The Worst Digital Cameras Ever

I just stumbled across an article by Digital Camera HQ talking about the worst cameras ever. Although written in October 2006, some of the cameras are still on the market so watch out! In no particular order, the writer calls out these cameras:

• Canon Powershot A70
• Sea Life DC500
• Kodak Easyshare One
• Polaroid PDC-5080
• Pentax Optio E10

While I was surprised by the Canon A70 (as I've always been happy with my Canon's), further details revealed a major glitch in the camera and Canon had to offer free repairs for it. It's the one camera that has driven many people away from Canon's ever since.

I'm certainly not surprised by the inclusion of the Pentax Optio E10 though. Of all the cameras on ProductCritic, it has the lowest ProductCritic Score of 63. Not surprisingly, the second lowest score on the whole site goes to its cousin, the Pentax Optio A10 which received a 69. That definitely tells me that Pentax doesn't know how to make a good point & shoot...although I believe that their dSLR's fare a lot better given that the Pentax K10D has a ProductCritic Score of 90 and is in the Top 5 cameras on the whole site.
