| striker1211's Full Review: Polaroid a300 Digital Camera |
I bought this a300 at wal-mart a few hours ago. Beware, the a300 pictured on wal-marts website is not the one you get. It shows a optical viewfinder but in fact it does not have one. They both say a300 on them but i guess this is an a300v2 or something. On the lowest setting the pictures look like a camera phone on it's lowest settings. On it's highest setting it looks like a high end desktop webcam with it's contrast all the way up. If you are not in perfect sunlight the viewfinder will be dark. In a room lit by a 75 watt bulb i could barely make out my posters in the digital viewfinder. I compared the pictures taken by this camera with that of a 1.3 megapixel olympus from 1999 and the olympus blew it out of the water. Even the LCD was brighter on the olympus.
