  The ones around £40? basically, they are crap.
  
  For not a lot more, around £50-£60, you can get the base model Kodak, which although it's not great, it's a damn sight better than these.

  Below are some macro shots with my crappy vivitar 3935 and the lower tv and deer photo are with a super crap 3755,these cameras cost £108 in total - new and unused last year.
  
  They are Heavy on batteries but I'm reasonably conversant in their use and I switch off the display as soon as possible after power up, recently I managed 97 frames - 640x480 fine 2x2500 Ni-Mh in the 3935.

  The M22 is VERY good for the price.
  
  Would go for it over the Kodak anyday.

  Mooched round and its got so-so reviews, but its hard to tell if its so-so compared to all cameras (in which case that should be expected) or in its P&S class.

  What about looking on Ebay for something that in its day was a good camera. Something about a year old. Maybe a Casio QVR50 or 60. They are nice cameras and can be picked up quite cheaply.
