I just got a Polroid Digi Camera but haven't had a chance to upload any of the pics that were taken. Do any of you know how the quality of these are? I bought it at a pawn shop for only 15 bucks. And my home computer is at a friends house being re built and I won't get it back for a few more days. So I won't beable to see how well my pics turn out till I get it back. so if any of you know anything about them let me know!!

Here's a link to one just like it on Ebay Digi Camera

I hope it's good cause then I can post pics of my babies on here!

If you are looking to print photos from this thing you'll be disappointed you need a camera that will take pictures at 1632x1232 resolution, it doesn't have zoom. If it's just for the web and emailing pictures it'll probably be okay, but ya get what ya pay for.

My digital camera is a Kodax CX4230 and I paid nearly $400 for it....

Well considering that I got it for 15 bucks at a Pawn shop and they useally sell for half price I figured it wasn't going to be top quality. Not really looking for printing out photo's just have to do some posting of my kitties and sending some pics to family and friends. So if they come out pretty decent on the net then that's all I really care about. I can always turn around and sell it back to the pawn shop if it's really crappy LOL I just wanted a digi cam and with all my up coming Medical bills on top of being out of work for the past ohhh month and a half I couldn't pass up a 15 buck digi cam LOL


Thanks for the input tho
hopfully sometime in the next couple of days I will have pics of me and my furbabies up on here

Wow that's a lot of money for that camera. I have a CX4300 and only paid $140 for it on ebay. It's a 3.2 MP and produces beautiful prints.

LOL Cabbie, I was stunned at the price you paid too. I paid $150 US for my Kodak. Didn't remember that you guys have "different" dollars than we do!!

My Kodak is the CX4310. It's the one I went to Wal-Mart at 6 a.m. the day after Thanksgiving for. I got it for $99, and I'm pleased with the quality of the pictures so far.

Up until this Christmas I had a 1mp camera that didn't have too many options. I had it for 5 years.
It took good pictures for 'net stuff, so I think you'll be happy with your camera.

Christmas. It is the Kodak Easyshare DX6340. It costs $279 at Wal-Mart and Target. I probably could have gotten a better deal on Ebay, but most of the Kodak cameras on Ebay were factory refurbished. I wanted it to be factory new. It takes fantastic pics! (See Blondie and Lily on "For Pics Only" Forum).

I just bought a digicam recently too. It's an Olympus Camedia C-4000 zoom. I paid (get ready for it) over 700$... Canadian... for it. But I couldn't ask for a better camera! I didn't want a point-and-shoot. I like to be able to play with aperture, ASA, focus, etc... And for my first digital camera, this one is perfect. What makes it even better, is that my brother is jealous of it! He wants one just like it!

Wow it's amazing what Digi Cam's go for!!!!! at the pawn shop they had a better quality cam for 60 bucks all I remember about it was that it was a Kodak. But I only had 20 bucks to spare. So I got the cheapy and had money left over LOL. Got the new computer home today and tried to hook up to Cam to get the Pics off of it but had problems
so I have to take these troubleshooting tips I printed out home and try again! Hopefully it will work if not I am gonna be sad
oh well just means that I take it back to them and get SOME of my money back and then save up for a semi good one
but we will see. From that link Lorie yours seems to take pretty decent pics. but the resolution is WAY higher then what this Cam is supose to be. Oh well we will see!!!
