Good camer for good lighting
By paulVerified Reviewer from Albany, CA on 6/30/2008
Pros:
Bright LCD, Comfortable Controls, Easy to Keep Clean, Strong Construction
Cons:
Poor Operation in Low Light
Best Uses:
Art, Fun, Travel
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

In general a good camera, except for low-light situations (about EV2 at ASA 400) - then it isn't the camera for you - your lowest f-stop/shutter speed combo is f2.8 @ 1/10 sec. For an ASA equivalent of 100, too!

Minox should either: increase the lowest shutter or make the "speed" rating of the sensor higher (I'd like ASA 400, please!)

Nice little DC
By CJVerified Reviewer from Los Angeles on 6/21/2007
Describe Yourself:
Professional
Pros:
Accurate Colors, Great Resolution, Simple Controls
Cons:
Not Good In Low Light
Best Uses:
Everyday, Outdoors, Portraits, Travel
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This extremely compact camera is pretty neat, particularly once photos are downloaded to computer. Camera LCD is not so good at displaying color (particularly reds) when shooting, but colors (including reds) really show up after downloading to computer (which is very easy to do), and pics are reasonably sharp displaying fully on a 15" monitor. Sure, it's limited in low light, but making use of EV scaling helps a lot in various light conditions. It can be difficult to focus, as LCD is so small. It's great for close-ups though. Insert of a 4GB card is helpful, allowing 3,000 high-quality photos. This camera is not up to Minox film-camera standards, but then no digital camera is that good.

Worst pictures ever
By nrmorrison from NYC on 6/8/2007
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Pros:
looks cute
Cons:
Low-Quality Pictures, Not Enough Features, Not Good In Low Light
Best Uses:
none
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Everyone likes the way it looks immediatly. However it produces the worst pictures of any digital camera I have ever used. Much worse than a my first Olympus 1.3 megapixel point and shoot. A big waste of money.
