This is a toy - do not buy it if you are looking for a retro, digital looking from the early 2000s. It does not produce that effect by any way. However, this is a perfect toy for your kids because at the highest resolution it takes good images for its price.
Expectedly, it is all plastic (and feels like a toy, of course). The setting is a bit difficult to figure out, but you will eventually.
I do not know why it starts off taking in sequences (3 images in a row), but you can adjust this easily.
Some people would be annoyed by the beeping sound every time they click something.
The videos are mediocre (obviously), and the audio quality is not the best.

Vivitar - Point and Shoot 16 MP Digital Camera - Black
This camera was great for taking great pictures and being so compact. It made it soon easy to aim and shoot pictures. Pictures were nice quality pictures as well. I love it! Thanks again, Best Buys!

Do not buy! This camera looks like it’s a good camera but it’s definitely not! It’s not for an adult it’s more for a child! It actually should be a dummy camera! The picture quality sucks and I don’t even know why they even created this cheap camera!

For the price this was perfect for the style of recording I've been doing. It gives me a perfect quality in the retro-ish videos i've been making.

Good camera

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I've seen many comments from people saying that the camera is difficult to use and that its quality is poor. I recently bought one, and for the price, it's totally worth it. The camera is good quality, and the audio quality when recording videos is good. Using it is easy, and transferring photos to a computer is quite easy and fast.
I will put some photos of the quality of the camera.

Not what I was expecting for my teenage daughter after talking to the associate. This would probably be a great camera option for a small child, maybe under 6 years old, but not for teenager. However the model up in the same brand was a lot better!

Works as well as you would expect for the money you are paying. I dont love the loud sounds when you turn it off/on amd the mic quality is awful, but also its cheap and is certainty a camera that functions i suppose

I read the, glowing, 5 star reviews and thought I'd give this camera a try. OMG, pictures are fuzzy and grainy. This may be a good camera for a child, but it's not good for taking on a vacation, or any use for an adult. Picture quality is severely lacking. Don't waste your $$$, even if it is only 33.00, it's not worth the trouble.
