Summary: my favorite camera
Comment: I've had this camera for almost 5 years and haven't had any problems with it. I've taken it to Yosemite, Tahoe, Napa, Alaska, Australia, Death Valley and Mexico to name a few locations. It's fairly rugged (I'm a bit of a clutz so all of my toys have to be) and takes the most beautiful pictures. I use standard 200 and 400 speed fujifilm from Target, nothing special, but wow, when I get my prints back, I can't believe I took the photos! It sounds like a few reviewers got lemons, but mine has worked perfectly since day one. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a standard point-and-click camera.

Summary: I LOVE this camera!!
Comment: I LOVE this camera. So much so that this is my second one. I dropped the first one on a stone floor and broke the door latch. It takes consistently GREAT pictures - I use Kodak MAX 800 speed film. People always complement the color and clarity. It's compact enough to carry in a purse or backpack. The only downside I could mention would be that you can't take pictures in rapid succession.

Summary: Beautiful!
Comment: I love my Minolta 160c. It is the best camera I have ever had. I am not a professional photographer the camera I used prior to this was a canon snappy that is 10 years old. I got this one off of ebay and I have had no problems with it at all.

The zoom is great during sports and to just get close on any picture. As long as my kids don't get ahold of the camera the pictures have always come out great.

And even that, my 2yo had gotten ahold of it and was taking pictures! The camera held up to his abuse.

The lithium battery last 10-15 rolls of film. It's easy to swap out and I use the 400 or 800 speed film.

Summary: It's Garbage
Comment: I don't write reviews but I want to save someone from making a BIG mistake. The first time I used this camera was in Tahiti and after two rolls of film, it broke. I took it back to Circuit City and got another. I used one roll over Christmas and took it too Egypt. This new one broke after the third roll and I haven't used it since. Who cares about the warranty? What a waste of money - I certainly don't want to have another one of these. I am now using my old reliable 10-year-old camera and am sucking up the expense. But I also don't have pictures of Tahiti and Egypt. Am I supposed to carry two cameras in case this one doesn't work? Never again Minolta will you get my money. It's not the money for the camera but the trip pictures to places I will probably never go again. Thanks for the memories - not.

Summary: A dreadful product
Comment: I bought this camera specifically for the zoom capability. That was fine. Pictures are clear. The trouble with this camera is the On and OFF switch. Sometimes it works..sometimes not. Higher altitude at times cause the problem but even at 200 feet above sealevel it doesn't work.The film has gotten caught up at times and won't auto rewind or wind with new film. I say buy a camera that you know is reliable. I since have bought a Canon Sure Shot 115 and very happy..plus its cheaper.
