Summary: Excellent camera for the digital beginner
Review: The Agfa 780C isn't the fanciest nor is it "megapixel", but for the price (in the 4th quarter of 1999) you're unlikely to find a better digital camera for beginners.You may wish to invest in a couple of extras once you get going. I got a Delkin FlashPath SmartDisk Smart card floppy adapter - they're available on Amazon - and was worth every penny. I wasn't thrilled with connecting my camera to the computer. This way I can just remove the Smart media card and put it in the floppy adapter to move 'em over to my hard drive (much quicker, by the way). You'll also want a 8MB or 16MB Smart Card. Agfa gives you a 2MB card, but you'll want to take zillions of pictures and will want the extra space. Finally, you might want a set of NIMH rechargable batteries and a recharger - unless of course you want to purchase a new set of AA alkaline batteries. The Agfa 780C does pretty good with batteries, even if you use the LCD viewer a lot, but for the economy-minded a set of NIMH is essential. In closing, do you really want to be spending $800 on your first digital camera when cameras of the quality/resolution of the Agfa 780C were selling at that price in 1997? If you've got the dough, then go for it. If you want to see what digital photography is all about, start with the Agfa 780C.

Summary: Great for the Price
Review: The camera is extremely easy to use. My 6 year old was taking very good pictures with it! On high quality we have gotten about 15 pictures from the 2 Meg Smart Media. Yes, it is not a mega pixel, but the quality is good enough to send friends and family pictures over the net. I do recommend the AC Adapter by Olympus, especially for downloading pictures to the PC. Great Product!

Summary: Dream Camera!
Review: This camera is the best! I have absolutely no experience but it was so easy to figure it out! I especially like the option of saving or deleting photos on the actual camera, in case someone blinks or something. The auto flash is also awesome because I never know whether or not I need it. It's also so easy to put on my computer, and I can email my pics to friends as attachments in a jiffy. I strongly suggest this camera for great pictures and a good time!

Summary: great camera for the price
Review: This camera was excellent for the price - on sale for $... I used it semi regularly, never dropped it, never exposed it to the elements (heat, liquids, etc.). It ate batteries like mad, but I was satisfied overall....except that it just up and died. New batteries didn't work; the display just flashed the 'empty battery' sign. I put a message on Agfa's website to get tech help. Never got any response except for the automated email they send when you enter a message. Overall -- descent camera that had a fatal flaw that Agfa apparently doesn't give a s**t about. Figured it would cost more to send to Agfa to fix it, so I chunked the f**ker in the trash. Thanks a billion, Agfa. I'll be sure to avoid your products in the future.

Summary: GREAT VALUE FOR THE PRICE
Review: THIS GIVES YOU FAIRLY GOOD RESOLUTION FOR THE PRICE. IT IS AN EXCELLENT INTRODUCTORY MODEL IN THIS PRICE RANGE. THE AGFA SOFTWARE IS ADEQUATE. BUT AN INTERMEDIATE USER WILL WANT A ZOOM CAPABILITY WITH BETTER SOFTWARE. I export my pictures into Photoshop to fix them
