you could also check out owners' opinions and reviews. However, they tend to be a bit biased ;p

all reviews here, seem like a good value camera @ 700 dollars, how come nobody interested??

 

[mpenza]

$700 only? that's cheap!

hmm... maybe a worthy competitor for the 2MP C2040 and Casio QV2900UX.

yup mi friend bought it @ 750, too expensive, he checkout other shops selling @ 700 dollars onli

Not popular? Maybe becos its a minolta... People mind just keep turning onto Nikon, cannon and olympus when they think camera... Minolta's marketing a bit bad... But for me, its minolta minolta minolta

And another thing... The S304 isn't a winner in the "appearence" category... I guess that deters some potential buyer.

Hey Flare, I tried take off spec when taking pictures with my C2040 but I can't see clearly no matter how I adjust the dioptre? The dioptre on my C2040 not working?
