Summary: Cool & Hot! Not an oxymoron!
Review: This camera, though it appears somewhat bulky, fits the hand well and is comfortable to hold while shooting. The fun, sweet little pictures are a hit, no matter who you show them to! It's so quick and easy to grab a picture and bring a smile! :)

One thing I became aware of... a couple of times when trying to transfer the digital pictures to my computer, I got a "No camera connected" error. In each case it was just that the plug wasn't all of the way plugged into the camera (it took me awhile to figure this out because it appeared to be plugged in well, but wasn't). I was relieved to find that it wasn't a fault in the camera, because I was having so much fun with it!

The biggest drawback I find with this camera is that it seems to be made somewhat cheaply (though I haven't had time to either prove or disprove this impression). For example, the battery compartment cover on mine doesn't fit really well, and made me that much more aware of the concern about breaking the plastic when closing the compartment. I don't think the plastic will be a problem as long as it's not rough handled. I also found that, while a lot of instruction isn't so much necessary, I think the manual is lacking. For example, I had no idea if I should pull out the film right after I made the exposure, or leave it in the camera (I don't have instant camera experience, yes, you can pull it right out) and all I found in the instruction manual about that after the camera's operation instruction was "press the shutter button to take the picture" DUH! (no, I'm not from Florida <j/k!> <grin>)...

I should also say that the "troubleshooting" part of the manual was very helpful!

The quality of the pictures, both digital and instant, is good! I just had to be sure not to get too close because the flash will blast out the image if it's less than... maybe 4 or 5 feet away. So resist the temptation to get in close because the picture is so small on the instant shots.

The software that comes with it is a blast! Lots of fun stuff to do with that!

I like the camera A LOT and am so far VERY happy that I bought it! This really is a positive review, I just wanted to give a very honest review of the product. I'd buy it again in an instant (no pun intended)!

It only comes with a 6 exposure non-sticky "roll" of film (but everything else you need), so you might want to get some extra of that right away. ;)

Summary: Excellent entry level digital - typical Polariod quality
Review: This is my first digital camera & love it! The i-zone instant portion compares favorably to other Polaroid products I've used in the past. The digital portion is easy to use and easy to connect to my PC (Compaq running Windows 98). I've experienced no problems using the camera except how to hold it - putting two cameras together at a 90 degree angle poses some ergonomic questions as to the proper way to hold the camera in use. As far as resolution goes, I'm happy with it - don't expect 35 mm quality - rather it's a fun toy to send snaphots through the net and to play with digitally using the supplied software.

Summary: For $30 this is a great digital camera!
Review: This is our first digital camera and, so far, I am pretty impressed. I expected much less due to the low price of $30 after rebate! It was VERY easy to install the software and get the camera plugged in to my computer. Unlike other people who have reviewed this camera, there aren't any problems with the Polaroid software working with my HP scanner software. Photos download very quickly, no time spent waiting around. Thumbs up!

Summary: The best
Review: this is the best camera I've used

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Horrible - won't last more than a month
Review: This is the most worthless camera you can buy. Mine stopped working a week after I bought it. The image quality is very poor. Its simply IMPOSSIBLE to take a decent looking shot with this. The chances that all condition will be perfect for this camera to work correctly are 1 in 100 (distance, lighting, etc.)
