Review 4 of 24
Summary: I bought this camera about 8 months ago on eBay for about $130 after shipping. I must say that it has been one of the best purchases I have made. Great for business and pleasure. Strengths: -USB support makes downloading pictures fast and reliable
-4MB built in memory card
-Option to expand to a 96 MB compact flash card for practically unlimited high quality pics
-Great quality in any mode
-nice flaps to keep the USB, Serial, TV, power adapter and memory card slots clean.
-nice viewfinder
-Perfect weight: not too heavy, yet sturdy in your hand
-doesn't eat batteries as long as the lcd screen isn't used all the time.
-drivers and software make a great bundle
-with a nice printer(IE HP line) makes wonderful photos that look like regular 35MM!
-Good Bargain for the money Weaknesses: -Auto power down(can be annoying at times, can be turned off)
-flash takes a long time to loadup after use
-takes a while to get used to all the features(for example there is an indoor lighting feature, outdoor, indoor with artificial light, and auto-auto is not always the best choice and sometime pictures will come out red and grainy indoors Similar Products Used: My father owns a Konica Q Mini. That camera is wonderful, and I have found that my MDC 800 has the same features and then some with better picture quality! The MDC 8000 feels and looks like a normal camera while the Q mini is ackward during picture taking Customer Service: Never had to use their customer service, so far their product has served me well with no problems!
