Should give these things a military rating! [Posted on 2003-10-03]
This summer while I was in a canoe taking pictures of my daughter, she accidently tipped us over. Here I am in a cold mountain lake with my Mavica and I think my camera is ruined. Well when I got home I dried the camera out for a week and cleaned out the lenses. Put in a new battery and the thing ACTUALLY WORKED and has been taking great pictures for the past four months. For something that is not rated as water resistant, I was surprised by the hardiness of the camera.
Complex as it may seem, this is no wuss of hardware.
IT LOSES PICTURES!!! [Posted on 2003-10-21]
Not sure if anyone else in this reviewer pile has seen this, but I have had several "life events" including birthdays, my son's sonogram, and others that the camera shows upon review through its display the pictures you have taken. However, upon connecting it to the USB interface, they disappear. Disconnecting from the USB cable does not get the pictures back. Can you believe that Sony would release a product like this? I bought this device for the ease of use, USB capability, and the CDR/CDRW format. However, for anyone wanting a reliable camera buy a $12 disposable! You can only rely on this unit giving you permanent digital pictures 91.2% of the time. If I had to do it again, I wouldn't buy this unit. There are far smaller units at a fraction of the price with 100% reliability. Granted, some of them don't use CDR/CDRW technology but memory sticks are fine with me it they don't lose pictures (and the cameras are quite smaller).
NEW LEVEL OF PHOTOGRAPHY [Posted on 2005-05-03]
I got this as a gift from my parents. They rarely buy me expensive items and when I opened this..I had no idea just how wonderful this camera was. It might not be top of the line..but it produces WONDERFUL photos. I am a scrapbooker and take lots of photos. All of photos I've taken with this camera have received RAVE reviews!! I was told once that I should be a professional photographer!!! - HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CAMERA!!
Great quality... for the most part... [Posted on 2006-03-20]
Overall, this camera is GREAT. It takes beautiful pictures, has a good zoom, and doesn't eat up battery life.
However... It takes FOREVER to get the picture recorded onto the CD, and...
IT LOSES PICTURES. We had over ten pictures lost at once on our camera (Sounds like the same problem John McDonnough had in his review). This has only happened once, however.
Otherwise, it has been an absolute GREAT family camera, my family takes it almost everywhere we go (including a family cruise we went on in 04) and the shots were great, even enlarged!
Mavica Review [Posted on 2007-04-09]
I have had this camera for 6 years and have never had a single problem with it. Recently I took it on my honeymoon and posted the pictures when I returned. I have had people asking me what kind of camera it is because the pictures turned out great! I have never had a picture lost or have had problems deleting pictures as some of the other reviews have stated. It is great to know that all my pictures that I have downloaded to my PC are always backed up on the disc. It is somewhat bulky, but has been more than I would have ever asked for in a digital camera that has lasted this long!
