Olympus FE-3010 12MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom and 2.7 Inch LCD (Black)
The main reason I'm writing this review is to share some information about its video capabilities:
The camera can record audio but does not have a speaker, so in-camera playback will not have audio.
This camera does not include an XD memory card, and to store anything beyond the pathetic internal memory you will need to purchase one. XD cards can be type M, M+, or H. Type M has an access time too slow to let the highest-quality video write to the card, so you can only record 10 seconds of video in this case. I contacted Olympus and they confirmed that the M+ and H type cards circumvent this problem, allowing you to fill the entire XD card with movie data if you wish to.This camera is a great buy! Everything you need comes in the package, except you'll have to buy an additional memory card (about $16 for 2GB). It works great and takes good pictures at night, in action, or for everyday use. It's small to fit in your pocket and has a new, sleek look. The settings are advanced and allow for every type of shooting. As a college student, this is a perfect camera. I have had no problems with it thus far.

Good camera, very easy to use, very large screen. Only one flaw: the battery life is rather short and needs to be recharged quite often.I don't want to labor the points made by previous reviewers, but, the battery life is poor. The lack of sound on video is also an irritation. As someone else said, the picture quality isn't really that good; one shouldn't need to have the camera on the highest resolution possible to get just passable picture quality.Positives: Lightweight; compact; more than reasonable software bundle and easy to use. Good zoom and image stabilization. Easy to navigate menu.
Negatives: Poor picture quality; non-standard memory card (have to mess with an adapter). Preferred shooting mode does not seem to save; every time you power on, you are back to the default. No sound on video. Poor battery life (it should not die from a full charge after shooting just 6 minutes of video).
I persevered with this camera for a couple of months. The bottom line for me was that the picture quality was much poorer than cameras very much older and far less expensive. This is probably the first and last Olympus camera that I will ever own.
I have since bought a Sony DSC-T90 and really, I could not be happier. I just wished that I hadn't wasted money on the Olympus FE-3010.

Honestly my iPhone takes better pictures. I can't really recommend this to anyone, but it is pretty simple to use. I figured out every option in about 20 minutes, so it seems intuitive. However I would really get something else, I only have this because it was free.Thursday, January 30, 2014
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35 12.1MP Digital Camera with 18x POWER Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7
My first impressions were ones of pleasant shock. The camera seemed smaller than in the pictures and if it seemed smaller, it seemed doubly more so in terms of weight. Compared to my SLR this thing is an absolute lightweight but very well built and certainly heavier than the smaller 'in your pocket' point and shoots. A great balance...although I wouldn't want to drop it. Some strategically placed silicone on the housing would make this a bit more rugged without much if any impact on cost. Powerup is about as fast as you can bring the camera up to your face amongst the best of the point and shoots. Controls are easy to use and I like the mini joystick for making on the fly adjustments in manual and scene modes. The menus are fairly well laid out although some items I had to resort to the manual to find their location for the first time.
The iA or Intelligent Auto function gave consistently above par picture quality, although I was always able to tweak it better myself (this could have been as much preference as anything). The AVCHD and HD movies worked absolutely flawless with my Transcend 16 GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Memory Card TS16GSDHC6E [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging]. (NOTE:Make sure you lowlevel format these SDHC cards a COUPLE of times BEFORE first use). I do wish that you could use the normal shutter release instead of the dedicated movie button on the back face when in movie mode. I kept forgetting and tried to stop the movies using the shutter button instead of the record button. Minor nuisance, but will be overcome as I get my brain wrapped around the change in button locations.
The battery worked well past 300 stills and about 35 clips, so I am very pleased with it with the LCD display being used for most of the shots. I purchase another spare battery;Lenmar DLP006 Lithium-ion Digital Camera/Camcorder Battery Equivelent to the Panasonic CGR-S006A Battery, also available here at Amazon, and it appears to be working about as well as the original Panasonic (a great buy). The EVF or Electronic View Finder was very handy, although most of the overlaid information is very hard to distinguish in the small EVF. I CAN'T BELIEVE PANASONIC DIDN'T INCLUDE A RUBBER BOOT FOR THE EVF! Please someone, anyone, make it as an accessory.
The EZ or Extra Zoom function is quite handy. Using this feature, you can shoot at lower resolutions and get more effective zooming power out of the camera...over 30x and it works very well. The LCD screen is clear and crisp, but its performance in high ambient light is about average. Thank goodness for the electronic view finder mentioned above.
Image stabilization is the absolute best amongst my camera collection and is especially noticeable in low light and full zoom. I was pleasantly surprised how well I could take indoor pictures at night with a simple tweak of the exposure. Far better than any of my other point and shoots, although nowhere near my SLR.
The standard 3picture burst mode was fairly standard and unimpressive, but the 10pics per second for speed priority and 6 pics per second in image priority burst mode worked well for catching difficult shots like geese landing on the water and children jumping out of swings, but I still wish the resolution and picture quality was better in these modes. Still, for a point and shoot, it's ability to catch the fast action is at the top of it's class.
The lens cap interferes with zoom, but the camera will kindly remind you that you have left it on with a 17,000 volt discharge...just kidding...it will tell you on the LCD screen.
UPDATE: A new megazoom runoff was conducted by Digital Photography Review in June of '07 and can be seen here: or you can cut to the results here:
To say the FZ35 stacked up well would be an understatement, but as they point out in the above review, you will likely not be disappointed with any of the other fine cameras in the pack. The review, however, will help you to pick one that works best for your needs and preferences. (I'm still super happy and winning contests with my amateur photos).
LIKES: Ease of use, picture quality, zoom and extra zoom, HD movie, lightweight, stop action. BEST Point and Shoot I've ever owned ! ! !
DISLIKES: (all minor) No eyepiece boot for EVF, lens cap interferes with zoom, tripod mount interferes with battery/memory door when in use. Only 10 sec. max on the built in timer.I previously purchased the Canon SX20is and used 2 weeks. I found the images just a bit too soft for my taste. Too bad because all other facets of the camera was great. But, to me image quality is everything. If it can't produce a crisp image, I don't want it. Perhaps I was spoiled by the excellent SX10is I was switching from.
Desperate for an inexpensive Hi Def video camera for a client project, I decided to give the dual Panasonic FZ35 a try. I had used a Panasonic LX2 for several years and liked it, so I figured why not even though Panasonic is not a manufacturer one would normally think of first for a high quality still camera.
So far, I have been pleasantly surprised!
What I like about the FZ35:
1. The super sharp Leica lens! Having 18x zoom in such a small package.(Sharper than SX20is)
2. Metal tripod mount
3. VERY Reasonable price for all the features included. Seems a bargain to me.
4. The fact you also get very nice HD video in one package is a bonus.
5. Excellent macro mode. If you like macrophotography you'll like this camera.
6. Relatively simple controls/interface once familiar. (You do have to read the manual)
7. Has 46mm filter threads for add ons.
8. Full time battery indicator.
9. Optional wide angle and telephoto lenses are available if desired.
10 Better than most image stabilization system.
11. Many focus & exposure options.
What I'm not so crazy about:
1. Buttons & switches are quite small and seem rather delicate.
2. Manual as PDF (what a pain). I'll take mine paper, thank you.
You might as well print it out right away. You're gonna need it!
3. Smallish Electronic ViewFinder (Not just this one either. They all leave me wanting.)
4. Construction and light weight give a slight feeling of cheapness.
5. Proprietary Panasonic battery.
6. Location of media card in battery compartment.
Is it perfect? Nope. Are any of them? Even the $5,000 ones?
What do I miss most when switching from my NIKON? That bright, super clear viewfinder.
Will it clip highlights? Sure, if you don't set it up right. They all do. High dynamic range is not usually a feature on most consumer cameras.
Can it take a sharp picture? You Bet! In macro especially, you'll love the clarity of the image.
Newbies purchasing this ... make no mistake, this is a complex little piece of gear. Sure, you can use it on intelligent AUTO if you want, but what a waste. You have to LEARN this camera to get the most out of it. And don't expect to learn it in a day or even a week. Used properly it will yield beautiful, sharp images. Buy it and shoot, shoot, shoot and you'll get the hang of it. Why not? The "film" is cheap!
By the way, purchase a Class 6 SD card right away. That way if you want to play with the HD movie function you can. Some cheap SD cards can't write fast enough for HD video use. If you have a hi def TV you'll love it.
Beware though, HD video files get HUGE fast! Uploads to YouTube (or anywhere else) can take quite awhile. A 1 minute, 36 sec. clip equals 491 MB and over 4 hrs to upload via DSL.
If you get serious about HD video, or enjoy doing critical focus photography, PLEASE, buy a decent tripod and USE it. Camera movement is the main enemy of sharpness. At the low ISO settings required to get the most out of these small sensors, keeping the camera still is extremely important. Don't expect stabilization systems to entirely solve "jitter" problems at very low shutter speeds!
High end users take note: In the Custom controls there is an separate adjustment for contrast, saturation, noise reduction and sharpness. YEA ! Somebody is listening.
Nov. 5, 2009. I've made nearly 1000 shots with this camera and I'm impressed and still very happy with it.
October 2010, I've made thousands of images and still am impressed by its sharpness. The price has dropped to under $300 now and I consider this an excellent buy. The sharpness of this camera is the standard to which my next one will be held. Image quality is hard to beat for the money.This is the first of the Panasonic Lumix superzooms that I've had an opportunity to use extensively. I regularly use both small point and shoot digital cameras (Canon SD550 and a waterproofed Canon S100) and digital SLRs (Canon 5D and Rebel XTi), but this is definitely a different sort of beast. It's nearly the size and weight of a DSLR with a lens that is noticeably long in use. It's sold as straddling the line between the two categories and it initially seems that way. But the more that I think about it, the more I think this camera really fills a different niche. If you're a serious photographer, a DSLR is really the way to go. You get full control over the images, a large sensor size, a selection of lenses, and filter options. If you're that person, this is hardly a replacement, and for the compact point and shooter this is a massive camera. Where this camera wins out is for a very simple kit covering wide angle (27mm equivalent for a 35mm camera) and the stunning 18x zoom. You'll be able to do most everything passably with this camera and with no additional lenses. Maybe this is the camera to put in the glovebox of your car? It'll always be there, and you can get most any shot with it. No preparation needed. Okay, enough thinking about who wants the camera, how does it work?
Well, it works pretty darned well. The image stabilizer seems to work extremely well, especially at moderate zoom (say 50-150mm equivalent), the battery lasted about 300 shots with some flash use in there, and image quality (subjective, not measured scientifically) was quite good. The camera was a bit slow to react at times though and the face detection works only occasionally. Still, that leaves this a solid camera for what I think is a quite good price. If you're not going to take advantage of the DSLR capabilities, this is a good functional camera for you. Or an excellent second camera for simplicity.
Pros: 18x zoom with a genuine wide angle, solid construction, good battery life, image stabilization that works, one size might well fit many
Cons: big for a point and shoot, slow acting at times, gimmicky features are, well, gimmicks(Copy of a review posted on the UK site this is the FZ38 over there)
This is an initial review after one day of ownership, which I'll revise. My previous experience of digital cameras is limited to a Nikon Coolpix compact, now about 7 years old, and this camera is intended to replace the Nikon film SLR and three lenses which I've lugged around on holidays for 10-15 years. So some things that are amazing me will be just what you expect if you're used to similar cameras.
From that standpoint, the first thing to amaze me is the weight. Complete with battery, SDHC card, lens cap, lens hood and shoulder strap, it's 1lb 1oz on the kitchen scales. And there's very little to add in the accessory line a clear and polarising filter (unlike some 'bridge' cameras, this one has a filter screw thread), spare battery, blower brush and mini-tripod from old stock and a new bag, and we're done. This probably means the full kit weighing less than the SLR with mid-range zoom.
One reason for persevering with the SLR was being able to use an 18-35 mm lens for wide-angle shots. As the wide end of this camera is only equivalent to 27mm, I was pleased to see the panorama assist facility, and will be testing out the "stitching" software supplied with it to see whether I can still get a picture of a cathedral from the square in front of it. (An initial experiment suggests that given a level tripod, some good results should be available). At the narrow end, you don't get the same power as the 24x or 26x alternatives, but with my previous range of 18-300mm, I used the 300 end less often than the 18, so probably not a big issue unless you're snapping birds or cricketers. (You can have 32x if you reduce image size to 3Gb, but a very quick comparison suggests that unless stuck for memory space you may as well use 18x/12Mb and crop the picture later.)
The next big surprise was the quality of the results from "Intelligent Auto" mode. As soon as the battery was charged, I went outside and snapped away without worrying about where the sun was, or anything else I'd have pondered with the SLR. Results were very good, so you can do some very lazy photography, and if one or all users of the camera have never cared about shutter speeds and exposure compensation, it barely matters Intelligent Auto and some other top-wheel choices like the scene mode will do most of the work.
I haven't yet tried the movie-making side, though that's not of great interest to me.
Various minor points:
The supplied Photofun Studio 4 software says that it doesn't support 64-bit Windows Vista, but does install and seems to work OK.
You do NOT get a printed copy of the full manual, just a short 'Getting started' guide. The full manual in PDF is supplied on CD and you can find it and read it on the Panasonic website before buying, but I would have liked to have to whole thing spare time on holidays is an ideal time for reading it. As and when we have a netbook PC for keeping and editing pictures, this issue will disappear!
The lens hood is easy enough to fit but its guide mark is unhelpfully placed on the bottom of the camera and common-sense fitting by eye without inverting the camera works just as well. The lens cap fits on the screw-in ring to which you attach the hood, though I've not yet checked whether you can stick this whole lot in front of a lens-protecting filter without vignetting or other trouble.
The square "+/-" symbol on the display may cause mild panic if you're used to an old SLR's top-panel display, where the symbol itself indicates under/overexposure. On the FZ38, it doesn't unless there is a number next to it. The display options are worth exploring the guidelines option is a boon for lining up, and when displaying pictures, you can optionally show a lot of information like shutter speed and aperture. Another user interface issue is that some selections are made without the equivalent of an "OK" button and some with, so at first you may find yourself pressing the "Menu/Set" button too often, despite the camera's efforts to guide you.
One problem with the user interface is more significant some lists of option choices use graphical symbols whose meaning may not be obvious. In some cases (like the ones shown when you select portrait with the mode wheel) these have explanatory captions (my favourite is "Smooth skin shoot potrait's skin more smoothly" misspelled and a bit repetitious, but they tried). In others, there's no help try Setup LCD mode, where your choices are "Off", "A*" and "*" with no help about what LCD mode is or what these settings mean. You have to go to the full manual in PDF to find out. Depending on your experience, other symbols may be obvious, and explanation might be irritating, so there's probably scope for some kind of "expert/beginner" setting which determines how much is explained. This is the one that stops me upping the rating to five stars.
The electronic viewfinder works well as an alternative to the screen, once adjusted with the diopter wheel. The display is exactly the same you can even look at your stored pics with the viewfinder.
The battery is good for 470 shots based on the CIPA standard, but the manual warns you that this is based on a particular usage pattern "e.g. when recording once every 2 minutes, the number decreases to about 117. So a spare battery is probably worth buying. The charger is good for voltages 110-240, so for foreign trips you only need the kind of adaptor that makes the plug fit.I've had the FZ35 for about 3 weeks now. I have found nothing of substance to gripe about yet. The camera has a lot of features and since I have a day job it will take a while to really learn how to get the most from this camera, but the effort is worth it. Getting started is easy with the simple booklet that comes in the box; yes, it would be nice to have the entire manual in print but I downloaded to my laptop and read a little more each week as I fiddle with the camera, so slowly but surely I'm getting the big picture, so to speak, of how to operate the fz35.
I finally got around to using the supplied video cables tonight and learned I could hook the camera up to the hdtv. This past Sunday morning was sunny and inviting so I went into the yard and took pictures of flowers and assorted closeups mostly, in the fish pond, butterflies, even a hummingbird, using the different settings and priorities, the flash, and so forth. Tonight I watched a slide show of all the pictures on my hdtv, complete with music (it's programmed into the camera in several different styles). The picture quality on the tv was incredibly good; several photos were extreme closeups of a butterfly on the ground and the particles of dirt below the butterfy's wings were clearly visible on my 37" screen.
Picture quality and features aside, this camera is easy to use for the beginner who can gradually improve their skills by using the shutter speed/aperture priorities or manual mode, or automatic, or choose one of the many scene modes depending upon the situation. The camera boots up quickly and the delay between shots is acceptable, if not blazingly fast. (There is a setting for taking several shots in quick sequence, if needed.) The flash is strong and recycles fairly quickly. the camera won't fit in your pocket unless you're Captain Kangaroo, but with its accessories it'll fit into a small camera bag. I purchased the wide angle and exta zoom lenses because they came on sale, but really, you don't need them given the range of the supplied Leica lens. The controls are fairly easy to use and intuitive; I really like the design of one convenient button to toggle directly back and forth between the lens finder and the lcd screen on the back of the camera; all digital cameras don't feature that.
Sure, not much is perfect in life, but this camera is close enough for me.

Eleqtronics4U Premier HDMI Cable - 2 Meter (6.6 Feet), 24k Gold contacts, V1.3, Ferrite Cores: Blu-
I have never used one until this one and when it came, it was easy to figure out what to do. Plug it in and play.
I use it to connect my laptop to my HDtv and watch movies/ listen to Pandora/ use the computer from the comfort of my sofa!
If you are older, this is a great way to use a laptop without having the tiny screen issue.I have purchased many HDMI cables over the years, and often succumb to the $70-100 price tags of the Monster Cables available at Best Buy and other retail stores. I recently purchased an Apple Tv, a Playstation 3 and got a new HD DVR cable box to hook up to my 60" Pioneer Elite Plasma TV. Expressing my disinterest in wanting to spend another $300 in video cables, I was referred to Eleqtronics4U by a friend. I reviewed Eleqtronics4U's product description and they seemed to have all of the same features as a monster cable, but I was still skeptical about the price. I went ahead and ordered three cables anyway, and hooked up my components. When I fired up my Blu Ray player the Picture was amazing, and I had the same experience with all of my components!!!!! Compared to a Monster cable, I could not tell any difference whatsoever. I have since spread the word to all of my friends who are investing in Home theater equipment. I will never pay outrageous store prices for HDMI cables again. I would highly recommend these cables, they are identical in performance to a monster cable but they are the best deal you'll find!!I am always socked at the price of HDMI cables in the stores. I have bought several different "price points" over the years and still cannot see or hear a difference. This cable connects my Roku to a large HD TV with no issues at all !

Fujifilm FinePix HS30XR 16 MP Digital Camera Accessory Saver 16GB Bundle !!! (Black)
When the box arrived, I opened it immediately since a corner of the box was bent inward, I was worried! I found the 16GB memory card was missing from the boxed bundle pack of accessories that I had purchased. So I called the supplier (Big Value, Inc.) and they shipped a replacement without any trouble. I also let them know that the box that was delivered was smashed on one corner and that they needed to let the delivery department know that more protective stuffing needed to be put in their boxes before delivery. Then I went through everything in the bundle pack.
1) This FujiFilm Finepix HS30EXR 16MP digital (bridge) camera with extended zoom is of very high quality. I have spent some time playing with it and becoming acquainted with some of the basic features, as I am not familiar with advanced digital features yet. I found thru reading the digital manual from the supplied CD that this camera is very sensitive to lower and higher temperatures. So if you are thinking of purchasing this camera, make certain you read the manual on the CD. It is very helpful so that you don't harm this quality camera. I still have much to learn about this very nice camera but I am VERY PLEASED with this digital camera purchase. I think YOU will, also.
2) The purchased 16 GB Memory Card and Bundle Pack:
A: The 16GB SDHC Memory Card: Once the supplier sent me a new card, after the original one was not found in the delivered box, I tested it and found it to be of sufficient quality. It gets FIVE STARS!
B: The Full Size Photo and Video Tripod: IS OF VERY CHEAP PLASTIC AND NOT GOOD QUALITYI give it a sub-standard ONE STAR!--This Tripod shouldn't even be in the bundle pack. Or the supplier should offer one made of composite materials or metal. SUB-STANDARD-ONE STAR!
C: The 3-pack 58mm Multi Coated Filter Kit (UV, Florescent, Polarizer): These are of High Quality with a felt-lined case. I am very impressed with them. They alone get Five Stars!
D: The USB SDHC Memory Card Reader: I haven't had to use it yet but it is an added feature for someone who might need it. It appears to be of good quality. Since it hasn't been tested yet, I give it FOUR STARS for appearance alone.
E: The Padded Carrying Case w/Strap: This case with strap just barely fits the FujiFilm Finepix HS30EXR 16MP camera and not much else. This case is TINY for a camera case. A larger case should have been supplied. But this little case and strap are of GOOD QUALITY and get FOUR STARS. It would get FIVE stars had it been larger.
F: The Memory Card Wallet: Is small but sufficient. It gets FOUR STARS.
G: The Pack of LCD Screen Protectors : Are of GOOD QUALITY and more than enough to cover not just my FujiFilm Finepix 16 MP HS30EXR digital (bridge) camera but also other electronics I own! They get FIVE STARS from me. They are necessary.
H: The Lens/LCD Cleaning Kit: Is of GOOD QUALITY and necessary. It gets FIVE STARS.
I: The Mini Table Top Tripod: Is of GOOD QUALITY and gets FIVE STARS.I really like this bridge camera and have had a lot of fun with it since I bought it. Wasn't all that thrilled with the extras it came with, but I kind of knew what to expect so the price made up for that stuff. This is just my personal preference since I am partial to this brand. It has some quirks that Fuji products are known to have, but overall the photos are pretty darn good right off the camera. Like anything else, it takes time to learn the equipment. If you are willing to do that and give it a chance, I think you will be happy with your choice.

Coby 2-Inch TFT LCD SNAPP HD Camcorder/Camera CAM5000 (Black)
If you are looking for an ultra cheap'o mini cam just to post video to YouTube and your Facebook account then these faults might not be so concerning. If you are in it for the long haul and would like the best possible picture quality out of a camera in this form factor, you might want to consider the other options out there. I will be returning my recent purchase.I bought this camera, Christmas 2009. It is now March 2010 and the camera is fully dead.
I noticed a problem about two weeks into using the product. It developed a "tick" during recording....tick...tick....tick....tick....like a clock....I was disappointed to hear it on playback as well...I wrote to the tech support crew from the Coby website. I never received a response.
Sometime Mid-February, the camera developed a bug where, when I turned it on, it would say "HDMI" and the screen would black out, making the camera completely unusable. Again, I contacted support asking for help and never heard from them. At this time, I took the camera back to Fry's where I bought it but they wouldn't return/exchange it because it had been 6 weeks. I got it to work a few times after that by connecting it to an HDMI TV to get to the menu's, but that really didn't help. The problem persists.
How disappointing. Another inexpensive technology that only lives up to its promise for a limited time then dies. Combined with *zero* support from the parent company, this product is a no-buy.
Think about how many resources get consumed manufacturing products like this only to have them junked into landfills less than 6 months later. We need to stop purchasing cheap technologies or Earth will pay the price...Lesson learned!!

Good for casual use. Noise when you click for zooming. No remote. Only 4x zooming.Just a backup camcorder. If you're shooting e.g. graduation or weddings, for a little more money, use a good camcorder. If just shooting short but good quality videos, consider investing in high-end cellphones/pda. If you carry your psp or nintendo ds with you, cameras for these gamers might be enough for short low-quality videos.

I bought this about a month ago and I just opened the box to recharge the unit via its USB port.Has anyone had the same thing happen to them with this device?:
It takes FOREVER to recharge its battery.
From what I gather at the Coby website it should take a least 12 hours of recharge to finally get the device to work on a full charge.
I would rather not keep my computer running for 12 hours as the battery gets its "juice"...and there is NO way of recharging with an AC recharger.
I like the look of the device and it would be perfect for what I would use it for, but this recharging the battery is a major chore (speaking for myself!).
It's been two days on recharge through computer and the still the small red light blinks...meaning it's not done yet.
I may just return it.
Wotta pity!
Peace
