for the price. Especially if
you want to give it to a 6-year old, and 87-year old, or shoot pics at
the soccer game (the three reviews on the site). 🙂 I looked for
product reviews elsewhere but didn't see any, probably because it's
pretty new. Note the one review indicated it's not very good for
indoors, which was the impression I got from reading the specs. Still,
for just carrying along on the trail, it should do a much better job
than no camera, or a heavy, breakable camera.
For myself, I'll still stick with something that has a zoom lens,
manual controls and sound on the video (not sure if it has that). If
you buy, I recommend getting an SD card and using a card reader to
download your photos. The USB interface is 1.1, which is sloooooow.
