 Not bad, for the price May 11, 2007
S. K. Mcclune (Denver, CO USA)
This was my second digital camera, and overall I have been happy with it. I did have one problem with it -- not quite three months after I bought it, it suddenly stopped working. Since it was still under warranty, I contacted the company. They exchanged it promptly for a new camera, which has worked fine ever since. That was about three years ago.
The picture quality is very good; I've had a number of photos printed at up to 8" x 10", and people who have seen them are amazed that they came from a digital rather than a film camera (and a 3 megapixel one, at that).
My biggest complaint about the camera is its speed. The shutter lag (the time between the time you press the button and the time the picture is recorded) is significant, as is the processing time between shots. Also, because the lens has to extend every time the camera is turned on, it takes a long time before it's ready for the first shot. The motor that extends the lens is also noisy.
It's also a bit of a battery hog. I had four sets of rechargables that I used to carry along, just to make sure I wouldn't run short of power at a critical moment.
Overall, though, I was very satisfied with this camera, and still use it on occasion.

I purchased the camera from HSN.com after watching the impressive demonstration. I it worked well at first. I added 256 MB flashcard and it got very quirkey. I sent it back and they replaced it with the same result. I used a different smaller flashcard and it worked OK for a short while. Then it started having problems capturing the shot. The shots would be fuzzy or completely black if they did register having taken. This is a camera I would advise everyone to keep away from based on my experience.
 Great Camera !!! December 15, 2005

If you're looking to print upto 5"x7" pictures, this is a great camera. Takes very good pictures. I have mine for a year now. Always reliable. Just get a photo editing and organizing software, and rechargable batteries, and you're good to go.
A basic throw away digital camera December 26, 2004

My father bought 3 of these cameras in April 2004 and only one works periodically. They eat batteries as do all digital cameras so make sure you have plenty on hand if you don't buy rechargable batteries. The cameras all worked so awesome for the first few months. I used mine the most and it was the first to die. The pictures start coming out blurry and then sometimes the camera would turn on and then shut off or would not come on at all. I lost the screen on the top first and then the lcd screen went wacky. I have pictures of my newborn stuck in the camera and am unable to retrieve them. If you want to spend $100.00-$189.00 on a throw away digital camera then this one is for you!!!
Update review....do not deal with this company (Vivitar) July 9, 2004

Boy what a turnaround from my prev posting...The camera stopped working intermittantly...will not focus no how and take a picture...flash goes off..but nothing in the LCD or memory as a picture being taken. Turn it on and off a bunch of times and it will work....then next time you use the camera..it may or may not work until you turn it on and off again a bunch of times..and the battery signal meter is useless..it will show full strength and all of a sudden camera goes dead...needs more batteries. and the worst part of all is Vivitars customer service..or lack of..I called them 4 times...and its not a toll free #..and after 4 weeks..still no response..and I challenge anyone to find a way to email that co from their website..try it. after wasting an hour on it it tells you to sign up for this cumbersome EBOX system where someone will get back to you...same thing..after 4 weeks..no message from anyone..and they had the nerve to send me an automated email today saying my request was closed... CLOSED?? I never even got a response...trust me..stay away from this company..if you get lucky and get an ok camera..good for you..but pray you have no problems wiht it or you will experience their lack of customer service.
