If you like blurry, dark and featureless photos this...

Strengths: Can be used as a webcam

Weakness: Everything else

I received this camera from an auto manufacturer to take photographs of paint defects that would be covered under the vehicle's warranty IF I could get a decent photo of them. This auto manufacturer must be the most shrewd business that I've ever encountered. If you can't capture it in a photograph here at the dealership level how exactly are we enabled to service and support our customers. I am...

Don't even think about it!

Strengths: None

Weakness: Everything

What good are all the options and "5MP" if the pictures are crap. I agree with every preceding negative comment. Ambient light pictures are blurry and flash pictures are over-exposed. This camera is junk!! Worse than that, I lost the receipt!! Take the money you were going to spend on this thing and spend it on a name brand for the same price with less MP. I have an old 1.3MP Olympus Camedia that...

Strengths: Price

Weakness: Blurry photos

Typically, I don't write reviews unless I think my experience will help others folks out there. My take on this is that what good is a camera if you can't see the photos, no matter how cheap it is? Give it to your five year old as an expensive toy. And yes it's made in China as all toys are nowadays. My photos came out more than 50% blurry with ridiculous amount of light on some photos when using...

Good features for the money, but not great pics

Strengths: The price is great for a 5 megapixel camera.

Weakness: Inside pictures are usually very dark or the person is white from the flash. Battery power goes fast.

I am NOT getting good pictures with this camera. It takes a long time from when you push the button to when the camera takes the picture. My inside pictures are very dark or the subject is washed out from the flash. If the battery is low, the flash will not turn on. My camera seems to have some bugs in that it will often not turn on or will turn off while I'm using it(not the timed off function)....

Great for the Price

Strengths: Low price, lots of features, decent quality

Weakness: Blurry at 5MP & 10 MP, colors not rich, slow processor, reverts to "no flash" setting every time it turns off

I'm glad I read the review saying to read the directions carefully and follow them. This is not an intuitive camera. There were about 4 different settings that I had to adjust before my pictures started turning out right. Once I got the hang of it, though, I was pleased with the results. Shooting in the 3MP and fine modes produces reasonably sharp pictures. The flash pictures in the dark and...

kcnlexi

Strengths: Good Price, for camera and features. Comparable to the other cameras offered on Black Friday

Weakness: Processor could be faster to expose the pictures quicker

Pictures taken without the flash in the proper lighting, ie, outside looks great. If you follow the recommendations not to zoom in too far on subject that is too far away. As far as taking flash pictures, choosing the proper light exposure is key to getting the right pictures with out too much bright light. Also not having your subject to close. Helps to have a little experience with taking...

Good picture quality

Strengths: 5.1 MP res, easy to use, 32MB int memory, uses 2 AA battery

Weakness: Required exposure adjustment. No optical zoom.

Got the camera for $80 in 2005. Was pleasantly surprised at the quality of pictures. It was very easy to use. Took very good pictures, even from inside the car at 70mph. Has 32MB internal memory. Avg pic size was 350k with '1024x980' res and 'Fine' pic quality. Can get about 100 good quality pics with the internal memory itself. It did require trying out the settings for exposure adjustment....

~~~~~ Piece of JUNK ~~~~~

Strengths: CHEAP (Bought on "black-Friday sale for $90.00)

Weakness: BLURRY "NON-FLASH" pics, "Flash" pics makes person disappear and pic looks like you took a pic of nothing other than a "ball of light"

CHEAP-O! Bought for mom for Christmas, 2005. Opened it to set it up for her so she would not have to worry about it. "No flash" pics BLURRY! "FLASH" pics made person look like ball of blinding light...couldn't even make out their faces! I returned it the same day (BLACK FRIDAY). I just feel sorry for the people who bought these as gifts for Christmas and won't find out how horrible it is until...

DXG - 568 Digital Camera

Strengths: This is a great low end digital camera that once learned and become familiar with is fun and easy to use. It is great for outdoors and good to fair for indoors pictures.

Weakness: The indoors pictures may not come out as well in low to dark light conditions and may need a few shots to get the exposure value and flash right.

Over all I am extremely happy with the DXG-568 Digital camera. My photos taken outside have been crisp and clean. My indoors photos after sometimes needing minor adjustments have been good. The camera can be hard on regular batteries but if you use high end lithium for digital cameras or rechargeables you get great battery life. Also by turning off the volume on the camera when taking stills it...

For the price I paid for such digital camera, I...

Strengths: 5.1 megapixel, 4x digital zoom, 1.5" TFT LCD screen, voice recorder, USB 2.0 interface

Weakness: the camera drains the alkaline batteries pretty quick, slow shutter speed.

I paid only $80 for this camera at a local retail store. For indoors, pictures come out a bit fuzzy; but for outdoors, pictures are really good. I went with a set of rechargable NiMH batteries and they last about 5 times longer than the alkaline ones. So, I would recommend those who have purchased this camera, you should buy a charger and couple rechargable NiMH batteries. Of course, if you're a...
