Polaroid T1031 Digital Camera Review

May 12, 2010 8:59 am 0 comments

One of the most attractive features of this little T1031 digital camera is the price. Regular Priced at $119.99, it’s now on sale at Amazon for $64.99  - a 46 perecent savings.

The catch?  You have to like orange. But unless you are really conscious about colors and fashion it shouldn’t make a bit of difference what the external color of the camera is  - especially with a point and shoot. An orange camera, while not common – is just fine for point and shoot camera. Besides, think of it as a conversation piece.

You can talk about the ten megapixels that  this camera contains that’s good enough for beautiful poster sized prints.

Show your friends the big and bright 3.0 inch LCD display which makes it easy to review and compose your digital photos.  The 3.0x zoom lens from Polaroid that quietly contracts when not in use and the 32mb of storage built into this camera, which means you can start shooting with this little polaroid right out of the box.

Face tracking and image stabilization are standard features on this small point and shoot that’s under $100. The faces are detected and then the proper exposure for the faces and sharpness for the eyes are what’s important and this small compact polaroid takes care of all this automatically.

If you do need more memory or storage for your photos, there’s  a SD/SDHC memory card slot that can allow you to shoot more photo than what’s included with the memory built into the camera.

Panoramic stitching is a fun feature on the Polaroid T1031 and allows you to fill in or stitch together your favorite scenes into one big wide photo. A great feature to have when the wide angle zoom is still not wide enough. Combine more than one photo into one big photo

Being a small point and shoot, the exposures are taken care of you with auto exposures modes, but also 20 different scene settings which allow you to pick the perfect settings for your particular scene you are shooting. Sports, portrait, close up photography are all there and more.

Lastly, you’ll never miss the action with the burst mode at 1 frame per second. A great feature to have for kids or other fast moving objects.

The Polaroid T1031 is  compact small digital camera at a great price . At well under $100, it’s hard to beat this point and shoot for price and performance.

      Best Digital Cameras

      Trying to determine what the best digital camera is depends on so many different variables it’s almost mind boggling. When I started in photography cameras had settings for shutter speed on the camera body, aperture on the camera lens and that was pretty much it. Fast Forward to 2010 cameras have gotten easier to use thanks to digital camera technology in the form of point and shoot and single lens reflex formats but what is the best digital camera that suits your needs? The best digital camera for sports might be a SLR, but when you have to carry a [...]

      The Canon SX20is digital camera has one very, very important feature that in my own opinion makes the Canon SX20is a best selling digital camera and beats a lot of other digital cameras on the market today: A 20x zoom lens This one feature (actually there’s another but we’ll get to that in a moment) makes this the best and one of the cheaper digital cameras that are perfect for travelling this summer.

      Nikon Coolpix S8000 Digital Camera Review

      The Nikon Coolpix S8000 small and compact digital camera offer a whole lot of features considering it’s size and price.  With a suggested retail price of $299, it’s still a deal of a digital camera,but with discounts you can buy the Nikon S8000 for much less than the ‘suggested price’ might be. But enough about the Nikon S8000 price, what makes or breaks a digital camera is it’s feature set and the Nikon S8000 is no slouch. Offering 14 megapixels (actually, 14.2) and a 10x optical zoom lens and 3 inch LCD you’d think that would be enough features right [...]
