In addition to outstanding digital still images, the V3695 also has a movie mode allowing for the capture of movie clips. The V3695 offers imaging versatility. Users may select from four resolution and two quality settings. Whereas the V3695 is a 2.0 MP camera, it can interpolate images to 3 MP based upon processing inside the camera. Still image resolution may be set to either 1600 x 1200 (native resolution), 1280 x 960, 800 x 600, or interpolated to 2048 x 1536. Motion JPEG video clips are captured at a resolution of 320 x 240 in AVI format. The V3695 also features a web-cam mode for live video to your PC via USB. A notable feature for video-clip enthusiasts is the fact that V3695 video clips are not limited to a pre-determined duration (such as 30 or 60 seconds). Video clips captured with the V3695 may be recorded to the extent of available memory. The V3695 is an ideal camera for all your digital imaging needs ranging from email and web applications to images that are ready for display or print. Quality prints up to 8" x 10" are not a problem with the V3695. The V3695 comes with 16 MB internal memory built-in to the camera. Internal memory can be extended using Secure Digital (SD) memory cards. Other features include focus-free operation, automatic white balance (with the ability to specify lighting conditions), automatic exposure control (with manual compensation capability), an integral three-mode flash (including red-eye reduction), 10-second self-timer, and tripod-mounting socket. The V3695 comes with both USB and video output cables to download images for viewing and/or editing. The V3695 multi-lingual camera interface menus are available in six languages including English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Japanese. Video output can accommodate either NTSC or PAL systems, making the V3695 a truly International camera. Two AA alkaline batteries, or a single CR-V3 battery, supply power whereas built-in power saving logic automatically turns-off the camera to conserve battery power. Image editing software is included with the camera.User opinions

Cons: Using the zoom seem to distort the picture, Not many functions.
