Agfa ePhoto 1280 Digital Camera

Pros: Digital is where it's at...down with developing film!
Cons: Eats...no, GULPS batteries

As with most electronic devices, digital cameras will continue to come out with newer and greater models. There are higher pixel cameras on the market that have more memory, but for the price this camera does an excellent job.

Accompanied...

Pros: Easy to use, economical!
Cons: East batteries! On-off switch too easy to maneuver.

I enjoyed this as a first digital camera. Anyone who decides to buy this one needs to also get a FlashPath disk so that your computer can read the mini-photo-disk used by the camera. Or get one of those USB mini-disk readers. You will also need a...

Pros: Very simple controls and a wide range of features
Cons: Pics can sometimes be a bit yellowish

This is my second digital camera. I first purchased an Olympus D-220 and was very pleased with it. However, as prices came down and resolution went up, I decided it was time for a higher resolution camera.

After intensive research, I purchased...

Pros: Great picture quality, swivel lens, many options
Cons: Can only hold so many options, the software is lacking in options

I have wanted a digital camera for a very long time, and after looking for a very long time, I came to the conclusion that this one was the best I could get. They were selling the Agfa ePhoto 1280 at Costco Online for much cheaper than other cameras of...

Pros: Inexpensive compared to some
Cons: Poor picture quality

Not since the fun and anticipation of getting my grade school pictures taken have I had such a camera revelation. If I had spent a little more time education myself about the Agfa ePhoto 1280 prior to purchasing it I think I might have been money ahead....

Pros: clear, srisp picture, durable camera, good desing, nice features
Cons: a little expensive, but it's worth it

In all, this is an excellent camera. The features and picture quality far outweigh the speed, which I see as the camera's only real shortcoming. Agfa even includes a charger and a set of NiMh batteries with the camera. I bought this camera for $330...

Pros: Price, Over all Performance, Zoom Feature
Cons: Low light photography, blinding flash

The Agfa 1280 is the perfect camera for the beginner or the professional. As a matter of fact, a Doctor who was s-o-o-o pleased with the quality of Agfa Medical Imaging, recommend the 1280 to me. He was so enthused about his 1280, that he couldn't...

Pros: Clear pics
Cons: That little on/off switch sucks

After struggling for years to use up that last two or three shots on the roll of film I discovered the digital camera world while visiting my cousin in Hawaii. She has some old clunker that probably costs a fortune but she needs it in her work as a...

Pros: Comes with software, good price, excellent pictures.
Cons: I haven't discovered any!

Working in the camera business, both in sales and also a photographer, I would have to give the Agfa 1280, 2 thumbs up! Not only is the resolution the highest for the money, it is the most user friendly camera you will find on the market today....

Pros: simplicity
Cons: poor image quality, flash that thinks it's "intelligent," awkward to handle.

Fortunately, I was able to borrow this camera from a friend before I made a decision about purchasing it. I didn't want this model after using it.

On the positive side, the camera is fairly simple to operate. In fact, if you are at all...

Pros: No Extras to Buy, Very Flexible, High Quality Images, Good Software
Cons: No Optical Viewfinder, No Carry Case

I purchased an Agfa Ephoto 1280 about one year ago and have to say I have been quite impressed, enough so that I have taken in excess of 3,200 pictures with this camera and have almost shelved my normal 35mm cameras(including my good old slr).

...

Pros: Image quality, price, video link
Cons: Case design, included software

As a beta tester of digital cameras at Agfa, I found the 1280 to be the best in their low-price range. The agfa e-photo 1280 is an excellent machine, but it has a few shortcomings.

The first positive thing that struck me about this camera was...

Pros: Agfa quality in a small box, great for table top and tests
Cons: Memory too small, slow charge between shots.

Good easy to use point and shoot camera.

The resolution was fine to print a better than ok 8 x 10. Much better than what is needed for web work.

It can be tethered to a computer and the images immediately stored into the hard...

Pros: battery life, download speed
Cons: image size and quality

I actually bought mine when it was still Agfa's number two camera and at that time is price point for quality was hard to match, much less beat. But these days I am starting to question the camera's useful life. By alot of standards it is still quite an...

Pros: Simple, Flexable, Reliable
Cons: Slow, high battery consumption rate.

When I purchased my 1280 nearly two years ago, it was going for around $800.00. I purchased it on the basis of considerable research which indicated that it would easily produce high quality images in the hands of a fool, yet it has features which will...
