Viva la Vivicam!

Advantages: Cheap, easy to use, looks stylish
Disadvantages: The battery life

...I consider myself to an amateur photographer, only using a camera for special occasions and holidays. When I do take photos, I take hundreds. (On my trip to New York I got through a roll of film a day!) This can be quite costly, so last Christmas I decided to hop on board the digital camera revolution. I did my research and decided to go for a camera with at least 4m pixels, optical zoom, that was under £100. I had considered the likes of Kodak and Cannon, however the less well known brand Vivitar had the same spec at a much lower cost. At this time, the Vivitar Vivicam 3826 was the camera that fitted my specification perfectly, so I popped along to my local Index and bought the camera (£89.00 December 04). I have not seen the camera anywhere else, however, the Vivitar website has a list of all stockists. *** The Box...

Vivitar Vivicam 4345

Advantages: Good Camera
Disadvantages: None i can think of

...--------------------------- Vivitar Vivicam 4345 --------------------------- Yet another camera review. I have had so many cameras in my time but this particular camera is my girlfriends and what a camera it is. She purchased this camera about a year ago and has been using it since. The reason that I am writing a review about this camera is because I have used it more than her and I seem to know all of the ins and outs of the camera so I thought why not write a review and see what other people think about and maybe persuade some other people to buy the camera. Upon purchasing the camera I did lots of research for her as she would have gone and bought any old thing and would have regretted what she bought. Anyway after doing lots of research in the shops and also on the internet I came to the conclusion that it would be best if...

Vivitar VIviCam 5388

Advantages: Affordable, easy to use,
Disadvantages: Needs to have SD memory card for regular use

...I went on a mission to find a reasonable privced digital camera and found the Vivitar ViviCam 5388. On first glance I thought that it would not be very good, how wrong I was.

It has white balance presets for flourescent, cloudy , tungsten, light and daylight. It takes and stores your photos as JPEG images. It has an intergrated memory of 16MB, which although small can be increased by adding a SD memory card. It has built in flash and built in red eye reduction. Also it has a self timer mode.

Vivitar Vivicam X30

Advantages: Great value for money, amazing functionality, countless modes and features, 10.1MP!!
Disadvantages: Battery wears down fast if used very frequently

...After scouring the Argos catalogue for weeks, I finally settled on the Vivitar Vivicam X30, and I am so glad I did! I was dubious at first, as I can imagine some people would be, but I eventually bought it, and I wouldn?t be without it now! The description of it sounds quite amazing: 10.1MP, 3X Super Zoom, 2.5? LCD Monitor, Video Functionality, not to mention the countless modes and settings. All this for just under £200? Quite hard to believe, as for a slightly higher price, you could get a Sony Cybershot with only half the megapixel capabilities of the Vivitar. Ok, it?s not exactly an SLR, but for a digital camera, it?s the best I?ve seen so far! The part that shocked and attracted me most was the 10.1MP, as I had never seen a camera with such a high megapixel value for that price. I thought it could be one of those products that...

Vivitar

Advantages: Good for pictures
Disadvantages: The poor battery life

...This review is for the Vivitar Vivicam X325 digital camera. Setup --------- Setup is extremely easy for this camera; you first have to make sure you put in the batteries they include which are just cheap everyday value batteries inside the camera. You then have to make sure you have got the disc loaded onto the computer; the reason for this is because without the software loaded on it becomes really difficult to alter the pictures you take using this camera. Once you have done both of these simple steps you then can have a play around taking pictures in any way you feel like. Design ---------- This camera has a really nice overall design. The front of the camera is grey like the entire camera is and has this metallic look to it which has a nice clean shine which makes the camera look very interesting. You have the camera lens...
