Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $299.00 from Minoxlab.com

Summary:

This camera is not ment to be a workhorse, but it sure is a fun camera to own and use, especially if you get the optional flash. It shouldn't be your only digicam, but it is great converstion starter at social events. You are paying for style rather features, but it still makes good photos.

Strengths:

It looks good, it is easy to use, and it is easy to transfer photos to your computer.

Weaknesses:

VERY LONG shutter delay. Poor viewfinder. No removable storage. Shuts off after 30 seconds, settings go back to default every time it shuts off. Flash will over expose on close-ups, but is fine at normal distances.

Similar Products Used:

Minolta Dimage 7. Kodak digital point and shoot.

Customer Service:

Minox Lab is having trouble with their web site. They are loosing everyone's order. You need to call them on the phone if you want your order filled. (This may explain why all the discount stores are back ordered. Their orders haven't been filled if they ordered on the web. Minox Lab says their programers are trying to fix the web site. In the mean time, all web orders get lost.)
