Sorry but £8 overpriced in my opinion.0

Agree with Jefft.0

GrabItNow always hugely inflate the RRP on their goods. Sometimes these are great offers, other times not so good. These cameras typically sell for £5-8 on market stalls and eBay, they're fine for silly snaps or party gifts, but frankly you'd probably get better pictures with your mobile.

I have to agree. I had one almost identical. I wouldn't pay £1. poor pictures as fixed focus and low res . Photos stored on internal memory and if AAA battery goes flat or taken out you loose the pictures. The memory was powered by the battery even when switched off and therefore went flat very quickly.0 -
What are they? 3 Pixel?Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0

another thing to consider is, if you google this camera & read most of the reviews written you will notice that 9 times out of 10 it appears to be sent without the drivers(installation CD) which would render it unloadable I'd imagine. Better luck for tomorrows offer;)
best freebies to date:
- 1 mountain bike
- 1 nokia n95
- micro hifi
- 2 tickets to Red Bull Air Race on the Thames
- 2 tickets @ the o2 lounge
- Thorntons easter egg

Hmm .. well the review says the quality is 1MP, the software issue shouldn't be too much of a problem, they're usually for older OSs like Win98. WinXP and up (well hopefully anyways) should be able to read from it just fine.0

Sorry every one I was not recommending it as a decent camera just thought it may appeal to some hence the line.. "not for me"0

Change the title in the first post from "Decent" to "Rubbish" and it'd be more accurate.
These sort of cheap rubbish cameras have been around for years, should all be in poundshops now.0 -
Anyone want a "Pencam"? PS be fair to grabbit-theve got to recoup some money for all the free batteries theve just given away0
