Casio QV-R40 4 Megapixel Compact Camera - Silver

Casio QV-R40 4 Megapixel Compact Camera - Silver

Strengths: metal body, good photos, variety of modes, excellent close-ups, "best shot modes", white balance settings, etc

Weakness: only 10mb internal memory, no sound on video, no manual, awful software, etc

I like it because it is small and I can carry it in my pocket. This is the first digital camera I have been able to do this with. I carry it everywhere. It has a mostly metal body, which I prefer to plastic. It takes great photos and allows for many different modes or settings. It doesn't allow for manual aperture and shutter speeds, which for most digital cameras doesn't really matter. Digital...

Casio QV-R40 4 Megapixel Compact Camera - Silver

Strengths: Very fast startup; compact; easy menu choices and navigation

Weakness: Not really any for a camera in this price range.

I shopped forever for a compact digital camera and finally ended up buying the Pentax Optio S4--and then returning it. I found that the camera was actually too small and felt like it was going to "jump" out of my hands while using it. Also, the Optio felt a little "cheap" and uses a proprietary battery. So... I set out to find the smallest, reasonably priced, digital camera which took AA...

Casio QV-R40 4 Megapixel Compact Camera - Silver

Strengths: 1)Takes great pictures in day light 2)Pictures taken with flash look good, although more "white" than realistic. 3)Looks really cool. 4)Compact. 5)Very sturdy. 6)Easy to use.

Weakness: 1)Any pictures not using the flash or in high light situations (sunlight, etc) turn out blurry and are pretty poor. 2)The flash takes FOREVER to recharge. Approximately 7 (SEVEN!!!) seconds for the flash to recharge.

It is tiny, cheap, and most importantly takes amazing pictures. I use a nice Color Laserjet and these pictures print out crystal clear on full bleed 8.5 * 11 prints. The clarity is superb. The only thing that I would improve is being able to manually adjust the shutter speed. Nice camera

Casio QV-R40 4 Megapixel Compact Camera - Silver

Strengths: This camera is an exceptional value. Very happy with image quality output and ease of use. "Best Shot" autosetup of scenes well done. Small size, fast cpu, quick bootup, responsive trigger.

Weakness: Flash shot-to-shot cycle time is too long (9 sec+). At evening party, no AF illuminator = 5% bad photos. Had redeye problem with default settings. Needs thick plastic cover over the LCD screen.

This camera is presumably going to be replaced with the QV-R41 soon (with a bigger LCD screen). I've noticed the price has been dropping, and will probably continue to drop. The QV-R41 is already available in europe, the internet tells me. This camera fits the bill for someone looking for a high quality point and shoot smallish 4MP 3x optical zoom in a metal case, and because small electronics...

Casio QV-R40 4 Megapixel Compact Camera - Silver

Strengths: Compact, uses AA batteries, free charger included and batteries, uses SD/MMC media - widely available media, nice quality pictures and easy to use

Weakness: Silent movies, little bit of delay between flashes (but not as bad as the QV-R51), no case included and no SD/MMC card included

I really like this camera, it is small enough to be discrete in your pocket yet packs a powerful punch. If you look at price to performance ratio, this camera excels. It doesn't cost that much yet for the price you get a fully functionally quality digital camera. At 4 megapixels I can't complain. I took this camera around during my day to take random pictures and to see how the camera performed....

Casio QV-R40 4 Megapixel Compact Camera - Silver

Strengths: Ease of use, on screen display, AA batteries

Weakness: slightly bulkier than the ex-z3

For the money, there is no better camera than this one. Has anybody else seen a 4megapixel for ~$250? Extremely doubtful. If you are just getting into digital photography, this is the camera for you. It is much more than just point and shoot. You can control ISO, EV balance, white, and if you don't want to bother figuring out what those things are, there are preset shot modes to capture the best...

Strengths: It is light and the functions are easy to use. Most of the function is useful.

It is good for a beginner to practice and enjoy taking picture!! Good price!! There are ten different kinds of language in the digital camera, even though for the people who does know English it can learn to use easily.

Casio QV-R40 4 Megapixel Compact Camera - Silver

Strengths: It is a small and pretty camera. The price is unbelievable, and it is easy to use. I wasn’t sure of the quality for the price I paid, but it turned out to be better than my expectation.

Weakness: The user’s menu can be improved to provide more & better information, such as an index to find a topic.

I am not a professional photographer. I only want a camera that I can press a button when I need to take a picture. Considering the price for a 4.0 MP digital camera, this camera does what I am hoping for. It takes very clear pictures, and all what I need to do is to press the button. I am very happy with this little camera.
