Customer Reviews

I think people need to understand, at this price range, you are not going to get a top of the line camera. But the pictures are not terrible. There aren't a lot of extra features, but for my 8 1/2 year old, it was perfect. One drawback- no audio with video. That would be my only complaint. Good for the kids to begin on definitely

I bought this camera after my other was chewed up by a dog. I was looking for something that didn't have a lot of special features but took decent quality photos. I was greatly underwhelmed. Picture quality was crap. With all the settings on auto, it would take 5-7 seconds for the color to normalize before I could take the shot. If I took one before it did, the color would come out extremely orangey. Even if I waited to get the color decent, if one item moved in the shot or I moved the camera even slightly, the entire picture would come out blurry/unrecognizable. If you specifically selected all of the settings, some of the pictures would turn out better, but you had to go back through and reset the settings every time you turned the camera on. Even with flash, the photos taken in darker lighting were grainy, discolored, and out of focus. Whenever I zoomed in to an object, the photo got worse in quality (which is saying something). The only way you could tell what the photo was is if you were the one who took it and knew what it was supposed to be. Then, to top it all off, the camera quit working in less than a year. I would push the power button and it would start to turn on, but as soon as I let the pressure off the button, it out automatically power off. I managed to get a few pictures by taking the photo while holding down the power button, but that was very difficult to manage and the pictures weren't worth it anyway. I didn't even bother trying to return it as it was a rather cheap purchase to begin with. All I can say is that I will never buy another Vivitar item and I advise everyone I know against them.
