Paris via Casio

Before my Paris trip, I took a few fotos to be sure I knew how to use the many knobs and buttons. I stayed with the Auto mode the whole trip. The colors were super quality and resolution much better than I expected. I took 5 64MB memories and three sets of batteries. I actually used only one set of batteries and 2 64MB memories for the whole trip. My only goofs were to accidently switch to multiple shot mode and fill up my memory. No problem, I just erased them and got my memory back One of the best things was the diopter correction dial for tbe view finder. I didn't need my glasses to see perfect views and check focus (The screen view panel is hard to see in bright sun light). (Another thing I need is the Macro Mode which lets me photo the microcircuit boards and the other little gadgets I design, at just a few inches away from the product}.
Now at home, I have so many fotos to play with. I use ixla software (I have used this before for digital photo editing) to do this and print the final result with an HP 1115 PhotoSmart printer.
My only sadness is to never need all the beautiful German lenses I collected over the years for my SLR camera (Exacta). This QV-4000 does it all!
I am really happy with my purchase, you will be too....

Great picture quality

I have been using this camera for a year and I'm very pleased with it. Pictures are great, it's easy to use but if you want to do more advanced setup, it's possible. The only dark side is that it takes about 3sec to turn the camera on.

I purchased the QV-4000 about a month ago. I've used it to take short video clips to send to family in other states... It's a great camera to have around...
The dial is a little hard to turn but, since I've accidentally turned it once or twice, it's good that it's hard to do. Second... Battery Life. I've only been able to get about 70 shots in 60 min with the original set of batteries. ...Now, for anyone concerned about a camera made by casio - don't be concerned. Sony makes the Optics from what I've heard. The camera is pretty good under most conditions. Interior light can be tricky if you forget that it has white balance control. The software is so simple to use... Hmmm... plug in camera. Hit "Okay" in window that pops up... wait a second or two... Then, an HTML page pops up with thumbnails on it. You can right click and then "send to email recipient"... It'll even ask if you want to send a smaller picture to cut down on email size... Great!
Quality of pictures... Well, they are absoblutely gorgeous! They are huge, too. I'd recomend that you get Photoshop to do any editing.. the included editor is kind of off the mark if you get what I mean. The 32 Meg card will hold about 20 pictures at high resolution or about 6 or so 30 second video clips. I've bought a 128M chip since they are so [inexpensive]... All in all, with the camera and the 32 Meg chip, it's the best set up you can get for the price! Good camera. Easy loading. Great Battery Life. Great pictures. Have fun.

Excellent!!!

I took my QV-4000 to Rome for 10 days and there was nothing it could not do for me.

I wanted a camera small enough to be unobtrusive, yet powerful enough to offer me a myriad of options for picture taking. The automatic and manual options did not disappoint. The dark interiors of churches turned out light enough to see because I could manually set the aperture or speed to cover the situation. Yet when I wanted fast shots the auto features functioned well.

I used the panorama mode often and even when handheld (not recommended) the results were excellent. Even 360 degrees in the Pantheon (handheld) was good enough to impress family and friends.

Close-up, portraits, and scenics were easily managed by the Best Shot modes.

I like the large capacity (I also purchased the IBM Microdrive) so that I could take as many pictures as I wanted without worrying about running out of storage space or downloading. (I had no access to a computer to do so.) And I could instantly view the shots and delete any that did not measure up.

The only slight disappointment was the view screen was nearly impossible to see in the bright sunlight, but I could always use the viewfinder instead.

All in all, an excellent choice and very dependable. I recommend it highly.

QV-4000 is best yet

I'm on my 4th digital camera. I read countless reviews of Canon G2, Nikons, Kodaks, and Sonys before I bought the Casio. I owned it for 5 months now. I am thrilled with every aspect: picture quality, lens, features, and speed of processing each photo. My criteria was: 1. AA batteries. This camera came with great rechargeables. Even in while traveling where I cannot easily recharge I can get replacements at any local store. 2. CompactFlash card. I had already invested in three for previous Kodak DC210 and DC290 cameras, all work great with this Casio camera. 3. I wanted a camera that is ready to shoot another shot in a couple of seconds. This one, even with 200 photos already on the memory card, does it every time. VERY fast timing. The DC290 took great shots but I often had to wait 20 or 30 sceconds between shots. 4. This camera has an external flash jack so I can use my existing studio flash outfit. 5. Photos taken in low light come out spectacular. 6. Canon lens is great and Sony sensor is spot on for colors. 7. Build quality has proven excellent. On the minus side: A. This camera, while still smaller than many, is a little brickish and larger than some may want. B. Flash range is only about 11-12 ft. Often need to take a flash photo then shut flash off and picture usually comes out better if there is ANY light available.

The five Best Shot scenes built into the camera are supplemented by a collection of additional scenes on the bundled CD-ROM, for a total of 100 scenes. Simply select the type of shot you want to record and you are ready to go. You can even store your own setups as Best Shot scenes for instant recall whenever you need them.
