eh.......2006-11-10

I got some really good use out of this camera, I will treasure many of the beautiful pictures. However, I would not go with it again. While it provides some nice options and I love tiny design, it was often difficult to focus and the menu, while intuitive and simple, took time to adjust. Even with the case sold by minolta specifically for this camera, it did not handle bumps well at all. In addition, it takes too long to store a shot and let you take another one.
While my outdoor pictures were often stunning, indoors was a real problem. The flash is very strong and casts severe shadows, and I think the color is unauthentic as well. Sometimes you can do ok without the flash, but often the color is unauthentic anyway and often dark.
I caught on to the focusing system easily, but it became a problem when I wanted to be in a picture and have someone else shoot it. Almost never had good results. Also, forget about low light conditions-- even though the flash compensates perfectly, the lens doesn't focus and your pictures will be uselessly blurry.
Bottom line: Not reccomended. I'm sorry I let myself get talked into getting a more expensive (at the time) camera when I probably would have been equally satisfied with a cheaper camera and fewer options.

Not usable in dark places!.......2006-11-03

The camera is easy to handle and therefore for people who just wanna make pictures. The camera needs some seconds to focus the object which makes snapshot almost impossible. It is really convenient because of its size and the inbuild lences. The camera is really good for daylight use, but if it gets darker outside or even inside you can not use the camera at all. The flash, needed to focus on something, is to weak.

Do not buy this camera.......2006-06-28

I have had this camera for over a year. I bought it because I read some reviews (from people who obveously hadn't used the camera for a long time) that said the shutter lag was great. I also liked its size. I knew the video was not going to have sound, so while inconvenient, it was not anything unexpected. I also loved the fact it took AA batteries.

However, this camera has ZERO durrability. The door that holds in the batteries broke in week 1 after the warrenty ended. Minolta will not replace it. It is a cheep peice of plastic, and they will not replace it unless I pay for repairs that cost more than the camera did when I bought it,

Also, and this was a big one for me, if you are in any lighting condition less than 'bright' you can forget about getting an in-focus shot. This thing can not take low light pictures.

Also, the ergonomics of this thing is all off. It was particularly bad because I am left-handed, but even for my right handed family members, it takes some getting used to NOT to hold this thing with 2 hands, and NOT having your shutter-finger get in the way of the lense.

Avoid this camera. Make sure to go to your local retail store and TEST your cameras before you buy them. Test them for shutter lag, batter door design, and low light conditions (put your hand over the lense, or bring sun-glasses).

Save your money.......2005-12-18

I was hoping that when I pay a good amount of money for a product from a well known company which has a reputation in photgraphy, i'll get a camera that can take pictures. With the x31 that is hardly the case since the camera doesn't know how to focus. If you plan on taking pictures anywhere other than under glaring lights or the midday sun, buy another camera because the camera will just get confused and give you that little red dot telling you it can't focus.

Worst camera ever.......2005-03-16

I have a Dimage Xt as does about 5 other people I know. We all love them. So, I recommended the X31 to a friend. That was the biggest mistake I have ever made.

The X31 is a piece of trash. It is unable to take focussed pictures inside a dimly lit bar. My Xt had no problems taking pictures in the same situation.

If you want a camera that takes pictures in focus, you should avoid the X31.

Good product.......2004-05-01

I bought mine wireless wl400-rap for countem $30.00 brand new.
What did you buy yours for ha ha ha.

Good value for money........2002-08-19

I bought this with the wireless PC card and USB wireless , all by Bestdata. Was a little skeptic since it was no name brand but the price was so good that I decided to go for it. Installation was a breeze no effort at all.I have enabled WEP encryption and use other cool features like MAC Access control settings and works perfectly. The packaging was realy shoddy and I was very discouraged but guess thats how they are saving money, also for some reason once in a while the router needs a reboot, I suspect it is not able to refresh the Dynamic IP from my ISP. Apart from this never had a problem.
Can't beat the price, its terrific.

Obviously Amazon thinks that it's customers can read but not do math! This is the most inane offer yet!!!

Two single packs CHEAPER than One double?????.......2005-02-16

I cannot believe they WILL NOT change the price. 2 single packs are cheaper than 1 double pack. I HAVE TOLD THEM several times that www.staples.com has it for $60.99 and www.officemax.com has it for $59.99 and with a $50.00 order-free shipping too.
When they can meet or beat this price, I'll buy from them-amazon.com. If I run out before, I'll go elsewhere.

2-pack costs slightly more, but shipping is free.......2004-07-25

The 2-pack is currently $1.84 more than buying 2 cartridges separately, but free shipping is offered only on the 2-pack.

I am satisfied with the ink quality, but the cartridge seems to run out quickly, hence the 4 out of 5 stars.

Product Description

With CTGOs hot line of auto server switches, you can use a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse to control up to sixteen CPUs. Save yourself the expense of buying and maintaining multiple sets of I/O and video equipment, as well as saving critical space in your network operation center. Standard off-the-shelf cables are all you need to complete the connections, eliminating the need for expensive custom cables that inflate the solution cost. Each device is a dependable solution that emulates the keyboard and mouse connections back to the CPU. This allows for seamless boot-up, even while the switch is connecting the keyboard and mouse to another PC. This critical feature, not present in manual switches, prevents CPU lock-up. Should a reboot be necessary on a CPU not currently connected to the keyboard/mouse via the switch, the emulation allows seamless reboot following an unplanned shutdown. Both the eight and sixteen port versions come with an advanced on-screen status display, which also lets you name the individual users.

Customer Reviews:

Best Premium Quality P/S Camera Available.......2004-11-18

The Contax T3 still remains the best P/S (point and shoot) 35mm camera in its class, offering more features and better quality than current and former rivals from Leica, Nikon and Ricoh. It is a stylish camera with a titanium exterior that reminds me of classic 35mm cameras dating from the 1930's and 1940's. Without question, it is a better camera than my Yashica T4 Super, since its Carl Zeiss 38mm f2.8 T* Sonnar is a sharper, more contrasty optic than the Yashica's Carl Zeiss 35mm f3.5 T* Tessar. I have compared photos taken with this camera with those from Leica's compact cameras, and still this camera wins with regards to contrast and resolution. Anyone interested in a premium quality compact 35mm camera should regard the Contax T3 as the ideal choice.

Customer Reviews:

A tiny treat!.......2006-11-16

I wanted a nice small pair of binoculars I could toss in my bag (or pocket) and take anywhere and these more than fill that function. But I bought it elsewhere and spent $5.00 more on them and $2.00 more than Amazon charges for shipping, oh woe!

But these are tiny and delightful! I don't feel any click stop anything for focusing. Just turn the smoothly adjusting eyepieces and get a sharp view. Both sides adjust fully so you can set them perfectly. They are not very bright but you can't expect that from 16 / 6 = 2.6666666666666666666666666666667 call it 3 when for bright you want a 5.

These seem very nice and sharp to me and they are fraction of my 7 x 35s in size. I think I could fit 4 or 5 of them into my 7 x 35's case. For astronomy the 7 x 35s, for everything else, these are magnificent IMHO.

I've read all over where people say that the frequency of use is inverse to the size and difficulty of setting up or carrying around the optics, be they telescopes or binoculars. These are super easy to carry along and use, so I'm sure they will be used the most of any of the binoculars and telescope I own.

The construction seems to be all metal and rubber about the grips and fold down eyecups. The glass seems to be fully coated with a blue cast, beats me what that is.

Would I do it again? In a flat second. I love them and I'll bet my wife will love them too!
