Customer Reviews

Fun item

This camera is fun but remember...it's basically a toy. I bought it for snowboarding trips buy I don't know if it would function too well after the inevitable falls! Now I use it when ever i'm out and about. Mostly park activities, kids, pets, subway trains and street scenes.
Experiment with manual zoom (your arm) and with different film speeds. Fun is what matters!

Free Film!

Mine included free 800 asa film! Did not read that in the descrition. The price is high! Wish it was cheaper! It is like a 35mm automatic camera without the batteries and a flash. I plan to have negatives only developed. Hope to save on the cost and then have my scanner that can scan in negatives to the computer. Scanner is the Canon mfr. CanoScan D660u. (is a USB connector). I believe it is avail here at Amazon.com. I have also heard of a Fuji 1x use 8 lens camera for golfing swing analysis. I wonder if it is cheaper!

Fun, but expect a lot of �not so great� shots

I bought a CyberSampler 2.0 Chrome camera this spring and shot a few films. This camera can produce some nice movement shots. I recommend children, pets etc. You should get up close and remember to keep the camera still for the whole shot process. One should experiment with film with high ASA numbers. This is, of course, a novelty camera, and be prepared to "waste" film. The physical make (case, etc.) of the camera is very cheap and plastic indeed, but mine works as it should.

A lot of fun. This camera is the updated version of the Lomographic Society's action sampler. I have them all, I have to admit, I am an absolut Lomo fanatic. Finally I am a good fotographer!!! This camera is much more sturdy and more reliable than the first version of the action sampler. I love to take my kids and dog out in the fields and jump around taking pictures of action and motion. Or take it in the city and take pictures criusing along the boulevards. Thanks Lomographic Society, you brought the joy back in my once upon boring X-mas and Easter shots.

	Sony Cybershot DSCS90 4.1 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom Review: "This Camera is one of the best in its price range. It takes beautiful clear pictures and can be used right out of the box, but its worth learning all its features. The included memory holds about 20-25 pictures so I upgraded to 128mb. I reccomend getting a 128mb card and the Sony camera case. Not only is this one of the best cameras in its class it includes decent software and rechargeable batteries that are at least a 20$ value. HIGHLY reccomend over canon,kodak, and fuji. One more thing this camera has CARL Zeiss lens (if you dont know, great lens) all the competetors have generic lens."

Editorial Reviews from Book News, Inc.
A couple of digital photography experts weigh the advantages and disadvantages of film vs. digital photography, and explain the basics underlying both types of photography. The Grottas provide reality checks on such issues as whether the number of megapixels really matter, and tips on camera selection, use, and e-mailing and organizing photos.

From the Back Cover The megapixel hype
The fact is a camera’s megapixel rating is only a measure of how many pixels (photosensitive sites) an image sensor has…. An image sensor is simply one component of an entire system that produces a digital photograph… So resist buying into the megapixel hype when you’re choosing a digital camera. From Chapter 1
