COMMENTS
haven't been able to use it yet without the manual, ok . Great starter camera for our teenager, i like this camera. i just need a manual., i don't have much opinion since i haven't used it yet. Haven't been able to try out the camera because it is packaged without a user's guide, and i could not find one at the polaroid web site. the quick-start page provides incomplete information., takes great pictures. not too user friendly. Menus are too complicated, ok camera, scores would be higher if i knew how to use it ?, i found the menu options and settings vague and not intuitive. .muy buen , csn not use effectively. Not as reliable as i'd like, poor image quality, easy to use though., poor image quality~ easy to use though.. Having trouble with it right now, not much. Not much..., for the money a fair camera., its a nice camera, i love it, its easy to use and i would buy another one
.it is fine, the little tiny manual that came with the camera is pointless...i want to know how everything works.. The lcd screen is very dark hard to see if i got the picture can't figure out the buttons to set the date or other features. need the manual to explain it. senior citizen, it's a great kids' camera., easy to use. Good camera., great camera.. I love the camera., average camera, nice quality picturs., it is great
.nice camera, it is good. I like the cameras ease of operation., it's not a bad camera., blurry pictures and trying to figure out how to fix this
. It's ok, so far so good. Excellent picture quality, easy to use, even for a senior citizen and thats a big plus., i am just trying to see if mine still works, its a very nice camera, i really like the quality of the camera..was a good camera for my kids, need to fix date. I found it difficult to learn how to use this digital camera. its definitely not a "plug & play" product. once i finally picked up on this camera i findiit easy to use but i still can't figure out how to set the date or hae it appear on the picture print outs. i am a contractor who purchased this camera to log my construction work. i use my cell telephone for date stamped photos., i put all fives because i bought it second hand and i did not get a manual with it., great camera. I havn't used it yet. i need the manual first., it doesn't appear to be user friendly. I want the user's guide
, have used it in the past, but forgot how today., itw as cool, need english.
.it was a good buy for the money., its alright but ather cameras are better
. Confusing and the flash is weak
, good camera, works well
