Pros: Holds 80 pictures in internal memory on lowest setting. Can be used as a WebCam.
Cons: No removable memory, no flash
Summary: 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. At the time, all I wanted was to be able to take snapshots of the kids ... read more

Pros: Good for kids if $10 or less, easy to use.
Cons: Worse picture quality I have seen in a camera.
Summary: Unless you are buying one of these for $10 or less you got ripped off. These cameras would be decent for kids who just want to post some quick snapshots on the net but not much else. I wasn't expecting superb picture quality when picking up a 1/4MP ... read more

Pros: Price - Ease of Use
Cons: Poor Picture Quality
Summary: Thought this would be a good kids gift. I was wrong. It is very easy to use but the lack of a flash and hazy or grainy pics are no way even close to being acceptable for a kid or anyone else. Outside pics where a little better but still grainy and washed ... read more

Pros: affordable
Cons: very vague instructions

Pros: cheap
Cons: does not work... get what ya paid for
Summary: It is a waste of time and money. I paid 20 for it at office max in North Carolina. I thought it was a great deal, but I none of my computers could read the installation CD. I tried on my new laptop running Windows XP Pro, and three other machines running ... read more

Pros: Cheap, easy to use, fun, makes videos
Cons: Low quality pictures, no flash
Summary: I bought one of these Argus digital cameras in a cigarette shop, of all places. I had seen the DC1500 advertised in Office Mmax ads for $25 for a long time, and even though I knew that at that price it was probably a piece of junk, I thought it would be ... read more

Pros: Easy to use. Not very expensive.
Cons: Picture quality is very poor.
Summary: For a $60 camera marked down to $25, I thought this was a pretty good deal. Even at $25, I can't recommend this camera. The lighting has to be bright just to take a picture and the picture is of such poor quality, you wonder why they even call this a ... read more

Pros: Inexpensive, good for kids
Cons: Where should I begin? No flash, no removable memory
Summary: So you are in the market for a digital camera, and you see one on sale for a very reasonable price, too reasonable for a digital camera. There is a reason. I worked in two retail establishments that have sold these cameras. I have yet to have anyone ... read more

Pros: Easy to use, affordable and does just what I wanted it to do!
Cons: Eats batteries up so fast that they must be removed after use!
Summary: I was in need of a digital camera to add some pictures to my e-mails and on-line auctions. I didn't want to spend a fortune for something that would only get limited use, so I picked up the Sunday paper to scan the ads for a good deal.
I found ... read more

Pros: There isn't any.
Cons: Poor quality photo's

Any how, the Argus DC-1500, is aboslutly horrible.

Pros: Good starter camera for an older child, very inexpensive
Cons: You get what you pay for
Summary: Once again, the impulse bug bit me. This time, the purchase was the Argus DC1500 digital camera (in neon purple, no less). My son, who is spoiled, has been asking for a digital camera. Of course, what he had in mind was my Olympus D-490 $400 camera. ... read more

Pros: Cheap
Cons: Not cheap enough, found better stuff in Cracker Jack boxes
Summary: There's a sucker born every minute. Sad to report they got me this time. I bought one of these at Office Max. It was discounted from $59.99 to $24.95. Left the store feeling like I had really found a bargain.
I had decided to take a chance ... read more

Pros: Cheap, nice software package.
Cons: Poor quality, no flash, outdoor pictures only.
Summary: My wife had to have this camera which was rebated down to $25 at OfficeMax. Took it back the next day. Make sure you can return this camera after you try it out, because I'm sure that you will.
Very grainy and sometimes distorted color ... read more

Pros: A Cheap, easy to use camera.
Cons: Your best photo's will be bad.
Summary: I bought the Argus DC1500 on sale at Meijer for $39.00. I read on the package and saw that it could also be used for video. This made it sound like a superb deal.
The camera is easy to use and the instructions are simple.
