Amazon.com Product Description

Perhaps the most exciting feature of digital cameras is their ability to be miniaturized as the technology progresses. Toward that end, the Kyocera Finecam S3 can now claim (as of June 2001) to be the smallest 3-megapixel zoom camera. About the same size as Canon's immensely popular 2-megapixel digital Elph S100 and S110, the S3 likewise also sports a metallic body yet actually weighs less than the Elph cameras. In addition, it has more manual controls than the Canons (like manual white balance), plus it packs a higher pixel count to go with its 2x optical zoom. The extra megapixel of resolution means the camera churns out images at a whopping resolution of 2,048 x 1,536. Also included is the ability to capture 320 x 240 movies up to 15 seconds long.

The S3 comes complete with everything you'll need including a rechargeable lithium-ion battery and international AC adapter/charger. The high-resolution stills and short movies are stored on either SD or MMC cards, and a 16 MB card is supplied. To transfer images, Kyocera provides a USB card reader, eliminating the hassles associated with built-in USB ports. Also included is the ArcSoft PhotoImpression 3.0 software.

Good Camera with Some Drawbacks.......2004-12-04

I have had one of these camera for two years, now. After carrying it around on a daily (and I do mean daily) basis, and putting about 1,000 shots through it, I still like it.
Several reviews reference the battery life - it's short. This is the number one drawback. Get either an external battery pack or a spare battery. Note: Spare batteries can be found on eBay (sorry Amazon) for under $10 US before shipping.
Most reviews will site the rugged Stainless Steel case. The battery door, alas, is plastic. After the numerous battery changes I have performed, mine has finally broken. I am currently searching for a new door. If you are looking at purchasing a used model, carefully inspect the battery door for signs of stress cracks and fatigue.
While this camera is far from perfect, it is good for something to throw in a bag or a backpack and drag along when you want to take pictures, but do not want to lug around a camera bag.

Worst camera ever?.......2003-09-04

This is a terrible camera currently on my second one as first the camera would not stay on.
With the new one the battery life is measured in minutes. In dark settings its impossible , just takes ages to get a shot. Unacceptable delay in pressing shutter and image been taken. The movie mode is unreliable. I could go on.
What a waste of money
Geoff

Not worth the trouble..........2003-04-29

I bought this camera and loved it at first but after a couple of months it began to have problems. The first problem was that it just stopped charging the battery. I sent it in for service and it now charges but freezes up all of the time, I have sent it in three more times at my expense and the problem has not been corrected. The last time they blamed it on the battery but I have two and even with a fully charged battery the problem persists. I for one will never buy another Kyocera product and would recommend that you consider a different brand also.

Terrible ! Buy a Canon Ixus.......2003-01-14

I have found that in dark clubs and bars it is impossible to get a picture that is not blurred. Should you choose to have a picture any sharper than Normal you will be waiting between 30 secs and 1 and half minutes between taking photos while this thing tries to write to the memory card and the video has no sound. I'm taking mine back as I only bought it because was supposed to be the same as a Canon Ixus but with more megapixels. But as I have to wait over a minute to see my mega pixeled images whats the point !

Value for Money.......2002-08-27

Size is the major advantage of this camera but it has 3 major problems: 1) battery is not powerful enough that it cannot last for a whole day; a spare battery is a MUST; 2) Flash photo is very bad (& drains your already weak battery) making over-exposure unavoidable; 3) Auto focus is slow, particularly in dim environment.

Other than these, this small camera is packed with a lot of useful functions such as ISO adjustment, manual white balance, manual focus, aperature adjustment and the even digital zoom is very good (compared to other digital cameras whose digital zoom are nearly useless given their poor quality).

Finally, in HK, this camera is sold at around US$385, making it one of the cheapest 3m pixel digital cameras in the market.

Product Description

DVG-9000N is a state-of-the-art DVD/CD-DA player. It combines a stylish design and a high functionality with the comfort you need. DVG-9000N plays back DVD/VCD/SVCD/CD/MP3/CD-R/CD-RW and features 5.1-channel DTS, Dolby Digital decoding, optical & coaxial digital audio outputs, component video outputs, standard AV and S-Video signal outputs, and more.

Amazon.com Product Description

Daewoo's DVG-9000N offers convenient features like a karaoke microphone input, VGA monitor output (for computer-screen viewing), and PAL-NTSC switching (compatible with U.S. and non-region-encoded U.K. DVDs) alongside progressive-scan video for use with the latest HD-ready TVs.

Video features
Topping the DVG-9000N's abilities is progressive-scan playback, in which the unit scans one complete frame at a time (instead of rendering alternating sets of odd and even lines), giving you pristine, flicker-free images on a high-definition or HD-ready television.

Audio features
If your receiver does not process Dolby Digital or DTS but nevertheless sports multichannel analog inputs, you're in luck: the DVG-9000N decodes both 5.1-channel surround-sound formats, so you can still enjoy immersive movie and music mixes. You'll need six analog connections between the player and your receiver, for left, center, right, left and right surround, and the ".1" dedicated subwoofer signal.

Connections
You can forgo analog connections altogether, as the player offers a choice of either optical or coaxial digital-audio outputs, since some surround receivers offer only one or the other (if you have a choice, we recommend the coaxial connection, which will give you slightly better sound).

The DVG-9000N's back panel also offers six-channel analog outputs (use only the ones marked "left" and "right" for analog stereo connections), and four video outputs: standard S-video and composite-video outputs and the three-pronged progressive-scan video and VGA outputs mentioned above for full compatibility with all current televisions.

Other features
The DVG-9000N is karaoke-ready with a front-panel .25-inch microphone input--just plug in and sing along with your favorite CDs or special karaoke CDs and DVDs. The unit is compatible with DVD, VCD, SVCD, CD, and MP3-CD-R/CD-RW.

Customer Reviews:

Daewoo - DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT !! - I rate << ZERO >>.......2004-09-17

Even though I bought a DVG-9000N year or so ago I am so disgusted with Daewoo that I am writing this today. I was lured in by the long list of features and rolled the dice. I lost. The unit DIED within a few months. By that time it was out of warranty - a VERY SHORT warranty period - three months or so, I don't recall. I called customer service and after some attitude on the part the rep they were willing to look at the unit for $50.00, plus shipping, plus repair - how nice of them. I decided to not waste any more money with Daewoo so I tossed it out with other household GARBAGE. I will NEVER buy any of their products again. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT !! If it were an option would would rate <<ZERO>> !!!

CD tray does not open.......2003-08-27

I bought this about a year ago, it worked well though I sparingly used it. I created a SVCD with my PC and tried playing it with this player, it got stuck and never ejected out. It does not respond to any command now. I do NOT recommend this product, the design and testing of this product is shoddy.

Broken Down.......2003-06-05

This player seemed like a fine player for the first 8 months. Then it started hesitating to play disks and eventually quit altogther. I opened the case to discover that it was not spinning the disk. I hoped it was just a motor but the problem seems to originate from the circuit board. If you've already bought this player then hopefully it serves you well. If not then consider paying a little extra for a more reliable brand such as JVC, or SHARP which are the two most reliable names in electronics.

failed after 10 months and poor warranty and support.......2003-01-20

I bought this after hearing the wonderful
review about this unit. It failed after
10 months. When I called Deawoo technical support,
she asked me to power-off the unit and turn -ON
after 1/2 hour. I did that, but no luck.
However, after couple of days, it started to work,
but it failed again. I am an electronics engineer, so to me,
it appears that they do not have a reliable product.

In addition, they do not have a good customer/technical support.
They took my name and phone no. and promised me to call
me back and I have not heard from them. It was two
months ago, now my warranty for parts is also going to expire.

Beware! Not All DVG-9000N's Have VGA Output.......2003-01-15

I am trashing the DVG-9000N for one reason: the Daewoo DVG-9000N is advertised as having a VGA output and some of the DVG-9000N's mysteriously don't have the VGA capability. The Owners Manual for the DVG-9000N on Daewoo's own web site describes the DVG-9000N as having a VGA output and shows an HD-15 plug on the back but the DVG-9000N delivered to me did not have VGA out or the HD-15 plug. Daewoo's reps in New Jersey, though they were courteous and friendly and promptly returned my call, had no expanation for this feature deletion. Daewoo really ought to change model numbers or otherwise specify when it takes away a feature from a product so consumers will know what they are getting.
