It is a very good 4mp bridge camera that has given me some good shots. The battery cover broke but it would still take photos. I bought a second hand one on ebay to hopefully swop the battery covers over. When it arrived it had the same fault but my son (then 10 years old) started using it. I then found a job lot of 4 on ebay that were faulty returns and got them for £60. When I got them, 1 had a tiny scratch on it but worked perfectly. The 2nd one worked except that you have transfer photos by a card reader, 3rd one worked after a light whack on the side. 4th one didn't recognise the SD card. So now we have 3 good working ones and plenty of spare parts! _________________ "Why is the Rum always gone?" #100 Back to top uncle aj Keeper of lost marbles Status: Adrian Favourite Watch: TT GMT Ceramic Joined: 05 Aug 2007 Posts: 5015 Location: Work, Saudi Arabia..Home Bolton, England Posted: Sat Oct 03, 2009 10:17 am    Post subject: ColinB wrote: uncle aj wrote: ColinB wrote: Also have Konica Minolta Dimage Z3 (6 of them! ) Are they cheaper by the half dozen?     I had one before I got the DSLR.

That sounds like my friend Mark.  He uses an Olympus camera for under water work.  His case sprung a leak and ruined his camera so he bought another on eBay.  Then he saw some more for sale he bid for them and won.  Now he has a couple of good cameras, plenty of accessories and spares.   _________________ I'd feel lost without my GPS Uncle AJ's, an equal opportunity dictatorship.
