With most VGA digital cameras, you didn't get to see what the photo looked like until you uploaded the pictures to your PC. Now comes an inexpensive model that will let you see the images after you take them.
The Hartford Computer Group announced its Argus DC 1730 (click to view picture), a VGA digital camera that includes a color LCD screen and an automatic flash, will be available in April for $44.99.
The DC 1730 also has 8M bytes of internal memory (stores about 117 photos), and bundled photo software from ArcSoft. For more details, go to the Argus Camera Web site.

Posted by: morcheeba on April 26, 2004 10:09 PMI bought one of these and it turns out that it is not compatible with a Mac. Nowhere in the specs or the literature does it say that this is so. It uses the term PC as a generic term. If it is not possible to launch in iPhoto, this should be stated clearly. I trust that Walmart will take my camera back, but I am very disappointed!

Posted by: kenneth on May 10, 2004 08:02 PMi bought this camera a few weeks ago and i really like it! (Well, I like the price and quality) I got one for 35 dollars for some reason at a walmart near where I was on vacation, and it suits me perfectly. THe only thing I don't like about it is the flash is hard to use
