Rollei Compactline 52 Digital Camera (5 megapixel, 8x digital zoom, 6.1 cm (2.4 inch) display) (Electronics)

Customer Review

One first: The camera was bought as "hacking" material, so with the intent to kill them as soon as possible / unzubauen. But she is well suited. Only when Lightning Capacitor have to be careful: 300V and estimated 5Joule can be fatal.

Here the look inside: View on "Instructables" the article "Time lapse add-on to a Rollei digital camera".

The detailed points: Expertly-made cheap clippers. Design passable - most 12MP snapping the disc Outer look worse. All functions are intuitive to use, only the "Macro" setting on the side is fiddly and the display will show a rather small warning that the camera is switched to Macro. If you forget this, the camera takes the next use initially blurred images.

The build quality is quite good in view - only in accordance with the materials just the price. The hunger for energy of the camera has to answer especially the flash. Train up per se, the disable always immediately do the batteries last much longer. Alternatively, you can in many projects also equal to shut down the flash continuously when you open the camera anyway.

Conclusion: good craft materials at the level of a mobile camera (each BlackBerry makes better pictures). The image quality matches the price. Good: Tripod socket and actually anti-shake function, and optical macro. Not so hot: The image quality (in absolute terms) and the battery consumption.

As children camera conditionally suitable, since the case is not particularly robust - but the lens is protected against dirt and scratches with a plastic disc and means of tripod mount can turn tinker a larger grip. Easy does it, however, with "Sugru" - can also be found on Instructables.

Note: it attributed to these plastic Klops from China "Rollei" is brash - but it went so many brands: Grundig, Agfa, Dual ... once sounded-like name that stood for quality, today little decals on the cheap plastic.
