Have you ever heard of concord? I sure haven't. But it's not a problem, because this digital camera is amazing.
The nitty-gritty -------------------
This digicam has got a 4 megapixel resolution (which is extremely high), and a 6x digital zoom, which is high quality even when zoomed. It fits easily into your hand and is resonably light.
Features ------------
Well, this camera has 3 different modes. Camera mode, view pictures mode, and movie mode. The movie mode is a bit of a let down to this camera as it has no sound, but other than that it's very good quality. In the camera mode, there are many different functions to use.
For one, there's the different flash options- such as automatic, red-eye reduction, manual, and long exposure (only picks up the light reflected of an object). There are also different "location" options, for example- party mode, night landscape, snow, sunny etc etc.
You can also take different sized pictures and different resolutions. The standard size of a picture is 2272 x 1704, and if you're "in the know" with pixel sizings, you'll know that's very very big.
Of course, you can also do things such as continuous shot (takes lots of pictures) or self timer. Also, if you flick a little switch on the front, you can go into macro mode, which is used for pictures of things close up, such as a flower etc etc.
The cons -------------
Of course, you can't get pros without cons- but this camera has few. For one, the battery life isn't amazingly long and you will find yourself recharging quite often. Second, there's no sound on movies (as mentioned before). Third, the little joystick thingy is very hard to use, and to delete a picture can take you a very long time, and quite a lot of effort.
The price -------------
Ok, here's the best bit. The price. You see, i bought this camera for £110 which frankly for this, is amazing. Usually digicams with 4 megapixels will be priced in the 200s/300s, but i guess because of the non-well known brand, it costs much less.
Recommendations ---------------------------
"Wow! This is really cool.. *click* ooh! it's great! i want one!" - My friend nick (he honestly said that)
Conclusion ----------------
This camera is very good, has high quality images, the macro mode is especially good and so's the long exposure. I would put a link to some pictures i've taken to show you the kind of thing it can do but it's not allowed.. :'(
Anywho, i really do recommend this camera- and if you're going to buy a digital camera at any point soon, make it this one!
