Product Description

MODEL- A830BK VENDOR- GENERAL ELECTRIC

FEATURES- A Series Digital Camera- Black finish
You'd see the value in this eight-megapixel camera even without the
GE monogram on it.
An entry-level camera that would be impressive at any price -- A 3X
optical zoom and a 5.1X digital zoom, a high-performance 2.5-inch
LCD screen, 8 megapixels, and a simple, intuitive user interface.
Powered by two AA batteries.
When you look at everything that the GE A830 can do, you'll be
impressed. But when you compare its price against those of similar
cameras, you'll be amazed.
We've loaded this sleek and powerful point-and-shoot camera with the
features amateur photographers want most. Like a simple, intuitive
user interface to reduce the user's learning curve. A 3X optical
zoom and a 5.1X digital zoom for capturing every detail. And a
high-performance 2.5-inch LCD screen that's easy to see.
The A830 provides great extras such as in-camera panoramic
stitching, red-eye removal, face-tracking, electronic stabilization
and MPEG-4 movie recording. Plus its memory is expandable up to 4
gigabytes using its SD/SDHC memory slot.
Ounce for ounce, you won't find a better value in an 8-megapixel
camera. And that's why the A830 is one of the first cameras worthy
of the GE name.
Includes Camera, (2) AA Alkaline batteries, USB cable, AV cable, Wrist
strap, CD-ROM, Manual and Quick start guide.

Reviewed on 2008-07-16 All around cheap I bought this camera about 3 months ago. The whole time I have had it, I've been frustrated with the quality of the picture. It has some great features on it for sure, but the optics are horrible. I can't take any shot indoors without a flash, no matter what time of day it is, and how sunny the room is. I think the problem is that it doesn't get to a wide enough aperture (especially zoomed in). I tried manually setting the ISO to 400, but it didn't help, and the pictures came out noisier than Hillary Clinton. Bottom Line, if I wanted another cheap camera, I would go with maybe a 5MP camera made by Canon or HP. I think that I would find that the pictures would actually come out better. (not an overstatement)

Reviewed on 2008-07-06 awesome I researched a lot of cameras in search of a good one. I saw this one and this camera is a great deal. I think it lives up to its 4-5 star rating. Its sleek. Holds up well to drops. The only thing i don't like is that the battery chamber is a little loose and the batteries fall out in my pocket if I'm moving around a lot. It has great zoom and easy to use functions. I would also suggest getting a battery charger, batteries wear out quick as with any camera!

Reviewed on 2008-05-19 Disappointed in Purchase I heard great reviews about this camera but my experience was not good. After I read the instructions and turned on the camera the shutter only opened part way. Then when I took a video there was no sound. Then when my husband started taking pictures there where lines in every shot. Mine may have been a lemon in a good lot but I sent it packing and I am going to do more research for an affordable compact camera!

Reviewed on 2008-04-27 The Grand Review I would recommend this camera to anybody who loves to take pictures, it shows such great detail to were it makes anything you shoot comes to life. The only downfall is that I do recommend buying rechargeable batteries but come on don't get upset for it is worth the price for if you think about it nothing is to good to be true I am not trying to get all sales pitch here because that is not me I am just an everyday Joe I just like this camera it is my first to own digital camera but not my first time using one and believe me I am a stickler when it comes to spending my money. But just to be on the safe side get the rechargeable batteries so you do not miss a beat come to think of it if you look at the other digital cameras out there even the Sony cybershot you need AA also, I bet you they don't last long either. That does end my review and sorry I don't have a pic to share with you, To me it is a better experience in person. So yes I would say yeah if you are thinking about it yes I would buy this camera again if I was looking.

Reviewed on 2008-03-08 Nice, but no optical viewfinder I bought the camera and used it to take a few photos in the house. It is easy to use and has many features for such a low-priced camera. When I took it outside to take a photo of my snow-covered house, I found a problem. It does not have an old-fashioned look-through viewfinder. The digital viewfinder screen is large and easy to see in the house, but not bright enough out in the sun. Therefore it was difficult to frame my image. I am taking it back to where I bought it (for $99.58 + tax). My 5-year+ old Canon Powershot Elph has far fewer features and a much smaller digital viewfinder, but I will buy some new batteries and use it for a while.
