My fifth (arguable) digital camera was a DC-3200; I still own several (others that I picked up at Goodwill).
I say fifth and arguable because my first real digital camera, prior to it, was this no-name cheapo QVGA camera that took horrible pictures. Prior to that were a series of digitizers (a Dazzle for my 486, some digitizer for my Amiga, and a DS-69b for my TRS-80 Color Computer). There may have been a quickcam or two in there as well.
Anyhow - yeah, it was a really nice camera, and I still keep it around (and the extras I bought) for taking "shop" pictures when my hands are dirty, or I'm in a "dirty" environment (welding, automotive work, etc). Don't want to ruin my phone or my "good" camera.
But I do know of one major downside (ok, two):
1. Slow to take a picture - you had to press the button, and wait - don't move - otherwise it'd blur.
2. Ate AA batteries for lunch - you'd be lucky to get 2 hours out of a set.
But other than those two things - it was really nice camera!
