My Best Purchase Yet
 from Washington, DC,  Feb 2, 2010

This is the best Camera I have purchased out of the three I've had in the past nearly, 10 years. The price was great and the product surpassed even my expectations when it came to the quality of the photos once downloaded and printed. The price was EXCELLENT, when I compared this same camera at my local Radio Shack store. It doesn't mention that it also has a nearly flawless still motion feature for action shots. I started telling friends and family to shop at Overstock.Com before making any major electronic, household and gift products because I haven't been disappointed yet with the pricing, quality of the products and the wonderful assistance and return policy.

Impressive service
 from Boonies of Washington state,  Jan 6, 2010

I bought this camera for my daughter's birthday. It was refurbished and I was a liitle concerned about that, but decided to take a chance.It arrived quickly, and to our dissappointment it didn't work. I immediately emailed OS. They responded within 24 hours, by sending out another camera, as well as shipping info to send the other one back. It came quickly, I wasn't double billed. The new camera works great! I just purchased a refurbished vaccuum cleaner. Hasn't arrived yet, but the reviews were good, and I have confidence that the product will work right, or be corrected. OS.com is trustworthy in my book.

Refurbished Camera
 from Onalaska, WI,  Jan 4, 2010

The seller was aware of a battery connection problem and didn't disclose it until the camera arrived at my house (he/she attached a note to the box). The camera routinely goes black and won't power back up until you mess with the batteries. I bought the camera for my preschooler because the children's digital cameras got terrible online reviews. The kid has good dexterity so I figured that she could practice with a real camera and get good quality pics for the same price as a junky new toy camera that takes grainy pics. I'm keeping the camera because it was a good price for the technology. I'm just saying that it would have been nice to know about the battery problem before I went through the trouble of putting it under the tree "from Santa".

There's a reason this camera is so cheap
 from SLC, UT,  Dec 22, 2009

I don't like this camera. It's slow to turn on, runs on and goes through AA batteries really quickly and I hate the way my pictures look. I'm not a camera expert, I bought this expecting it to be an easy to use camera and while it is easy enough to use, the pictures are dark. The camera seems to focus on the brightest thing in the shot and everything else is darker. I have a hard time correcting it even in photoshop.The memroy card is in the same compartment as the batteries so every time you want to take it out, the batteries pop out as well and it's just annoying.It's a low cost camera, but I feel like I wasted my money. I'll be giving it to my kid as a birthday gift and will buy myself something else.

Do Not Purchase!
 from Iowa,  Nov 16, 2009

I was taken in by the low price and what appeared to be great value for money. I should have sent it back as soon as I noticed that it didn't switch on easily. I put it to one side and forgot about it. When I got around to using it, I found that if it did come on, it would shut off and then not come back on without repeatedly opening and closing the battery cover. This was after the 30 day returns period. It looks like this model has a fault, so don't waste your money.

polaroid digital camara
 from Lake Ozark, Missouri,  Oct 31, 2009

I am enjoying my new purchase of the polaroid digital camara with a few exceptions. It didn't come with a manual so I am having to figure some of the features out and how to operate the camara on my own. Also, the lag time from the time you push the button to when the photo is taken is quite a bit longer than my old camara. And lastly, it shows the photo blurry if there is too much movement. I think the camara is a good purchase overall. I really enjoy making purchases from Overstock.com because the shipping is very reasonable and the delivery time is great!

Camera
 from 35634,  Oct 19, 2009

I love my new poleroid. I bought it refurbished and there is a little delay time when I turn it on. Otherwise the camera works great. When I told my friends what I paid for the whole thing they were taken back and asked me if that was my monthly payment. When my friends found out that I got the camera, memory card, computer software, usb connection, and the batteries for under $90.They asked me to find them one. So far I've aided 3 friends in their purchases of one camera, a canope cover and mosquito netting, and a laptop computer all for less than any retailer would allow them to purchase. See ladies, you can teach your friends to be penny pinchers too. Lol!!! Dar

Horrible
 from Massachussetts,  Oct 19, 2009

I returned the first one I purchased because it would not turn on and if it did turn on you have to keep opening and closing the battery door. Its rediculous. I decided to be a good sport and have it replaced instead of getting my $$ back. SAME issues with the second camera. I am going to return again and this time get my $$ back. DO NOT PURCHASE!

Great camera
 Oct 17, 2009

Great camera that pretty much is the same as the more expensive coolpix style cameras.This camera has automatic iso and shutter control etc, which makes it handy to get really good pictures.Note though that you want to get some good batteries, this camera is very fuzzy when it comes to its powersupply.There is also a widescreen function and the camera also takes good video in a 19:9 mode.

Poloaroid Camera
 Oct 7, 2009

I really like this camera! It is a great first camera for someone who doesn't want to be professional, but they want to have a good camera. It was a great price for such a good camera. The only problem that I had with this camera is that when I got it, I put the batteries in, and the batteries that overstock sent me didn't work. So, I had to go and get new batteries. But otherwise, Great camera!

problematic
 Oct 7, 2009

The camera had major operational problems. It was very hard to get to turn on. I had to spend several minutes opening and closing the battery compartment door and holding down the on button before a good enough connection was established so that it would turn on. It was very frustrating and not practical to spend that much time trying to get it to turn on before it could be used.

Good Camera 4 Price
 from Houston, TX,  Sep 27, 2009

I wanted a camera for daily snaps of the kids. This one works well. The images are sharp, but there is a lag time (seconds) for the image to register. Other than that, I have no complaints.
