 Small and practical..... a useful little tool August 7, 2005

I purchased this product as a gamble really, not expecting much from it. However after living with it for a couple of weeks i can honestly say it is a superb little prodcut.
The size of the camera is neat and practical, fits in my coat pocket. Utilises 2 x AA batteries of which i use rechargable, they last pretty well, only thing that really drains the batteries is the flash from the camera mode, that can flatten them quite quickly. The quality of the camera is very good, you need to stay still or you can blur a picture easily. Also the video camera quality is not excellent but very good, you do lose quality on the zoom so all in all camera and video camera is best for closer work than distance.
The advantage with this is you can either plug the SD card (which can be upto 512mb) into a card reader on your computer or usb lead, then the files can be transfered by cut / paste onto your pc without fuss for editing etc.
If you need something thats is cheap and realiable then this is for you, if you want high quality then another option may be best for you.
All in all i can recommend this item to anyone.
 Vivitar DVR-310 is a waste of your money!!! January 12, 2006

I bought this camera, my first video and digital camera, in the hopes of taking wonderful movies of my honeymoon & my new stepson and I feel cheated. I could have taken my money and thrown it out the window. The LCD screen doesn't let enough light in to see when you try to take the picture. And the video camera? Even worse. It's for outdoor use only unless you have florescent lighting in your house. It's impossible to take a good picture. You have to try and line it up 5 times to get it right and by that time you've totally drained the 2 AA batteries that it runs on. I called Vivitar and they wouldn't even hear of refunding me my money despite the fact that I'm so unhappy so if anyone has any idea what I should do with a camera that I don't want, please post it here cause at this point it's a paperweight. Don't waste your money on it like I did.
If I could, Zero stars!! - DVR 310 is this the worst buy ever??? January 20, 2006

I bought this cheap and nasty "thing" and was utterly speechless to test this out before xmas, and the alkaline batteries (supplied) drained within a minute! (eh?) yes folks - it cannot do what it is upposed to do!. Avoid this at all costs unless you like hassle and losing money, by buying a proper product. Vivitar must be getting hard up. I used to use Vivitar lenses in my SLR (excellent quality) and flashguns (again excellent!). So imagine the suprise in store with this lump of you know what!.
Again - Avoid Avoid Avoid, like the black death.
 8 thumbs up!!!! May 29, 2006

Video quality was very poor November 27, 2006

The video quality on this camera was very poor in normal household lighting. To be fair, I didn't test it in the outdoors, but to be honest what good is a camera you can only use outside? It was simple to operate. I chose this camera because I was familiar with the Vivitar name as a good camera maker. This offering doesn't really come close to living up to standards.
The price tag is good, but you're setting yourself up for frustration if you want to try and use this as a camcorder. Don't waste your money. Still pictures might be ok, but the video was just plain sub standard.
