    I bought this camera in March 1999 and I still love it. I've taken pictures with it from coast to coast including aerials. Quality is good enough for what I'm looking for (recording trips with quick results). Uploading the images to computer can't get any easier than this.

    Got this Camera because Id rather have a stack of floppy disks than spend a fortune on flash cards. Transfer to PC is much simpler too. Resolution seems good. Optical zoom is upto 10x which is all I need. Money well spent.
