Summary: 2 and a half months later....
Review: Out of nowhere, the playback mode refused to function. It would stay locked in its processing phase, never displaying anything on the LCD. The LCD would then fade out as the camera would shut off a few minutes later. More symptoms emerged, but it still took pictures until yesterday, when the camera became officially terminal. The pics would not save at all, thus prompting the return. What a blow especially since I got such a great deal... ($$$) for a 2.1 MP digital camera! I should have not expected so much from an obviously open-market item (a ($$$)HK item with a logo tampo printed arbitrarily on its ... paint job).Perhaps I just had the sole rotten apple out of an otherwise good bunch. If you don't mind taking the risk, then go for it. Otherwise, the SiPix SC-2300 is hard to recommend.

Summary: unworthy of calling itself a camera, let alone a digital one
Review: The photo transfer program that comes with the camera is very rigid and does not allow many variations on the save options like other camera systems do. I like to set up different folders for each day that i download the pics and i haven't figured a way to do this using only a couple of key strokes. I use windows xp and the resident file transfer programs will not recognise the camera using the USB connection. I have been using a card reader to download my pictures. This works very well except the memory card is under the same cap as the batteries and every time i pull the card out, the date on the camera has to be reset. This is a pain especcially if you like to use the date stamp. I do hope that someone at sipix reads this and makes some changes.
