Weekend Warrior.'s review of Konica Revio KD-100

“I liked this Konica Revio KD-100 digital camera from...”

★★☆☆☆

written by Weekend Warrior. on 29/08/2002

Good Points
Small, easy to use, good quality images, clear images on LCD screen, Flash!

Bad Points
Broke after 2 weeks of light use (will not turn on), uses batteries like there's no tomorrow (set of Duracells last approx 25-30 pics with flash, Only 15 sec of video with no sound, need to buy additional memory >32mb.

General Comments
I liked this Konica Revio KD-100 digital camera from the outset for its specification, style and price. It's small, easy to use, looks good and takes great photos. However, mine has broken already (will not turn on - no the batteries aren't dead!) and when it did work, it used batteries really fast. Approximately 25-30 pics with flash from a set of Duracells (to see example photos click on the recommended website link)

Ultimately, I am taking this camera back for a replacement which has rechargeables, video clips >15secs with sound and is more durable.

Big mistake - NEVER use Duracells or any other non-rechargeable battery type in a digital camera.

<br>Using 1800mAh NiMH recharageables will give you 3-4 times the amount of pictures.

I had the same problem with my camera braking the 1st night we got it!
<br>we had full batteries in and the battery display wouldnt recognise them as full batteries, and wouldnt turn on, or would switch off in 5 secs.
<br>Have taken the camera back (perhaps a design fault?) and have a new shiny replacement. Didnt know about about the battery type advice though.
<br>cheers

Took the camera back I was so disgusted with it and the shop where I bought it gave me the same advice about 1800mAh rechargeables. So having bought some, the battery life is much better, but the jury is still out on the reliability and durability aspects.
