We bought one of these "Medion" cameras in the US a
couple of months ago from Aldi, and found it impressive
for the price ($299US). The lens was sharp to the corners,
the 4-meg CCD gave good images, the camera came with
many accessories, and the camera is easy to use. For
"snapshooting", it is a good buy in a digital camera - though
I think a film camera is a better choice for most people...
