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

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.

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

Cons Slow low light focusing, flash recycle, slow burst and bracketing, batteries charge slow,...
Recommended it? Yes

After using the 5- Megapixel Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 and selling it due to several shortcomings, I was eager to see if the new 6-Megapixel Sony DSC-H2 is much better. The H2 competes with optically-stabilized mega-zoom cameras from Panasonic and Canon (as well as other Sony models) and has the same... Read full review »
