Minolta Riva Zoom 115

Advantages: Easy to use controls, Compact size, nice silver finish, Good picture quality
Disadvantages: Small viewfinder

.... The camera has a powerful flash with good range and exposure when used. Also has red eye reduction with self timer. The camera has a silent rewind button when film has reached the end - useful if your in a quiet place. The zoom range is good from 38-115mm enough to bring distant objects close. The camera feels comfortable to hold and the controls that are needed the most like zooming in/out and shutter release button are close at hand. The only drawbacks i found with this camera is the small viewfinder. I personally found it very small for a 35mm zoom camera and i don't wear glasses!! You have to squint at times to take good photo. Also i wish the camera had date/time print facility that enables you to print the date/time on photo when picture was taken. But if you don't mind the small viewfinder i think this camera would be a good...

The Minolta Riva Zoom 130

Advantages: Superb Features, Good Design, Durable
Disadvantages: Can take a while for a photo to be taken

...-framing guide + 130mm zoom - Could have more features if we were to be greedy! - The camera can take a while for a photo to be taken but this is due to the camera focusing. All of the functions perform well and the landscape view is particularly useful although a tripod is recommended! PHOTO QUALITY: + All of the photos i have received i have been more than happy with the quality of the photo. OTHER: + Good instruction manual + Great looking camera + Mine came with a free case, film and two batteries! + Great value, i got mine for a bargain £80! I would highly recommend this camera to anyone!...

Classic Ipod 80G

Advantages: Looks good, easy to use, good for value.
Disadvantages: Freezes sometimes, repetitive use can hurt hand, screen a bit small.

...I found the Ipod 80G Classic looked good and I paid £157 for it and its been a good companion. I think its easy to use and it does exactly what I wanted. I play videos and TV shows from mine and I find that very useful as it is very good quality. I also use it to put photos on and its easy to show people and when I want to look at my memories. Also I know that my photos are saved on it and recently when my computer failed I found it really useful as I knew I had them on my Ipod. I like the games on it and the fact that you can buy games to put on it. I got my first Ipod before this one but I could not live without this one. It is like my little friend. I love listening to music and I think the sound is really good quality as is the display is also very good quality. However, you can only charge it up on the computer, but if your...

Ipod Classic 80gb

Advantages: Incredible memory and looks
Disadvantages: possibly too much memory?

...This is probably my most treasured possession. With the size of the memory, you can store more pictures, music and videos than you could ever possibly need. A pro and a con there... If your not going to fill up 80gb, i wouldn't recommend buying this ipod. At the moment i have nearly 6000 songs, and 9 (approx. 1 hour length) videos stored on my ipod classic, and still have 47.3 GB space free. If you can fill it, it's incredible value for money. If you can't, it seems a little pointless. It's very easy to use, you can make playlists on the go, the games are extraordinarily fun- not something i'd normally think about, but the ipod version of solitaire has kept me amused on many a train journey. The battery life is very good, as long as you don't continuously fiddle. The alarm is good... but has failed to wake me (a deep sleeper) up...

Zoom Zoom Zoom......

Advantages: Professionally laid out online surveys. Product testing.
Disadvantages: Some awful incentive gifts

...~~ UPDATED FEBRUARY 2006 ~~ I joined up with ZoomPanel through ipoints in December 2003. Quite frankly, I was most unimpressed with them at first. Despite promising the potential to earn rewards and cash through ZoomPoints, the first 10 or 11 surveys they offered me only qualified me for entry into a sweepstake or prize draw. I'm afraid that I very swiftly pull the plug on any survey company only offering entries into prize draws, as in over 2 years of survey work, I have yet to win anything from any survey company prize draw or raffle. I fail to see why I should spend my valuable time completing a survey for which I get little or no reward, when you can bet your bottom dollar the company hosting it is being handsomely rewarded. However, I am most glad that I gave them the benefit of the doubt, as ZoomPanel have proved to be a good...

Konika-Minolta Magicolor with magical printed colours

Advantages: Vivid colours, reliable, prints beautifully
Disadvantages: Photo printing quality is only 7/10 in my rating

...We bought our Konika Minolta Magicolor 2350 laser printer four years ago. We use it at home but I print quite frequently. We decided to buy this printer because it is specially designed for optimal performance in Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, and other environments as well. This was important for us, as I use Windows but my husband is an IT professional and uses several other operation systems on his computers and sometimes also he wants to print something. He worked for a company where there were a lot of printers of this type and he had really good opinion about them. This opinion hasn?t changed since then. Price of the printer and cartridges When we bought it, it was on offer, so it was ?only? £650. It was a serious discount because its full price is £900. There are four cartridges in it plus the drum cartridge, we had to change...

Come fly with me on Zoom.

Advantages: Low cost airline with Premium seating available.
Disadvantages: Only fly from a few airports in UK

...A few years ago we planned to go to Canada and cross the Rockies and then cruise to Alaska to celebrate our Ruby Wedding and retirement. But as my husband got voluntary redundancy last October we decided to bring the celebration holiday forward to this summer, why put off something that we can do now! We emailed a travel agent who specialised in Canadian travel and literally said what we wanted and what could they offer. The flight to Calgary and returning from Vancouver was with Zoom. I hadn't even heard of Zoom, my husband said it was a low cost flight. Knowing it would be a long flight I was somewhat concerned as my experiences with Easyjet and Ryanair haven't been very positive. So after doing some research online we asked the travel agent to upgrade our seats to Premium. Advantages of a Premium seat...

APPLE 80GB CLASSIC

Advantages: YOUR FAVOURITE MOVIES AND COMPLETE ALBUM COLLECTION IN YOUR POCKET
Disadvantages: SOUND LEVEL ON MOVIES NOT GREAT

...I bought my Ipod Classic around a month ago to basically be able to carry all my albums round with me at all times and have a couple of my favourite movies to hand if I am ever bored. I used to have an Ipod Nano and thought that 2 GB of memory would be plenty for what I needed but soon found that I couldn't fit no way near half of my albums on there and had to cherry pick my favourite songs due to there being not enough space available. Now having 80GB it's surprising how much you can actually fit on it. I currently have around 15 movies, a season of lost and over a 100 albums and am still well under 30GB. It's unbelievable. Unless you would like to put all your movie collection on to your Ipod then I can definitely assure you that an 80GB capacity would more than cover your requirements. The Ipod has a great new feature...

Zoom zoom

Advantages: ?
Disadvantages: good light camera

...Smile please by mumsymary - written on 08.09.06 - Rating: (5 of 5 possible stars) Advantages small camera takes great pictures Disadvantages ? Last year I was very sad I woke up to find my house had been burgled the car stolen and my digital camera boohoo, but my insurance did pay out most of what was lost and I was sent vouchers for Jessop. So I went to Jessop to buy a replacement camera the one I choose was the Casio Exilim EX-Z750 Digital Camera, it's a zoom camera. This camera can be bought for 150 on Amazon it's a refurbished one shop demo model. A brand new camera costs "£214. at at http://www.ukcamerastore.co.uk I think it cost me £245 when I bought it at Jessop in February, I can't find it in their on line store when I looked today. I had been using a Fuji digital before it was a large S L R size camera not...

Nikon D80 DSLR + 18-135mm Nikkor lens

Advantages: perfect grip, large prismatic viewfinder
Disadvantages: doesn't have internal memory

...the package, but Nikon offers first 10 chip cleaning services for free, which is quite a generous offer if you think about the service prices. Software supplied by Nikon is Nikon PictureProject, which allows you to copy, transfer, organize and keep your pictures as well as edit them, correct exposure and more. There's also a trial version of Capture NX, a professional edit and retouch software. I have got the D80 in a kit with AF-S Nikkor 18-135mm 3.5-5.6G ED DX lens which was a way better deal than buying it with standard kit 18-55mm lens, however, for macro and landscape shoots I'll need to expand my lens arsenal. This lens doesn't have a stabilizer (Nikon marks stabilizer as "VR"), it's a zoom lens enabling both manual and automatic focus, it doesn't have its own aperture. It's a CPU-controlled lens, which makes the autofocus quick...
