Never in focus 2003-01-07
I know this camera is convenient but the pictures are never sharp. I have used it for a year. I wish I had spent a little more to get a quality 35mm. I plan to replace it with a digital model at greater expense. At least I won't lose the cost of film & developing, approx $15 a roll.
Flash 2002-07-06
I loved the size of the camera, but that has its flaws. A constant problem was red eye. Even with the red eye reduction, it was quite prevalent. I believe, from what I have read, the flash is too close to the lens.
Problems with Lens Cover 2000-08-17
One of the major problems with these tiny APS cameras is simple mechanical reliability. According to the experts at the New York camera store where I bought my Revio, the Canon Elphs are notorious for the frequency of problems with their pop-up flash components. That was, and is, a good reason to consider the Revio, which has the flash fixed in the camera chassis. On the other hand, a few months after I purchased a Revio its lens-cover became stuck half-closed, reducing an entire roll of pictures to a kafka-esque parody. Tiny slivers of the natural bridges national monument are all I have left.

One mechanical failure in one camera is not necessarily worthy of note, but my brother also bought a Revio and had problems with it. In his case, the camera automatically rewound the roll of film after only a few pictures had been taken, leaving him with about six pictures across several rolls of film taken on a vacation in Portugal.

In all other ways I'm extremely pleased with the camera--its image quality and feature set are both terrific. And I know of two others who own this model and have had no problems. Just keep in mind that all of these tiny cameras are prone to mechanical problems--do your research beforehand, but even so you can't count on trouble-free operation.

Excellent but could have certain design enhancements 1999-12-27
The camera, although slightly bigger than the Canon Elph and the Revio Z-2, produces excellent photographs. The features are robust and it delivers a zoom capability that surpasses many in its size and price category. The only drawback I have found is the slightly awkeward placement of the zoom buttons (compared to the Elph). All in all, it is a great buy.
Konica Revio 1999-11-24
In addition to the tiny size, the weight of this camera is small enough to really make it a terrific snapshot camera. The only drawback, which was slight, was the fact that the zoom had a small range if you are used to a zoom camera. The picture quality was amazing for something so tiny it seemed like a toy.
