Stunning continuous shooting performance; snappy performance
in general
Very good manual controls (but see negatives below)
Excellent movie...Dull colors in photos; images look fuzzy and soft; vignetting
in most of my test photos
No long...While it may look like just another ultra zoom camera, the M410R's claim to fame is it's ability to shoot continuously at 3.3.
"I like the power source best for this model, good old AA batteries, no rechargeable maker specific rechargeable..."
"I wish Kyocera/Yashica/Contax were with us still, I always found them of good value for the money, and not being as common as Nikon and Canon, etc..."
"It has more than enough features for the average user and produces very good images..."
In continuous-shooting mode, it can shoot at 3.3 frames per second until the images fill up your memory card...At just under a pound (with batteries), the plastic-bodied M410R is solid and best suited for two-handed operation, with one hand grasping the comfortable rubberized grip and the other cradling the lens...The M410R's 3.4-second boot time is around the median for digital cameras...
The Finecam M410R is Kyocera's most advanced digital camera yet and is designed for those who demand the very best, especially when trying to capture sports or action images...Photographers will love the compact (4.2" W x 2.9" H x 3.4" D) and lightweight M410R with its fast f/2.8 and powerful 10X optical zoom lens, integrated USB 2.0 for fast image transfers...
"Great value, good zoom range, easy to use Lacks digital image stabilization, very power hungry I bought this camera in December, 2004..."
"However, since I love sports shots and shots that required a good zoom range, I decided to go shopping to a decent digital camera with a strong zoom..."
"Easy to use because if my wife can use it anyone can! Pictures are of good quality to my untrained eye..."
