This review is from: GE A950-RD 9MP Digital Camera with 5X Optical Zoom and 2.5 Inch LCD with Auto Brightness - RedPros: Inexpensive, decent pictures, good zoom, does with good quality audio, small size, good battery life, feature-rich for the $$$, accepts SD cards for low cost-high volume pictures or video capturing.Cons: Controls are not intuitive, ANNOYING bright red light that precludes flash, rather cumbersome menu, 9.1 megapixel claim questionable.This is a good, decent, low-buck camera that's full of features. At $[...] (the amount I paid) it does just about everything I need it to. I added a 4 GB SD card for ten bucks and I can take up to 995 pictures (or about 35 minutes of video - or a reduced combination of still pics and video). The 2 (AA) batteries last a good long time. The LCD viewer is very clear.One of the biggest issues I had when first using this camera was simply taking a picture. You have to FULLY depress the flash button to get a snapshot. I took about 30 "focus" shots before I got a picture. If you gently press the Flash button the picture simply locks into focus. I had to read the manual to find out how to get a picture. Just a little more muscle into the Flash finger, and 'Voila!' - photo produced!One thing I question is the 9.1 megapixel claim GE makes, as my 3 year old 3.1 Megapixel FujiFilm S2000 takes pictures that have *slightly* lower resolution - I say this puts together probably 5.5-6 megapixel at best. Still for the $$$ I paid this is a great deal.So overall this is good for what it is - an inexpensive camera that lets you capture great moments without breaking the bank : and that's a VERY important thing in this economic environment. Obviously it won't even come close in picture quality to the Canon, Nikon, Sony or other high end cameras. If you're in the market for top quality pictures and extended lens capability - forget it. This camera is not for you. But for good, cheap, decent pictures - consider it a "best buy". I recommend it.
This review is from: GE A950-RD 9MP Digital Camera with 5X Optical Zoom and 2.5 Inch LCD with Auto Brightness - RedWhen I embarked on buying a new camera, I had 4 requirements that had to be met. Firstly, the megapixel had to be between 8-10 Megapixels. Secondly, the optical zoom had to be between 4-5X. Thirdly, it had to have a digital zoom of 4-5X. Finally, the price had to be less than $120.I spent hours reading reviews from many websites but couldn't find a new camera that satisfied all these requirements for under $120. At first, when I found this camera on Tiger Direct's website, I was hesitant because it seemed too good to be true. After getting over the shock that it met all my requirements and the price was under $100, I decided to buy it. Can I tell you that this camera has amazing clarity. Even the the video capture is amazingly clear. It's a steal!
This review is from: GE A950-RD 9MP Digital Camera with 5X Optical Zoom and 2.5 Inch LCD with Auto Brightness - RedYes, the price is great, but the features are even greater. 5x zoom, blink detection, smile detection, shake detection, panorama, a bunch of different exposure programs. I found the menus very easy. (Read your manual, guys.) I bought a 16 GB SD card. Now this camera is also good for unlimited-time videos. I shot one that lasted 12 minutes. It's tough. I've dropped mine twice on concrete and it still works. The best thing is, it is very stingy with the battery consumption. Even 2 AA alkalines last a long time. No frustrations with this camera. My photos have been sharp. Thanks, GE, for packing so much into a small device at a small price.
