Can a digital camera this cheap & cheerful actually work?

by _Cassandra_ , Jan 02 '01
Pros: Good value for money, USB connectivity, great software.
Cons: Low resolution, cheap construction, ONLY works with Windows 98.
You betcha it can! I'd been thinking of buying a cheap digital camera just for fun after having access to several higher end models. It seems the little pocket sized Aiptek Pencam Trio digital camera has been a very popular Christmas present for...

Not for me.

by xuvetyn , Dec 02 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, tiny, fast USB connection, alright for a just-for-fun camera.
Cons: falls over in stand, flimsy plastic body, poorly designed in many ways
After reading the rave reviews of this product here in Epinions.com, I picked this up as a possible Christmas gift for my 18-year old little sister. She loves taking pictures of herself and her friends and plastering them all over her room. I had to...

An Interesting "Toy" (?)

by AtlantaGreg Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 31 '00
Pros: Very easy to set up and use. Movie feature is "neat".
Cons: Quality is poor, but ok for the price being paid. Low res isn't even worth using.
I was having some kind of holiday-ending panic attack this weekend, and decided to go spend some money (that always helps, doesn't it?). I had heard about the Aiptek Pencam Trio through Aiptek's web site, and since I don't own a camcorder, thought it...

Great for outdoor use - a perfect camera in daylight!

by gtergy , Mar 16 '01
Pros: Cheap, Easy to use, USB, Great softwarepackage, Small, Trio (Digital camera, camcorder and webcam)
Cons: No Flash, No Zoom, No lense cover, Not that robust
If you plan to buy a digital camera, and don't want to spend a lot of money this camera might be just right for you. As long as you are aware of its limitations it works well and comes with a good softwarepackage.

Limitations:...

This camera is neat!

by ezlance , Nov 20 '00
Pros: small, light weight, easy to download pictures
Cons: no flash, instruction book confusing
When I took my first picture, the quality blew me away. I was pleasantly surprised at how clear, the picture was. The color was good, but certainly not 35 millimeter quality, but good enough for email, and showing the picture to others.

What...

Phenomenal Photos... just like spies take

by jmm1021 , Dec 28 '00
Pros: Lightweight, easy to operate, high resolution photos
Cons: Gee, no flash for shots in dark
Remember those old James Bond flicks where James would be given a pen that was really a camera? Well, forget the movies, Q must work for Aiptek now. This camera, really just a memory stick with a lens and a pocket clip, gives the user a lightweight...

Fun Portable Camera

by lego-han , Oct 26 '00
Pros: fun, small, light, easy to use, inexpensive
Cons: needs good lighting for perfect pictures
I saw this camera in the new Nieman-Marcus catalog and had to have it. The next day I went down to a local store and got the clerk to pull it out of the back room. I immediately started playing with it finding out it's strong and weak features.

Go APE on windows 2000

by battaliou , Nov 04 '01
Pros: Cheap, portable, inconspicuous, possible to install on 2000
Cons: 26 frames does not a video make!
My father bought himself a new pc and got a webcam with it. This meant that his AIPTEK webcam which he had bought previously was up for grabs. This was good.

My joy soon turned to frustration when I realised that the cd supplied was not going...

Is that a camera in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

by Airmark1 , Jan 26 '01
Pros: Size. Common Battery. Weight. Ease. Idea.
Cons: So So Image Quality. Battery dead=lost pictures.
This little Aiptek Camera is another addition to my arsenal of "toys". It was a Xmas present to me, and to tell you the truth, I did not even know that it was on the market.

The size and ease are the most important qualities to me. I am an...

No not this one either

by Kmondon , Jan 06 '01
Pros: small size
Cons: poor image quality
I received this camera from my mother in law for Christmas. I initially thought that it would be a valuable tool to use in my practice. My thoughts were soon changed.

The unit is a handy size and childishly simple to operate, but the images...

A Great Deal

by QuickGold , Jan 03 '01
Pros: Price, features
Cons: Picture quality
I got the Pen Cam Trio for Hannukah and was suprised by it. The Trio is a web cam, camcorder and digital camera in one. I'll review each aspect.

Web cam: The video quality for web cam use isn't as good as Intel or Kodak's web cams, as it...

Pencam Trio - Good for Web Images

by KAR120C Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 29 '01
Pros: Small size, cheap price high capacity
Cons: Low resolution, software is weak.
The small, inexpensive Pencam Trio is not intended to be a high resolution digital camera. It is supposed to be a small, cheap resolution digital camera! That being said, you know what you are getting.

The camera itself is sturdy enough. Its...
