My new Praktica DCZ 1.3S Digicam
 

I purchased a Praktica DCZ 1.3S mini Digicam from Tesco the other day, it cost £100 if you spent more that £50 on shopping.

I was wondering if anyone else has one of the cameras and if so what their opinions of it are?

For everybody's reference here's the specs:

1.3 Megapixel
1.5" LCD(no viewfinder)
Flash, w/redeye reduction
8MB internal Storage, expandable though either SD or MMC cards
USB and composite video outputs
Power is from 2AA batteries

I don't want to upset you, but, for instance, from http://www.sherwoods-photo.com/prakt...tica_dcz13.htm

"The Praktica DCZ1.3S is the very latest in entry-level digital cameras" and they're selling it for £85 without having to spend money on shopping at Tescos either.

As to the spec, it's ok for a basic entry level model, but for only another £24 you could have got, for instance a Fuji Finepix A202 http://www.sherwoods-photo.com/fuji_...fxa202_fs.html which is 2MP, can work as a webcam, take 20 seconds of video and has a viewfinder (LCD screens eat batteries).

Sorry if this is a bit of a downer...

Hey Jon - do you shop with bid-up.tv or the auction channel ?. They've got some quality tat on there worth thousands of pounds and you can bid from just a pound :rofl:

Take the camera back and listen to Graham :)
