Toshiba PDR-3320 3.2MP Digital Camera w/ 3x Optical Zoom

- Responsive zoom feature.

- Easy to use software (similar to Photoshop, etc.)

- Easy to interface camera and TV for slideshows. All the appropriate plugs are included.

Bad:

- Like many digital cameras, this model eats batteries. However, I think this one goes through them much faster than others I've experienced.

- Short battery life means that its useless to set the date because as soon as you change the batteries you have to re-set the date/time, which isn't easy because:

- The cross pad is not responsive. Its small size makes selecting menus options difficult.

- The manual is obviously written by non-English speakers. The poor syntax makes reading some of the instructions difficult.

- Long lag time between clicking the button and taking the picture.

I've owned this camera for more than a year, and use it several times a week. It's easy to use, very dependable (I run it with rechargable AA batteries) and the price, even when I initially bought it, was right. It's even more affordable now. I recommend the Toshiba PDR 3320 as an excellent entry-level camera.


Best digital Camera For the money!   January 2, 2003

I've tried my fair share of digital cameras in my day and i have to say,... this camera brings you 3.2 megapixels and great features.
This camera has 3x optical zoom and 2x digital zoom which will be more than enough for anyone short of a profesional photographer.
The only drawback to this camera is the memory card (8mb on a 3.2 megapixel camera won't get you too many pictures) and the LCD display: I've noticed its always easier to use the viewfinder to take pictures and use the LCD display to review them.
