Argus DC3810 Digital Camera

Pros: FULL Featured, great resolution, very low price for features
Cons: Cheap construction, color rendition poor, slow to process

This is my third digital camera. As the price of technology drops, I keep upgrading. First a 1 MP than a 2 MP. I still use the earlier digitals, each of the three have their advantages. I wanted the additional pixels to have the "latitude" that my ...

Pros: Price, 5 mega pixel images, optical zoom, manual features.
Cons: Cumbersome to use at first, slow autofocus.

I've had the camera for a few days now and so far so good. If this camera cost the same as other 5-mega pixel cameras I would likely pass it up. However I purchased the camera for $119 us. For this price I would have been satisfied if it worked at all ...

Pros: Price; Excellent sharpness; 5 megapixels! Large print size; External power adapter available.
Cons: No hot shoe for flash; Slow (f3.37) lens. Short zoom: 3x optical, 2x digital

I set up my first darkroom over 40 years ago and was thrilled when Photoshop liberated me from the c ...

Pros: Pixel Compression, uses regular batteries and compact flash card.
Cons: Very difficult to use, pictures too dark, adds an extra blue hue to everything.

This is a full function 5.2 megapixel camera. We bought it to take pictures of our newborn. I am a novice photographer but an advanced computer user. I can figure out how to get things done and how to use things the right way. Initially, we were ...

Pros: 5.0 megapixel, cheap price
Cons: poor lcd, color quality

This is definitely a great price for a 5 megapixel camera. I paid nearly half what most of the popular brands sell for. The color quality is not as close of a match as I've seen on some 2 megapixel cameras though. You can always photoshop it though. For the price, it's a great first digital camera until the rest fall to a realistic price

Pros: good price, good quality photos, good entry level
Cons: slower to focus, bigger size

For the first digital camera from this company, they did a great job. Argus is known for their cameras in WWII.

This camera has great battery life and captures some pretty good quality photos. If you are a stickler for absolutely perfect, this might not be the one for you. If you are looking for good quality, photos of family, landscape and the dog then this camera is for you.

The camera is somewhat slow to focus when you go from one focal length to a another. But, on the other hand because it is not constantly focusing it appears to trade off for better battery life.

Menu is good, the LCD screen is good.

It is larger than many cameras, but this also gives you something to hold.

Pros: 5MP 3x zoom low cost. AA batteries. ). File timestamp. Vidio/audio mode. Compact Flash format.USB
Cons: Focus requires a mid-button press and pause before taking picture. Slow record time. Slow review

My first digital camera was a 1 MP Kodak w/o zoom. Moving up to this full featured 5 MP 3x optical zoom was great. The price was great and I was even able to use a rebate. It's nice to have all the controls (especially if you are used to a 35mm). One of the features I liked the best was the file timestamp. Now I don't have to keep a calendar with all of my picture/descriptions. Has internal op zoom (lense doesn't move outside camera).Video/slideshow playback to TV. Redeye reduction flash.

Pros: The specifications, five megapixels, the design, and the price, appealed to me.
Cons: The picture quality was totally unacceptable.

I purchased this 5 megapixel camera thinking it would provide better pictures than my Sharp 4 megapixil and another 3 megapixel camera I had. And the price was right.

My findings with the recent acquisition of the Argue 3810 digital camera, which is my fourth digital camera purchase, has been very bad. Right out of the box, the picture quality under any condition was too inferior to even show. Indoors, the camera refused to focus, the focusing light kept blinking, and the pictures were equally unacceptable. Argus now has the cameraa and an estimated turn-around time exceeds one month. I would never purchase another ARgus camera and wonder what I will do with this one.
