portable 2-1 wonder

by jbach36 , Oct 10 '01
Pros: Voice recorder, higher resolution (than the pencam trio) very portable
Cons: no flash, pics are sometimes grainy
Well, I see Epinions finally added a secion for this camera, good, I have been waiting for this for a few weeks now *smiles*
As I have said in other reviews I have on here, I am a low-end digital camera collector. I like playing with these 'toy'...

I LOVE THIS CAMERA, WHY?

by ezlance , Dec 16 '01
Pros: Small, compact, light weight fits in shirt pocket, good pictures, voice recorder
Cons: No flash, No protective cover
I know, I may get blasted for this but for me 2 reasons,
good pictures, and built in voice recorder, and the ability to combine both, of which I will
discuss in full detail later on. I apologize for the sentence structure, but epinion's...

13 minutes of audio, low quality pictures for just $20

by coolp3 , Mar 07 '05
Pros: Takes pictures, 20 seconds of video, 13 minutes of audio recording and playback
Cons: 10 fps video, 10 KHz audio quality, 640 x 480 picture quality, uses batteries
It's a little large compared to some of digital cameras at this price. 5.5" x 2.2" x 0.7". http://www.aiptek.com/www2/pho to_pcvr-3.htm The pen shape makes sense for the audio recording. Any smaller and holding it might cover the microphone. Great ...

Jack of all trades, but master of none

by olanin_justin , Jul 14 '02
Pros: Inexpensive, small, good for a spare camera
Cons: Bad software, voice recording and video function is very poor, bad battery life
I needed a second digital camera to keep in my car for emergencies. I found this camera at Wal Mart for $49.99. I have a lot of experience with digital cameras and right of the back knew it wasn’t going to be too good of a camera, but with the added...

Don't waste your money!

by dvkt , Apr 20 '02
Pros: small,easy to use, no flash, beeps when clicked
Cons: poor picture quality, recording even worse, beeps when clicked, software is very weak
I wanted to take photos without always being seen taking them. In SECRET. I choose this one because it had a voice recorder too. Having to carry only one gadget seemed like a good idea. However, the recorder was terrible. In a completely silent room...

PenCam Sure, Voice Recorder... eh

by Pyr8 , Nov 24 '02
Pros: Compact, Easy to install, Makes a Fair webcam.
Cons: Sound Quality is poor, Symbols are in some unknown language, The Button Sticks
I bought this little Device While at Best Buy. it was on sale for $30.00 and I needed something that would work as both a small audio recorder and a web cam. A working display model would have been great, I would have opted to pay for something more...

Worst Digital Camera On The Market

by max7098 , Dec 04 '03
Pros: Cheap, small
Cons: Bad quality pictures and sound, expensive USB, annoying beeps, extremely light-sensitive
I originally bought this digital camera from Best Buy for a whopping $80. I, at the time, thought this was an excellent price. Being a complete novice to digital camera shopping, I didn't realize that this digital camera listed no MegaPixel rating. This ...
