I know that I'm part of the "lagger" demographic, but at this rate, I'll be too old to make "good use" of such a handy (and private) device. The SiPix SC2300 2.1 MP digital camera, however, comes to the rescue since my patience has dropped quicker than the aforementioned price-dilemma. For the money, I was quite surprised when I first connected the SC2300 to my PC. The images were not only very clean, clear, and sufficient in resolution output, but they were also extremely effective when utilizing Photoshop. Okay, there are definite low points, however. First of all, I know this is more of a taste issue, but the physical appearance looks a bit cheesy. I mean, you can totally tell that this is an open-market item with logos tampo-printed on it. Secondly, and more relevant, is that oftentimes the LCD projection is hard to see (depending on the environment). That wouldn't be terribly bad, but using the "peephole" instead produces a slight offset in the final image. Another downfall is the mode selector dial, whose positioning is susceptible to accidental switching (i.e. when putting inside a compact carrier). Even though the camera has an auto-off function, you never want to waste a drop of precious battery juice, especially knowing how quickly they drain with these cams. The software bundle and overall interaction with the PC is acceptable and easy to use... definitely geared towards the amateur. The modes within the SC-2300 are typical, but very effective. The 2X zoom works, but it's not 5X, you know what I mean. Lastly, the camera's speed is not the greatest, but it is really nice to have a digital camera that almosts "acts" like a regular 35mm (e.g. there is a definite 'click' when depressing the shutter, as opposed to the silent shutter which keeps smiling friends goofishly holding their smiles not sure of whether or not they can move again). Overall, I rate the Si-Pix SC2300 FOUR STARS out of five mainly for the price. The features are almost bare minimum and the styling is on the cheap side, but for the inpatient, financially handicapped, graphic designer (or average civilian), you really can't go wrong with the good pics for the great price.
