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...

Review of Vivitar ViviCam X325

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...

8mm DVD Review

Advantages: Characters, Tension.
Disadvantages: Not for everyone.

...Tense stuff. Just don't show it to the kids."The things I do--I do them because I like them. Because I want to.'' -- 'Machine' (Chris Bauer) 8mm exhibits bad taste and may be shocking to most people, but to me it felt like a movie with serious intent, especially seen as though it tracks the descent of Tom Welles (Nicolas Cage), as the ordinary guy, into the nasty, immoral world of underground pornography. The character, understandably, is tormented, mentally, as he simply cannot accept why all the evil surrounding him exists. Notoriously panned by critics upon its release, this was by no means a milestone in the career of Cage, even though I believe it to contain ones of his most powerful performances. He plays a man dedicated, slightly obsessed, and deeply sickened by the events that unfold throughout his investigation into...

Vivitar 5199

Advantages: light, high res for the price
Disadvantages: uses AAA baterries instead of a rechargeable Lithium ion one

...This is an easy to use 5 mega pixel digital camera . It has a 4x digital zoom and a large (2.5") monitor. Although it does not have an optical veiw finder. It has six white balance settings (Auto, sunny, cloudy, tungdten bulb and two fluorescent settings) self timer (10, 15, 20 sec option) The camera can be connected to you PC or laptop via a USB (included) and can also be connected to your TV via the 'video in' soccets. The focal range of the camera is 8.25 mm with an aperture of 3.0 The draw backs are that it requires two AAA size batteries and not one of the rechargeable lithium batteries many digital cameras have, also there is no cover for the lens unlike other modles where the lens goes into the camera body when switched off hence it is more vounerable to being scratched. The flash has a default setting of 'off' so you will need...

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...

M&M'S FOR ME.

Advantages: Delicious and filling
Disadvantages: Nut allergy sufferers steer clear.

...---PEANUT M&M's--- Peanut M&M's are delicious. There is just something about the scrumptious crispy coatings and peanut centre that really go well together. Made by Mars incorporated, they have been in production since 1990. ---THE PRODUCT--- The M&M's come to us presented in a thick bright yellow plastic package. To the front of the packaging there is a selection of the candies all piled up. They show the different colourings of the M&M's. In large brown bubble writing you have the product name of M&M's in large brown letters held up by two of the M&M characters. The packet is bright, cheerful and eye catching, appealing to young and old. - ---THE M&M CHARACTERS--- The actual candies are colourful and fun. They have been given characters pertaining to colour. Starting with red; He is the leader of the pack - Yellow...

8mm Tapes are so last year!

Advantages: Good quality tapes that will work and last
Disadvantages: Very dated with better SD Card or Hard Drive options

...I initially wondered why people would be looking to buy these tapes, and if they do, whether it is time to update the camcorder to an affordable SD Card or hard drive version. However, if 8 mm tapes still rock your boat, then the Sony tapes work a treat. There are two kinds of Sony 8mm tapes, the 60 minute (Pack of 3 = £11.99) and 90 minute (Pack of 3 = £21.99) and weigh about 200g per tape. These are lightweight and portable and come in sealed plastic casing with good design covering. You can trust the Sony brand as a leading manufacturer in the video and audio market. The quality of the product is excellent and durable. It will fit snugly into the camcorder without sticking and you will be ready to go. The output very much depends on the quality of your camcorder. What goes in comes out. It will also make a difference if you...

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...

The Canon 10-20mm EF-S lens, perfect for landscapes.

It is designed to be used with all Canon EOS cameras with an APS-C sized censor and an EF-S lens mount, it cannot be used with Canon full frame or film cameras, also some older EOS models will not accept this lens either.
