Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of GE A730 7MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Silver)
Customer Review: Unbeatable "Point and Shoot" camera
Summary: 5 Stars
For its price range this is an amazing camera! The pix are sharp and can be cropped for close-ups without noticable pixel loss.
My sister has this camera and my husband fell in love with it. He was especially delighted with the short movies we could make. The SD card can be up to 1GB which has room for over 400 photos. We took several movies and many pix at our last get-together and had loads of room left on the card.
We don't use a movie camera often enough to justify the purchase and didn't want a camera that required fiddling with adjustments. There's an "auto" choice here that has worked well for us. You also can take a seamed picture that produces a pan-like image. And there's a setting for fireworks that gives you a breathtakingly beautiful picture.
A hookup is included that allows you to view your pix on TV. We have the Wii game system and a widescreen TV. We were amazed at how professional our shots were when viewed that way. We Ooh-ed and Ahh-ed a lot!
I got the camera for my husband for Father's Day, but took it on a trip before that day arrived. It comes in pink and I would have gotten that. But he would Never have believed the Father's Day part!
It doesn't have a viewfinder but that wasn't a problem for us as we use the screen anyway. A CD came with it in case you don't have a photo editor program. There was, of course, a USB cord.
We've had several digital cameras that took pix of lesser pixels and lesser quality. I highly recommend the GE A730 for anyone wanting a convenient, lightweight camera for around $100 that gives superior results.

The camera boasts an ultra-sharp 7-megapixel resolution, along with a 3x optical zoom and a 4.5x digital zoom. As a result, it's a breeze to capture superior close-ups that look great whether displayed on a computer screen or printed out on a photo printer.

And users aren't restricted to still images, as the A730 takes MPEG4 movies as well.
Packed inside the A730's sleek and stylish body are several editing functions and shooting modes, including electronic image stabilization, which automatically overcomes shaking or blurring caused by accidental hand movements to produce clearer photos; in-camera panoramic stitching, which stitches three images into a single panoramic picture to produce an ultra-wide shot; face-detection technology, which detects faces in a scene and then automatically focuses and optimizes exposure for them; and red-eye removal, which removes the appearance of red eyes in shots taken with a flash. In addition, the camera offers multiple scene modes--such as sports, children, indoor, snow, sunset, etc.--and a continuous shooting option for sports and other fast-moving subjects.
