Agfa DC 302

Advantages: Good Value
Disadvantages: No Support

...I bought this camera from Argos & while in use i found it to be a good & versatile little number, However when i recently upgraded my operating system i noticed that my DC7000 driver disc was damaged, i wasn't unduly allarmed until i found out that the drivers for this camera cannot be downloaded from anywhere & that there is no sign of Alba on the web let allone any support of any kind so if you should buy this camera or indeed any Alba item that needs drivers, and if the driver disc gets damaged the camera becomes useless & defunct so i would reccomend that you avoid Alba items & buy items from companies that have a good reputation for providing customer support etc such as Cannon or Agfa as good examples...

...The Agfa 1680. Lots of not so good reviews from magazines but i - a satisifed agfa customer - have to say i am extremely pleasd with this camera. the software is so easy a baby could use it and the connection was simple as well. Despite being not perticually good looking the agfa - and all the others i have had - is very sturdy. Is seems very strong. The view screen is very usefull. i hate having to look through those tiny view finders. you cant see detail where as the screen you can. Over all a very good buy.
