Braunschweig, 21st July 2004 - Two new digital camera bargains are set to put Yakumo in the digital camera market spotlight. The new Mega-Image 47sx joins the Yakumo camera line up at entry-level with a price tag of 99 euros. And, with an unbeatable recommended retail price of 199 euros, the Mega-Image 67x targets creative hobby photographers.

It has a CCD chip with effective 4.10 megapixel resolution, 3x optical (small picture format: 34-102 mm) and 2x digital zoom. For memory expansion, the camera has a slot for Compact Flash cards. All in all, the Mega-Image 47sx is destined to be an ideal camera for good quality, holiday snapshots.

The Mega-Image 67x is Yakumo’s new top model. It has a CCD chip with an effective resolution of 6.36 megapixels, 3x optical (small picture format: 37-111 mm) and 2x digital zoom and also provides an extension slot for SD cards. This Yakumo model offers manual exposure control, manual white balance and focus settings - allowing the hobby photographer to produce individual and creative photo results. Two rechargeable AA batteries, charger and power supply are supplied with the new Yakumo camera.
Both models are available now at all Yakumo dealers.

As far as I know Yakumo don't have a UK distributor, so yes, you would need to purchasefrom Germany.

I have bought a Yakumo 57x (the same with 5 Megapixels). It has problems related to firmware:
*like other digital cameras, it is bad if the background is light and the object is dark. But others like HP Photosmart haven't got this problem.
*exposition is reduced to only 3 o 4 seconds and it's little for some photos in dark houses or sometimes at night
*sometimes it can record video
*sometimes it can't review fotos
*sometimes it can't record video
*there are no firmware upgrades in the web

I have brought a Yakumo Mega-Image 47 recently, I think it may have been a bad bunch because. The quality has always been very grainy with awful red running across the center of all images. And now i also have focusing issues. So all in all not a good purchase.

"awful red running across the center of all images"? Sounds like a manufacturing issue - I'd send it back immediately...

I bought a Yakumo Mega Image 47 in July 2004 and it is a good entry level digital camera. However, you have to take the battery out to charge it and I wanted to get a spare battery. However, I simply can't find anyone who has the rechargeable li-on battery listed for Yakumo and I'm not sure if there is a compatible make.
