1 out of 5 stars Won't Work With Rechargable Batteries   October 6, 2008
Michael Clouser (Fort Wayne, IN USA)
Don't buy this camera!!! It will NOT work with NiMH batteries (the manual says it will work with NiMH) and it doesn't fully discharge alkaline batteries. I only got about 50 pictures on the included set of alkaline batteries.

I also didn't think that the pictures were all that sharp, for a 8MP camera. The shutter response is very slow and the face recognition doesn't work until the face fills a large part of the screen.

Overall this is a poor camera.



4 out of 5 stars Good Buy   September 30, 2008

I purchased the FE-310 and think it is a good buy for the money. I am still learning how to use all the controls.

1 out of 5 stars Do not buy this camera!   September 17, 2008
Karla Goddard (Charles City, IA)
I bought this camera with such high hopes only to be crushed. It takes horrible pictures! I am accustomed to using a Cannon at work so when I saw this 8MP camera on sale at the local Radio Shack I jumped on it. It is the perfect size for me to throw into my purse and I had already a bunch of XD memory cards. Bad choice. It will not focus for me in the zoom position although I have read the instruction booklet and tried all of the suggestions. About the only way it will take a good picture is if you are outside, good lighting and you are not using the zoom function. I bought a loser camera. Do not make the same mistake that I did. The Cannon I use at work focuses in all lighting situations, takes good video and night time pictures. I should have spent the extra money to get it. I am sooooo sorry now. I gave it a decent amount of trying and they won't take the camera back because I have had it over 14 days. I hope this helps someone else out. I am out my money!


5 out of 5 stars I am soooooo happy!   September 17, 2008

I could not be happier with this purchase.
Great pictures, no film processing, no hassles.
The merchant delivered ahead of estimated time
and gets two thumbs up!
