What a piece of . . .
I love purple, own tons of things that are purple. I loved the idea of this camera and something great for those short trips, etc. I load the first roll of film and have a blast on the Navy Pier in Chicago for the day. I buy more film and then jet to Mexico. I TRY to load the next roll of film! Nothing! Am I wrong!? I see the problem and was unable to ever resolve it! And what's worse is that I bought the identical gift for a friend's daughter in England! She can't return it now and I wonder if it is still working for her. I am too embarassed to ask! You get what you pay for!!! Not another Vivitar product!

I love it, but mine was defective.
What I loved about mine, which I bought from amazon.com, was that it was cute, stylish, small, and very lightweight. APS and three photo sizes, including panorama, is what drew me to it initially. Then the transluscent color. But mine was defective, and I don't know how common that is for this model. I wish more people would post ratings. With mine, the film did not "drop in" so nice, it had to be forced in, then got stuck inside and did not want to come out. Also, (and most importantly) it did not take the 3 different sizes of pictures. I slid the slider to the 3 different positions throughout the roll, but it only took one size the whole way through. So, I had bad luck. Maybe yours won't be defective, they can't all be, can they? If you get a non-defective one, you'll love it 'cause it's cute, small, and very light. ... Read more

Not what I expected
I was very disappointed when the camera arrived. It was large, clunky and unattractive. I did not try the camera, rather just sent it back. A definite case of you get what you pay for. Find something else!

Pretty Good Camera

Greatness
I've figured out the problem with the camera not turning back on. I had the same problem, took it apart, and it didn't take long to realize what was going on. The battery connectors were VERY dirty and corroded with something. Clean them with a little rubbing alcohol on a q-tip and you're good to go. NOTE: You don't have to take it apart to do this, but I did to discover it.

Horrible
I have had this camera for three years and have never had a picture worth printing. The pictures are always blurring, they are ruined by lighting from the outside. The photos are terrible!! Don't buy this camera. I am online now to find a new camera. This one was a waste of my money!!!

Hate It
We have had this camera for a year and have yet to get it to work...even after calling tech support. Finally, after reading the reviews on this site I see that the problem is probably that we're running Windows XP.

Even if we could work around the software problem, the camera will not turn on any more...even after changing out the batteries.

Complete waste of money!

Wasted my money
I bought the ViviCam 20 and cannot use on my computer with Microsoft Windows XP. They tell me it could damage my computer now or in the future if I use it.

Great value, compact, good-looking
...
The first camera had a faulty lens -- distant objects were unacceptably blurred and focus was not even across the frame. Also the body was coming apart at the point where the wrist strap is attached. Focus on the replacement was much better, however that camera stopped working within hours.

Luckily the third unit provided by the store has worked perfectly for a month now and I am very happy with it.

Colour is always excellent and image quality is as good as you will find on a relatively inexpensive VGA resolution camera. There is none of the unpleasant artificial sharpening that I've seen on other 640x480 models.

Low-light performance is also a pleasant surprise (for a CMOS-based camera) with good results in bright indoor lighting. The built-in flash also works well under these conditions -- just filling in the shadows enough. Shadows start to 'block up' when light-levels are lower, but even these shots have a certain gritty charm.

The camera stores up to about 60 VGA images on the internal memory. The different settings for sunny, cloudy, indoor bright and indoor dark seem to have no effect on the resulting images whatsoever.

If you don't use the flash much, the batteries appear to last for ever. I've taken around 500 images so far (maybe 25 flash shots) and the two AA batteries that came with the camera are still going strong.

There is a macro facility that focuses at about 12 inches from the subject and the switch can also be placed in an 'onofficial' midway position to focus better at around 24 inches. Which is good for taking shots of yourself with the camera at arms length. However, when used as a streaming webcam it seems to slow down a p200 way too much.

The camera is too noisey. It bleeps when you take a shot and when selecting options, it bleeps each time you click past a different setting. On self-timer it bleeps a countdown which increases in speed -- about twenty bleeps by the time it actually takes the picture. This is quite funny but an embarrassment in some situations and makes the camera unusable in many public places.

The auto-shut off is a bit too fast. The problem is that this also resets all the settings. Which is annoying if you are preparing to take a self-timer shot or waiting for something to happen.

The tripod socket is a welcome extra. The camera has stylish good looks and is extremely compact. Transfer of images to PC is simple and fast using a USB cable.

Pictures look excellent if reduced down to about 400 pixels or under and sharpened slightly -- for use on a web page for example. This is the ideal snapshot camera for any web designer.

Despite its few minor faults you can't argue with the tremendous value for money and the overall quality from this camera. The build quality and reliability has been an issue for me, so if you get a unit that doesn't seem 'right' take it back to the shop and ask them to swap it... ... Read more

So Simple to use!
This is a very simple camera to use! I am completely pleased with it. Loading the film is a breeze and using the zoom feature is very simple. The pictures are clear and bright. I have had no trouble using this camera. It's lightweight and looks great!

Great Camara
We needed a simple camara to solve our problems as procrastinating film developers. With a date stamp and zoom lense we were able to record the beginnings of a new baby with dates and minute stamped pictures. The quality of the pictures were great. Features that let you change the date format, zoom and auto off is a perfect match for my family. ... Read more

Digital Brownie Hawkeye
I bought this primarily for eBay auctions. It performs adequately, but "battery hungry" is this camera's middle name. Battery life is about three hours total, a bit longer if you avoid using the display and flash. It does take good pictures, but only with sufficient ambient light. The flash tends to wash out the image, and the red eye feature is useless. I was told you can't get a really decent camera for under $150, and that is apparently true. I bought a cheap camera, and that's what I got.

Awsome Camera
This is a great digital camera for anyone. I just got it and it works wonderfuly. the pictures for me come in really clear. this is a real good deal. The only reason i gave it 4 stars is because it uses the batteries pretty fast. Other than that its really good.

Cool
I got this for x-mas a year ago, and so far I have been satisfied. It has good quality with light, and if you don't have light there is a flash. The batteries do drain kind of quick. But it works good for me, and I use it for simple photography.

Bad quality lens.
This camera could have been great if the lens was of a decent quality. Unfortunately, objects that are relatively close or object at infinity focus are fuzzy. Even at the optimal range for the lens the images are just not good. I realize that fixed focus lenses have their limitations, but this one is definitely much much worse than other fixed focus lens cameras that I've used. Steer clear of this camera, even if you find it cheap at a garage sale.

Easy to use, but...
I'm not impressed at all with this camera. It's alright for the price and all, but without an A/C adapter it really drains the batteries. It would have been nice to have one. It is fairly easy to use though and is a good beginner digital camera if you have the money to constantly replace the (4) AA batteries after just a couple sessions. ... Read more

The 110 Format in digital
The Vivicam 5 is the digital equivalent to the 110 film format; nothing more, nothing less. It's small, measuring 2.18" x 2.18" x 0.94" and 1.4 ounces with battery. The neck chain that's included weighs more, LOL. The raw, unedited images you get are comparable in quality to 110, but because it's a digital image, Photoshop and similar imaging software can measurably improve the quality. This is the perfect size camera for situations that won't allow room for a conventional size point & shoot cam. The only thing I don't like about this camera is the LCD. The mode icons are extremely small. Fine art photographers who delve into Holga, pinhole cameras, and Lomography will be surprised with the Vivicam 5's imaging qualities. Are there similarities? It's up to the viewer. ... Read more

All in one
Have recently purchased this lens for my Maxxum St si. The lens weighs much heavier than the Minolta 35-80mm lens which came with my camera but covers a much extended focal length range, possibly all that I would ever want to shoot within. The focusing rings turns as faster as the oneon the smaller lens did.
Though the lens dwarfs the relatively smaller ST si camera body but the overall look of my camera is impressive. Hope the wide focal lenght coverage will equally have a premium optical quality.

Convenient and versatile but not perfect
I was excited to get this lens and have the capability of zooming in close without having to switch lenses for wide angle shots. It does a good job, is very easy to operate, but I am a bit dissappointed with its ability to focus up close. It can not take pictures of objects closer than 6-8 feet. So I will still keep my 35-80 lens in my camera bag for those shots that I just can't back away from. ... Read more
