Not that good

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2006
Review: The picture quality is not that good. In low light condition, it is blurry and grainy. It failed to focus about one third of the time. The shutter is slow. Battery life is not good. I had problem with the camera freezing up between shots and during...

Don't waste your money

Date of Review:  Apr 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would avoid this camera, there are much better products out there for the money. It is not worth the hassle.

Disappointed by Vivitar 8300s

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: I would not recommend the Vivitar 8300s. Fatal flaws include very poor portrait pictures, short battery life, and lousy tech support. The first 8300s we had died within 6 weeks.
Review: The Vivitar 8300s has been a huge disappointment. Our Olympus 5050 takes far better pictures, even with only 5 MP. A friend's Pentax 5MP takes far better pictures, too. The first 8300s we had completely shut down after six weeks (including one two...
