Good For Casual Fun April 25, 2006

Alot of the reviews for this camera compare it's quality to those other newer cameras. Of course this camera is going to be a little less quality... it's 1.2MP!! duh.
Bottom line, this camera's main downside is it's battery consumption. Get some rechargables and problem solved. When you print out photos on standard size photo paper, the prints don't look too bad. Thus this camera is good for going to the beach, having fun around the house, etc. If you're looking to do more serious photography, pay more and get a higher megapixel. But this one will do for casual stuff.

I bought this cause I needed something fast and didn't want to spend a lot of money. The unit ok ok. It eats batteries fast and picture quality is mediocre at best. I should have ponied up the cash for a better camera.
 Don't bother, even for the low price November 26, 2002

For the price, I might have accepted the noisy images, the blurry focus, and the slow response time when taking a picture. But the camera showed poor quality from the beginning, with a dim screen, flaky behavior when pressing the selector wheel, a battery cover that failed to stay closed, and poor compatibility with standard CF memory cards. Finally, within a year of purchase, the screen died and the picture counter failed.Oh, and the rebate that was offered at the time of sale was a scam. Lots of bouncing between Amazon and Polaroid before determining that the rebate was offered by the Polaroid distributer, whos non-toll-free number hangs up after five minutes on hold. All in all, the aggravation wasn't worth the difference in price.

I have had the Polaroid PhotoMax PDC 1100 digital camera for over two years now. I really like it, it has performed well. However, I must mention two items I needed to purchase in order to make this a great camera:
1. AA battery charger, saves a lot of money on batteries. 2. Extra flash memory. I bought 64 MB of flash memory which is actually over kill. I can now get approx. 108 photos on super quality (the top choice).
Keep in mind that the above purchases can be used in many other electronic hardware, so the purchase was not only isolated for the use with the digital camera.
Update Dec. 2005.
My camera finally died. It was the battery compartment that was the weak spot. I had to use duck tape for a couple of years to keep the battery door closed. But now it is not working even with good batteries in it.

Okay two years ago, but I'd go with something else now. August 30, 2002

When I got this camera back in 2000, it cost about twice as much as it does now, and it was pretty good when compared to what else was available in the price range. This camera could certainly still be useful, particularly if you are using your pictures for a website, or some other low-resolution purpose. However, having used several other digital cameras since then, this really pales in comparison to what is available out there now. I would suggest spending maybe fifty dollars more, and getting a camera with optical zoom and more megapixels. This just has digital zoom, which turns out fairly grainy, and even on the highest resolution setting, it really isn't all that sharp.The other problem with this camera is the little wheel you turn to make menu selections. Within a month or so, it was already not working well. It's kind of hit or miss now as you turn the wheel to get it to stop where you want it to. My father had this same camera, and his wheel wore out quickly as well. If you want to buy this camera, I would suggest buying a used one, and using it to familiarize yourself with digital photography. If you are at all serious about taking good photographs, you are inevitably going to want to upgrade, so I would spend as little as possible on a camera like this one. If you're just looking for something basic to take snapshots and email to your friends, there are much cheaper models out there that could accomplish that.
