It Won't Make You Go Broke But It Lacks Good Picture Quality.

by GustavusShaw Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 19 '01
Pros: Its definitely cheap and compact enough to keep some money in your wallet but...
Cons: It lacks the resolution in picture quality of some other well known brands.
I think pictures give us the ability to capture an instance in time and preserve it in our reminiscent memories. I can't begin to add up all of the wonderful pictures my family and I have taken over the past few years, some remembered and likewise...

Great for Fun, but not for Keepsake Pictures

by inputweb , Apr 10 '01
Pros: Great price, USB Ready, Great for Fun, Just point and shoot!
Cons: No Zoom, Bad picture quality, not good for taking pictures of memories
I bought this camera for because of the price, and keep in mind that "You get what you pay for", and this camera certainly proves that and is worth the price ($90), but if you want better picture quality I would recommend spending $100 or more on a more...

RCA CDS1005

by lmallis , Dec 10 '00
Pros: Good size, cheap price, nice interface
Cons: Somewhat unreliable picture quality
I bought the CDS1005 as a Christmas present for a friend who is a graphic artist. Price was only $99 from RCA website. After some testing, I've decided to give it to someone else, whose image-quality standards are not so high.

The perfect camera for "get rich quick" people

by Doodlebug , May 20 '01
Pros: cheap, you don't really need a photoshop to make these pics look funny
Cons: you can't zoom, poor quality pics, friend's with better cameras laugh at you
Have you ever known people that were desperate to "get rick quick"? People that would do anything, go to any great lengths, just to get their hands on some cash? People that would lie, cheat or steal just to get that almighty dollar? Well, I suggest you...

Digital Instamatic

by pinhole2001 , Nov 30 '01
Pros: Low cost, good battery life, easy to use
Cons: Picture quality, no fill flash setting
I pick up a RCA CDS1005 the other day at OfficeMax for $49 + tax. Though it would be a fun little camera to play around with and did not expect too much. Well, I was only disappointed by the flash. No fill setting and it seems to only work if the picture...

RCA CDS 1005

by aoki , Dec 26 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, Quicker if not better than scanning pictures
Cons: non-removal 2MB flash card
Camera controls are easy to figure out/use. Takes average/good quality pictures. I gave up trying to install software/update to use 232 serial cable and switched to USB cable (which is also supplied) with camera. Which in the end was a better way to...

Good ? Maybe & Bad Too

by browndray , Oct 01 '03
Pros: The price I guess, after having checked at a couple of stores.
Cons: The ' EV ' display and instructions too technical for what you get.
I received the " RCA CDS 1005 " as a gift . This is my first, but not last digital camera......the next one will be much better. I still prefer SLR units, the ' old ? ' load the film, set and shoot, take film to store , send in, wait, pay for pi ...

Good value low-end camera for emergency use

by budget2000 , Apr 20 '03
Pros: Standard AA batteries, USB and build-in flash
Cons: Limited capacity and no LCD for preview
I recommend the RCA CS 1005 because it is a great value. Of course, this is just a low-end digital camera so you get what you paid for. The camera has limited capacity and the quality of images is only so-so. On the other hand, this camera is perfect...

by rjfagullar , Oct 10 '01
Pros: Cheap, Easy
Cons: fair quality, Limited # of Pictures before download
Software was easy to setup and It's easy to download pictures, use it like any drive on a computer. Pictures tend to be dark however it's easy enough to clear and take more. The neat feature was the way you can hook it up directly to your TV or VCR and...

Don't waste your money.

by cheezit_01 , Feb 15 '02
Pros: It won't cost much to get you started. Maybe 50 to 60 bucks.
Cons: Can't look at the pics till after you put them on your computer.
Mistake number 1: I bought one of these digital "marvels".
Since it was the first digital camera that I had ever owned, I was really enthused....right up until I took it out of the box. The whole experience, from installing batteries to getting the...
