EX-Z1000
2008-07-30This was a fine camera, purchased by my daughter and her husband for my birthday. I absentmindedly left it at an ATM in Prague, and it was gone when I returned to try to recover it a few minutes later. I recently purchased the identical camera through Amazon, partly because I was happy with it the first time, but especially to show the kids that their gift was not unappreciated. Now that I am becoming more familiar with its many great features and functions, I'm appreciating it even more. It's small and lightweight, easy to carry, and yet takes terrific pictures in varied lighting conditions both indoors and outside, as long as the user takes the time to learn the easy-to-use settings provided. The rechargeable battery lasts much longer than the non-rechargeable dry cell batteries I used to use in my Olympus camera. The EX-Z1000 was sent to me at reduced price in an opened box, but in excellent condition, and I am very pleased with the value I got for my money.

Small compact with great picture quality
2007-10-04Bought this camera for my daughter. My sister had a Casio but the 5 mp and the 10mp is truly a better quality picture. My daughter carrys it with you at all times. The picture quality and zoom is great. The only quality we do not like is when you snap the picture there is a delay before the flash leaving you with a different picture then anticipated.

Great Shots
2007-07-29I have had this camera for about 7 months. Pictures taken during the day are beautiful and the colors are vibrant. At nights the pictures are not very clear.

Nice find for the price
2007-07-19This is a great camera for the price. I was looking to upgrade from a 4mp camera and was a bit worried because the price was so low. I use the camera for fun so I wasn't too concerned about all the extras. This one has alot of nice extras and it' really easy to use.

I like it
2007-07-18At first when I got the camera in the mail I was dissapointed when i first started using it, because the shutter speed is slower than my old camera when it is on the basic setting. My first pictures that I took with it were really blurry and I almost returned the camera. However now I have gotten used to the camera and take the most amazing pictures with it!!

Driving with a cell phone is a lot less dangerous than driving on prescription drugs
There's a lot of debate today about the safety of using cell phones while driving. Statistics show that those who use cell phones while driving cause a much greater percentage of accidents than those who avoid using their cell phones. And the studies have shown that it's not just the physical coordination required to punch numbers into the cell phone while you're trying to work the vehicle that causes accidents; it's actually the lack of attention resulting from driving and talking on the cell phone at the same time. It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents.
In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
