Consumer Reviews
Pros
Holds 80 pictures in internal memory on lowest setting. Can be used as a WebCam.
Cons
No removable memory, no flash
Recommended it?
Yes
I bought my Argus DC1500 Digital Camera a couple of years ago because of the price. I only paid $25 for it so I figured I had nothing to lose if it did not take good pictures.

Pros
Cost and Software Included
Cons
Lack of Flash and Focusing Ability

Dock required to upload to PC.
Recommended it?
Yes
In my camera purchase decision, I looked for quality, ease of use, and price. Quality and ease of use was easy to narrow down. My Canon-owning friends love their cameras, and online reviews are nearly unanimous in praising Canon's picture quality. The decison was between the SD400 and the SD30. I...
