Viva Vivitar

Advantages: Superb pics and price.
Disadvantages: Haven't found any

...My old digital camera had served its purpose well, but being only a 3 Mega pixel was now somewhat out dated. So I was on the lookout for a cheap good camera. I had planned on getting at least 5 mega pixels because I do feel that is this techno age a 5 Mega pixel is the least you need. For those uneducated in the terminology let me simplify it for you. Basically the higher the mega pixel value of the camera the better quality of picture you will get. A 3 mega pixel will produce 3 million dots to get the picture whilst a 5 mega pixels will produce........................yep you got it 5 million dots in the same area therefore there will be far more detail. I'm reasonably techno minded but no over so so I did require a camera which would be simplicity in itself to operate, and low and behold I found it. The Vivitar 5385 met all...

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 - Small Package Producing Good Quality

Advantages: small, fits neatly into the pocket, great quality for the price
Disadvantages: no conventional view-finder

...I had nearly £40 worth of Amazon vouchers built up from my on-line activities with various Internet affiliate programs I belong to. And when I had one of their promotion e-mails I thought it was about time I used some of them up. I was particularly attracted to the Vivitar 6324 digital camera. I noticed it was 6MP, 3 times optical zoom, and had a 2.4” LCD viewing screen. What’s more it only measured some 9.5cm X 6.5cm and would fit neatly in my pocket without me even knowing it was there. Total cost delivered was £55.88 including tax and delivery - I had opted to pay a delivery charge of £5.01 and it was with me 2 days later. Thinking it was going to be “cheap and nasty”, I was pleasantly surprised at its quality. Fitting nicely in the palm, it feels very light, but weighty enough to feel like a quality piece of kit. It came...

Disgo camcorder

Advantages: Easy to use and price
Disadvantages: none

...This Disgo camcorder is a great little gadget. I saw this camcorder on the TV program 'Something for the Weekend' on BBC1. They described it a fun, cheap and easy to use camcorder. I have since brought one for myself. I have to say it's defiantly fun, cheap and easy to use! The camcorder has 60 minutes of recording time, runs on two AA batteries and has its own USB connecter integrated, this connects to any laptop or PC via the USB socket. The camcorder is approximately 15 centimetres tall and 4centimeters wide. Simple buttons and on screen prompts make it simple to use even for technophobes. There is no need to download software as it comes in built to the camcorder. The software itself is extremely straight forward to use. It is a very attractive, stylish product and has a screen that flips out so you can see yourself should...

Review of Disgo Video Plus SD Camcorder

Value from Vivitar

Advantages: Compact, handy and sharp images
Disadvantages: ONly 3 mp, no optical zoom, no lithium batteries

...Mother's day saw a gift for Mother - i.e. my darling wife - that was a little bit more than a bunch of flowers. Being away from her for the day had made the conscience tender enough to suggest something a bit extra. Then there had been her gradual realisation that paying for reels of standard film to be developed after holidays, was mighty expensive. Finally, there had been those little experiments with my Fuji while on safari recently, that prompted the desire to enter the digital revolution.! This Vivitar is a good starter off in that direction. Price-wise these are available on the high street for around £60. They come complete with 2 AA batteries, 14mb of inbuilt memory, a carrying case, the cables and software to download to TV or PC, and a pretty good manual. It has an oddity for a digital camera in that the focus is...

Review of Vivitar ViviCam 3750

I saved 500 pounds on a camcorder......

Advantages: cheap prices, upto 60% savings against High Street prices, fast website, EXCELLENT & helpful customer services
Disadvantages: as of 2004 the site doesn't exist! (see update)

...If you are looking to buy the latest camcorders at the very best prices chances are you will find some of the most competitive prices at go2camcorder. I first came across the site go2camcorder.co.uk whilst looking to buy a digital camcorder last month. After searching all other online Electronics sites such as; Comet, Amazon, Empire Direct etc and even unbeatable.co.uk; which despite having the name ‘unbeatable’ are infact easily beatable on price; Go2camcorder came out best on price. Those of you who use product/price search engines such as pricerunner will notice how often go2camcorder consistently comes out as the lowest price for the same electronics product. go2camcorder.co.uk Go2camcorder is one of the largest wholesalers of electronic products in Europe. It is also owned by one biggest pure Internet electronics retailers...

Review of Vivitar ViviCam 5199

Vivitar camera..a dark horse in the making!

Advantages: Cheap, simple to use, still good quality
Disadvantages: Lack of design

...Usually i would buy a more expensive brand of higher quality such as a kodak or fujitsu or sony however, i have experience with vivitar cameras before and i knew that they were good for their money. So i decided to buy a 5 megapixel camera and didnt expect too much from them. However, these expectations were soon quashed as i was amazed at how good the camera actually was for the price. I paid £45 including P+P and from this price, the picture quality was fantastic, zoom was very good, ease of use was simple and user friendly,using the software which accompanied the camera was also simple to use and transfer files. If your looking for a good camera for a low price then this is the camera for you. It is great for quick snaps or even quality photography....
