Josh Waller has reviewed the Casio QV-R40, a 4 megapixel digicam which has an amazing start-up time of one second and shutter-lag of 0.01 seconds. The Casio QV-R40 currently retails for around $300 / £200, but apparently is available refurbished at Dixons in the UK for just £99! 4 meagpixels for less than £100 - what a bargain! (sadly they’re out of stock at the moment, not that I checked or anything).

“It’s main selling points are the small size and very fast start up time. The camera is also fast in operation - it’s quick to focus, and quick to take the picture. This is very much a good thing, and has been one of the major drawbacks of using a digital camera, compared to using a film camera. The size of the camera is also very good, it will easily fit into a pocket, and therefore is more likely to be used, meaning you’re more likely to catch the moment.”
