1 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS!   December 9, 2003

Since the day I got this camera it never worked right. At first it was just the fact that the serial connection did not work. So for awhile it took great pictures and they printed very nice! Then it started draining the batteries. Then it just stopped working. Polaroid has done nothing to help me. Not since the day I bought it. Then I also went and bought another polaroid camera and it doesnt work either. And I inquired with polaroid again, and they still haven't helped me! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY! The are horrid and do not care about their customers. And their cameras dont work. There have been hundreds of these cameras (this particular model) on ebay that are non working and being sold for parts! As is mine! BEWARE!

i bought this camera a few days ago and already put it through its paces,i have had no problems with picture quality for a [reasonably priced} camera,
it doe's blur when someone moves as do most really [ reasonably priced]
i bought it only for personal use to take pics of family and friends and it doe's me fine
i took a few pics at max res and they came out very good in my opinnion.
like i say for a [reasonably priced] cam it does the job, but if your looking for the semi pro cams then you'll pay closer to [money amount] or more
so basically it all depends what you want to use the camera for



1 out of 5 stars 1 star is not low enough   December 8, 2002

I have had this so called camera for 4 months, tried every possible setting to stop an over exposed light condition. This causes faded pictures. No wonder Polaroid is going broke. This may have a flash, but it is totally worthless. I have a cheap intel CS630 that will take great pictures, just point and shoot.

I had this camera and took pictures but could not get the software to load. I contacted Polaroid on the 800 number and the
person I spoke with told me they were having problems. He was NO help. I went to website and entered my question. After ONE week of back and forth with so called technicians, they finally suggested that I bring it back and buy another camera. I took his advice and brought it back. After not getting any help from them I also told them I would Never buy another Polaroid! They didn't seem upset, but I have changed all my family and friends away from their cameras. They should just close their website and 800 number if their own technicians suggest buying another camera. Don't waste your time on this. If you do buy a Polaroid, make sure you can return it before you buy.

I've owned this camera for 3 yrs and am buying 2 more of them today for my children and their families. It is SO VERY easy to use and is perfect for a biginner. It takes BEAUTIFUL pictures that I e-mail to my family and post on the web. I let my grandchildren use it all they wanted while they were here on vacation (ages 7 to 11) and when they left and I looked at the pictures they took, I found that I have some of the most memorable vacation pictures ever!!!! You can't beat this camera for the price, the ease of use, and the quality of pictures!
