    It is a Hitachi DS-A651. 10.1MP, 6x Optical, IS, SD cards. ISO only up to 400 though. Any chance it could be a bargain? Or more likely a regret?

    The Welsh support two teams when it comes to rugby. Wales of course, and anyone else playing England

      Look HERE:



      It appears to be based on the Vivitar Vivicam X60.......

      Just the name Vivitar would be a turn off for me... .

        In 99% of P&S cameras anything above is unusable, nothing to miss.

              Thanks.

              Well, 200 is usable for most. The 400 ISO where it starts to hurt the eyes, big time.
