Want A Good Cheap Digital Camera? Try The Argus DC1500 Digital Camera!

bykelly60 Feb 17, 2004

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. At the time, all I wanted was to be able to take snapshots of the kids with it, and it worked fine for this as long as the... Read full review »

Argus 1500 DC: Pictures Can Be Worth A Thousand Words, With The Right Camera

bygypsyrose75 Sep 23, 2001
57 Helpfuls 58 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Cost and Software Included
Cons Lack of Flash and Focusing Ability
Recommended it? Yes

Being in a tight budget I assumed this would be a great purchase. Many people I know have paid anywhere from $200.00 to thousands of dollars for a Digital Camera. I am not into a Professional Photography field so I was not in need of one that whistles and dings. Just a basic 'Point and Shoot' and... Read full review »

This is it.

Pros The best camera out there- color, handling, flash, ease of use
Cons Price
Recommended it? Yes

I was shopping for the “BEST” of the current crop of small ultra compact cameras.  The ultra compact cameras can't compete with the larger cameras but I wanted one that could be taken in a pocket on a daily basis and still have pretty damn good pictures.
