Toshiba PDR-4300 4MP Digital Camera w/ 2.8x Optical Zoom description
The PDR-4300 merges Toshiba's expertise in digital imaging and portability with a high-resolution imaging sensor and simple control layout that makes this camera easy to use and enjoy. The PDR-4300 boasts a 4-megapixel resolution, a full suite of professional-level manual options for control of light and exposure, and a precise Canon lens that sports a smooth 2.8X optical zoom.

Optics and Resolution
The PDR-4300's 4.0-megapixel CCD image sensor yields a maximum image size of 2400 x 1600, with selectable 1200 x 800 and 720 x 480 resolution modes also available. The camera features an all-glass Canon lens equivalent to a 35-100 mm lens on a 35 mm camera, plus a 2.8x optical and 2.2x digital zoom (total 6x zoom), macro capability up to 6-inches, and a wide F2.9 aperture for improved light gathering.

Storage and Transfer
Images are stored on either Secure Digital (SD) or MultiMedia (MMC) cards; a 16 MB SD memory card is included. Images can be downloaded to either a Mac or PC via USB connectivity, which means it can be connected to any USB-based Windows Me/2000/XP and Mac OS 8.6 or later computer without installing any software.

Movie Mode
The PDR-4300 captures 320 x 240 resolution video clips (with no sound) at 15 fps just as easily as it shoots still images. The size of your memory card determines how large a video file you can capture--up to a maximum of three minutes.

♥♥♥♥♥ Still going!
I actually purchased the PDR-3330 (3.1 MP) back in January 2004. It lasted through college and I continue to use it to this day! I don't know how many times I've dropped it, yet it's continued to work just fine - even after quite a few hits to the lens housing! Just got some crystal clear pictures of the aftereffects of the ice storm yesterday. I continue to be amazed at the quality of some of the pictures I get. The only drawback I notice besides battery life is lots of noise and shadow in low lighting - but this camera makes up for that by how well it performs in ample sunlight. Also, if you're an avid movie-taker this camera may disappoint - frames didn't come out too clearly and it does not have audio capabilities. But I've used the video feature perhaps twice in nearly four years, so it didn't bother me. I would definitely purchase from this Toshiba line again - with a Canon lens, knowledge that I can depend on this camera to hold up for years and the fact that this was my first "real" digital camera, I'm too taken to want anything else for a loooong time :)
