The image quality of this camera is not excellent, but acceptable. It reminds me of a webcam or early smartphone cameras. Your current smartphone takes better pictures, but this camera's shots will be fine for most things. It mostly falls off in high-contrast shots, where it doesn't have much dynamic range. The images are good enough for my use, e.g. B. to create reports on houses that require multiple images for illustration. And for less than $35, it's pretty amazing what it's capable of. The camera has a self-timer, digital anti-shake, auto ISO and something called "beautiful face" which I believe smudges images. There are also other image effects like black and white, sepia, tint, etc. There are no manual shutter or aperture controls, so this isn't a good device for people who want to learn how to take pictures. It's more about auto exposure shots. By the way, "Flash" is not a flash, but just a weak LED light bulb. It can help with videos, but there's no such thing as a flash, making photos difficult to take in dark places. Also, the "zoom" switch doesn't enlarge anything, it just crops the image in the camera. The construction is pretty good. At first glance it seems cheap and simple. And it's lightweight but feels solid and should stand up to normal use. Two batteries are included (the first is not yet charged). There is no charging, you need to charge in camera. So if one battery is dead and the other is fine, you still can't use the camera when you want to charge the dead battery. Also included is a lanyard and pouch. And just in case you need it, there's a standard tripod connector on the bottom. You must provide an SD card. All in all, for around $30 you get a working camera that takes decent pictures. Think of image quality like a webcam you take with you. If you just want a very cheap camera that does the job, here it is.
