Now this video is as old as the camera was when this video was uploaded. How time flies.

[@TokyozzFinest]

I feel bad for people who think they need 20+ megapixels to look at their pictures on the computer. Digital photographs were meant to be printed. If that's not the case, 3.1 megapixels is perfect for web use. What's important is the glass.

[@Ahluhzay]

Just bought one! Super excited to use. These will be coming back for a new trend😳

How to switch on

[@samlai5411]

Thanks for the memories! My parents had this camera in 2003. I used to always switch the camera on with the lens cap on, and watch it fly off every time. It would always get my dad angry. Anyway, it didnt cause any issues with the camera. It was eventually replaced by a Canon 700D.

[@sirwilliams649]

I just found this camera too in my old drawer but sadly it won’t switch on and I have no idea why :(

How to switch on

[@clemstevenson]

FYI 2 gigabyte SD cards certainly didn't exist at any point in 2002. 2 GB was a FAT 16 limit for older cameras. I have an old digital camera that I'd bought in 2004, and that camera cannot handle SD cards larger than 2 GB. They had just upped the limit to 2 GB at that time. My 2002 digital camera was supplied with an 8 MB type 1 CF card, but it takes a 1 GB type 1 CF card. However, that camera cannot format more than about 400 MB, because there was nothing that big in those days.

[@lorddevonshire3279]

Can't remember exactly what the price was but this was my first digital camera, purchased on clearance at a Target outside Atlanta. I just found it in my pile of old electronic stuff. Still works. I put it in my camera bag and intend to use it again just for fun. It always took acceptable quality pics.

hi please do a video of your digital camera collection i would love it

[@BlacvultureTravels]

Me,too!

[@MrJ0mmy]

Art By Jac yes

[@MrJ0mmy]

hey you should do a video on all the digital cameras in your collection it would be really cool to see what you have in your collection

[@Mentorcase]

I still have one of these, still works perfectly, used to take it in my backpack when riding and now it is retired having a nice rest in a cupboard.

[@thedebug3866]

I took a look at the picture, and holy crap! That is quite the crystal clear picture. Nice quality, too.

[@vwestlife]

So far alkaline AAs have lasted pretty well in it. I just got a Kodak 4 x AA NiMH batteries & charger kit for $4.99 on eBay (leftover "new" stock, and cheaper than the Chinese knockoffs!) which will be the ideal way to power it.

[@taralove8830]

thank you bro

[@krist0sh]

In 2003, our Canon camera came with a 16MB SD card, but my dad quickly knew we had to get something bigger, so he ordered a 256MB card. Some years later, we got a 512MB card for it.

[@Lukeno52]

Back when 3 MP was epic.

[@WowplayerMe]

I have a slightly upgraded model of this camera called the Kodak DX4350, I got it some time in 2004 I believe (but, it coulda been 2005.) It's a great camera & I'm still using it in 2020 with no problems whatsoever. I still love it & the image quality is perfect.

[@sirwilliams649]

[@breezie1337]

I still have an Olympus C-820L digital camera laying around. 0.81MP, SmartMedia card and manufactured in 97-98 :)

[@kloakovalimonada]

My first digital camera :)

[@oledcrt]

I'm pretty sure that's a MMC, not an SD card. MMCs are basically the same as an SD card except they don't have the little lock thing that makes them "secure".

[@cata_s2020]

i still have and use it even today a Kodak EasyShare cx7530 I bout it new back in the day for about $200 works like new even today , takes great pics!

[@Mikeywil0003]

i used to have a 32mb SD card, i bought a panasonic miniDV camcorder in 01 or 02, which it was one of the first ones that could also take still pictures and save to SD card instead of tape.

[@XodiumLabs]

My Canon SD1100IS (circa 2008) came with a 32MB card, amazingly.

[@vwestlife]

SDXC wasn't invented until 2009.

[@matthewp8859]

i have a 16mb SD card

[@albear972]

You win a cookie for being so awesome!

[@SuperVictor64]

It looks so nostalgic tbh, I would use that camera to make ultra old youtube videos that gives a nostalgic vibe. Where can I get this camera?

[@vwestlife]

Try eBay.

[@SuperVictor64]

@@vwestlife I got one today but however when I replace the camera’s battery to new batteries and turn it on, it powered off by itself Is it the camera or the batteries?

[@megabojan1993]

I still keep my 16MB card that came with my camera. But my camera was bought in 2006 and the card was able to store just 4-5 highest quality images. Now how pathetic is that :)

[@Metrofin1]

I've ditched all my cameras and now use this camera for snapshots.It has all the basic needs.Completely automatic (but you can alter marginally the EV figure).The photos under all conditions are very good.Buy the DX4530 .It is the same but 5mp.

[@MrJ0mmy]

i love old outdated electronics man i must go to bed i think ive watched just about all your videos im so very tired

[@DvdXploitr]

"64KB productions presents...."...OMG, i thought I was on a CassetteMastesr video for a minute there LOL.....j/k, I enjoyed the video though :)....digital cameras have come a LONG LONG way since 2002.....

[@FOHFILMS]

the microwaving microphones has something to do with weasel2htm, right?

[@Lachlant1984]

That camera has a very aggressive AGC for the audio recording, unless you applied some post production limiting to the audio. A relic from the days when consumer electronics were still using easy to find batteries that could be replaced, well, it was coming to the end of that era. I wonder how the camera presents itself to the computer and whether you'd need any special drivers to use it in USB mode, or whether it adopts whatever standards digital cameras use.

[@specialfxmaker]

the picture quality is actually pretty good.

[@jamesraya79]

the Camera Sceen look like it's 1990s to Me.

[@wilkes85]

The video quality leaves much to be desired (compared to your main camcorder, anyway), but the photo quality is fantastic! I like that it takes AA batteries too. The focus and zoom can't be adjusted on my camera while recording a video either, that's kind of a pain sometimes. It's great how your thrift store put the price tag on the strap! Mine just slaps a sticker on everything, and they're hard to remove. Also, you should really do a demo of that 8 track to cassette adapter!

[@assacarnes.]

the lens cap flying off when you turned the camera on lol

[@wgrantha4438]

How were you able to get the video clip mode to be full screen? I have the same camera and it is skewed to the left.

[@Heart_ken01]

I'm a bit late lmao but I'm still gonna cop one

[@NJRoadfan]

I still use my circa 2001 3.1MP Olympus Camedia C3040Z 32MB SmartMedia card. I paid $700 for it, so I got my money's worth! Unlike the Kodak, the controls are more traditional (shutter speed, aperture, macro, etc.) It does support zoom in video mode by digitally zooming (yuck), and saves in Quicktime format. It was one of the first cameras to support writing JPEG EXIF metadata and USB storage class when directly connected to a computer.

[@djlau1]

is the sony camera what u used for this review a mini dv?

[@LightTheUnicorn]

I have a 16MB card floating around here somewhere, and my Fujifilm camera does the same thing with the lens cap, good fun xD

[@airingcupboard]

I had an earlier version of this camera with a compact flash card (I think it came with a card that was 16mb - small even then!). It was a fun camera for the time, but the battery life was absolutely appalling. I have to say, it put me off buying another Kodak.

[@ObligedTester]

Off topic, what reciever do you hook up this tuner to? Or do you just use some “active” speakers?

[@vwestlife]

I have it connected to my 1986 Sanyo stereo system.

[@Lukeno52]

Apparently there were 1 MB SD cards, although I don't know if they were full size or not (I doubt they were).

[@EastAngliaUK]

Wonder how this compares to today's smart phones like the Galaxy S2? I think the cam may be better for using if using a zoom?

[@8TrackKid]

128MB SD Cards Aren't The Lowest. I Still Have My Very First SD Card I Would Say About 2003 And It's a 64MB SD Card, My Mema at the Time Her PDA Had 16MB and I've Seen Them as Low as 8MB. Wow Reminds of Some of the First MP3 Player 16MB or 32MB Some as Low as 8MB Kinda Hard to Think By Today Standards That We Had Thinks With That Low of Storage. Peace.

[@TheTechyLuke]

"Microphones" - "Do Not Microwave!" Totally get it ;-)

[@maiixyuuki]

Is it only limited to 1GB SD card for this specific camera?

[@vickynat7232]

I have the same one but every time I press okay it turns off. Fresh batteries and all

[@TechandMiscReview]

I once had a 64mb SD card of the same brand as that 128mb card, got rid of it awhile ago for a 2gb card.

[@jhenesisbautista2742]

Does anyone know what usb connector it needs? I got one from the thrift but it didn’t come with the chord.

[@skypedog221]

I have that exact same camera, believe it or not! In mine, I actually have a 2GB SD card in it. I'll post a video response to this video when I make something interesting on mine.

[@vwestlife]

You don't have to capitalize the first letter of every word!

[@mr.shadowman6618]

Tried different rechargeable NiMH batteries with this camera, it doesn't work. Could be my unit, but works fine with regular Alkalines...

[@TeamGeist06]

2:38 I have an sd card that's 16mb that came with a nikon coolpix camera from around the same time period, it even has a small protective case. That's the lowest one I've seen , maybe there are 8mb and 4mb sd cards.

[@NeerajNRJ11]

i got one yesterday lol

[@Rosalin997]

I bought one at the thrift store and I bought everything for it and it didn’t turn on 💔💔💔💔

[@6984211]

i wish i had that camera

[@Lukeno52]

Also, I'm pretty sure I've seen 32 or 64 MB SD cards myself.

[@julietcalderon5194]

what sd card do i get for this

[@Lachlant1984]

I'll have to look at the Wikipedia article. I've not seen such do not microwave warnings, are you talking about something in this and other videos vwestlife or others have uploaded? I should say I'm legally blind, so visual things like that may escape me.

[@fungo6631]

I've seen a 64 MB microSD card.

[@lbrown21494]

My first digital camera came with a 64 in as card

[@CommanderMouse72]

Just got myself a 2001 easyshare dx3215 at a thrift store, 1.3mp and does nicer macro photos than my phones 20mp sensor

[@vwestlife]

I don't have a 2 GB card.

[@weasel2htm]

I get it too, all too well!

[@MarcoZ1ITA1]

"Do not microwave!" Are you Jon Paula?

[@EastAngliaUK]

Though I bet todays smart phones do better video as I am really happy with my S2.

[@SmitaVegda]

Hey thank you so much .. Its very useful video.. Good time.

[@SmitaVegda]

And you know I bought it in only $3.. Is it good deal....

[@jukpulfer]

Why should'nt i microwave microphones?

[@MrEthan043]

I've seen an 8MB SD card before.

[@ismayosolo6316]

I have that cam

[@chie28_07]

I'm born in 2002

[@ImmaFiringNoLazors]

I have a 32MB SD card that came free with a HP photosmart 945! xD

[@Lachlant1984]

You've been watching too many Uxwbill videos.

[@XMguy]

I've actually had 32 MB SD / MMC and CF cards before. lol

[@alexisbudnick]

show how to record a video on this camera please.

[@vwestlife]

+Alexis B You wouldn't want to. The quality is very bad.

[@alexisbudnick]

+vwestlife are you sure? i thought maybe it might be the lighting. I don't like how you have to hold the shutter while recording. is there a way to change it?

[@michigander1998]

somewhere I have a 16 mb one...

[@djlau1]

i trash picked i kodak digtal camera today it may b from the same time it a 3.1 megapixel to 4 months ago i trash picked the same kodak as today but its a 2 megspixel i trash picked the on the exact same spot :)

[@SebisRandomTech]

I have a 16 MB XD card!

[@krist0sh]

Yes, it's very pathetic. Saw a misspell, our camera came with a CF card, not a SD.

[@8TrackKid]

oh, sorry, i just do that a lot of the time

[@minhnhatvttt]

Ok

[@Lachlant1984]

I see, I've only ever heard uxwbill use that word, that's what made me want to say what I said.

[@sargetech]

GTFOH!!! I paid over 200 bolskies for the thing with the docking station! Nice post, brings me back!!
