"Perfect for the price (on sale for 40 bucks)"
Pros: Has plenty of scene settings: Landscape, fireworks, sports, etc
Takes good quality pictures, videos, voice recording (yes it works as an audio recorder)
The manual mode (P for Program) lets you adjust many settings including the ISO (50 up to 400)Cons: Nothing really
Summary: If you expect this product to work as a professional camera, then its not for you. It is a point-and-shoot camera with plenty of features. It has plenty of settings and on-the-run editing such as (picture frames, backgrounds, etc)
Although the specification state different exposure timing (shutter speed), a user can't manually set the exposure manually, neither the aperture opening. Only the ISO can be controlled manually.
Again this camera serves its purpose and goes beyond the expectation from a point-and-shoot camera.
Finally, about the batteries: this camera doesn?t consume batteries as some has mentioned above. I plugged in two AA half charged Energizers batteries and they lasted for over 10 min video and 25 pictures. If you plug in cheap batteries, then it may not even start up (as well as other cams will do.) The camera will let you select the type of batteries used (NiMH or Alkaline)
Comparing to my Kodak CX camera, the Polaroid matches up the specifications with one exception (the shutter speed). But the Kodak CX didn?t have manual ISO settings.
Kodak cost $175, this one cost $125
