Not happy, not happy at all

I am not happy with this camera for many reasons:first off it has no optical zoom, it takes forever to save a picture, so you can not take a series of pics, it gives alot of red eye even when they option has been chosen for no red eye, the batteries run out quickly even the rechargeable,and about 70% of the time I can't take a picture at all.I called and was told that I had to hold the button down half way to focus, then all the way.Well I try and try and try and try and miss so many good pictures...

An excellent cheap camera for learning digital photography

I have the previous model A300 for about 2 years and have since taken more than 1000 pictures with it. It has given me satisfactory results most of the time and very good image quality considering its price. You can try out the various settings to get the desired results. I give it four stars because in dim light the camera doesn't always focus well. And the flash recharge cycle is a bit long.I used it heavily during my travels and it caused me no trouble....

A great product for a great price

I was looking for a good camera for a good price, and found the a310. Since I don't need great photos, even though this camera gives great photos, it's great. All the controls are very user friendly; you can switch from camera mode to movie taking mode with a mere switch, which brings me to the movie taking ability. Of course, you can't expect a great movie capability, but this camera sure covers what I need. With a decent sized card, you can get a whole lot of movies. However, on the highest resolution...

Great camera

This is an excellent camera and with an excellent price.I had no problems with this camera out of the box.It was simple to use and the picture quality is outstanding.The movie mode is great for taking short movies.The only complaint is taking multiple shots with the flash, it does take a little bit for it to recharge.Other than that, I love it!...

Great Starter Camera

I bought this camera on a friend's advice. I have been very happy with it. It is packed with loads of features. I find it easier to use than my old point and shoot analog camera. The only drawbacks are, battery life, and the small CF card it comes with. I bought a 512mb card which allows me 300+ pics on the highest setting. I also bought re-chargable NiMH batteries which give me about 200 pics before they need to be replaced....
