 Hey everyone, Sheba1000 here. Today we're going to be reviewing this old Vivitar Vivicam 46. This thing is old. I've had it for several years. I've had it out here we're doing a yard sale today and I've had it out here in yard sales and I thought it's been it's been open but it's been taped back together so let's do a review on it. It's not going to sell by now just put it up in with my camera collection I can't I got this in a bunch of stuff I think a couple years ago and it's just never sold so in the plastic wasn't yellowed like that you know so alright guys let's open this up and let's check it out. Okay guys so like I was saying this Vivitar Vivicam 46 it's got a copyright date or whatever I wanted 2012 I was reading some reviews on this thing and I think the newest review I read was 2016 the other ones was 2012 and 2013 of course you know they were $20 when they were new I forgot to get an SD card sorry about the background noise but I got the tractor back there running at the back of our property because a stupid neighbor's playing his music again every day starts 6 37 o'clock in the morning we're sitting out front it's ridiculous so it's time to uncap the headers on the vat and take it around there I'm not kidding you and then well you want to play a game of noise but anyway so minimum system requirements Windows XP SP3 Vista SP1 over Windows 7 Intel processor based Mac with Mac OS X 10.5 or higher uses two double-a batteries not included alkaline recommended I don't have any alkaline we're just going to try this out for fun I'll probably throw it up on the shelf with my other cameras yes it was a piece of crap then I'm sure it's gonna be a piece of crap now resolution 2304 by 1720 28 4.1 megapixels holy crap it's supposed to have software in here but I doubt if it's in here but we'll see if I got a knife up here somewhere I am dwindling down on my stock so I'm gonna have to restock soon open this up here it does take a memory card I don't know what size probably a two probably no more than an eight yes feels like it's got the okay it does it's got the imaging software in it and of course the USB thing and here's the camera itself I'm glad I didn't sell that this ain't gonna work no no it's gotten too hot it's melted I'm sitting in the sun that's why I tried to tell her don't set this kind of stuff in the Sun but oh this is melted bad this should be interesting glad I didn't sell this thing I don't even know how you put the batteries in I don't know how to open it to put the batteries in it I got some software anyway easy guide read me first okay so this is kind of for fun please do not return to store if you have bull crap see whenever something says that and I have a problem with it I will take it back to the store because I didn't buy it from the company I bought it from that store they bought it from the company they can send it back let's see where do we put the batteries in there's the SD card this is nice let's have a little door right here according to this thing I don't it's supposed to slide off I don't know but it's melted I mean very very melted this is probably going to garbage can okay well I'm going to try to figure out because it says 46 this is the 46 says supposed to have right there in front but it doesn't for a camera a Vivi cam 46 the polarity of the batteries from left to right should be inserted as positive and the negative install front cover remove front cover okay so it's telling me to slide this somehow and of course it's not going to slide because it's like this is melted melted there we go I just yanked it open alright there it is let's just see if it'll power up I got a couple cheap batteries in here dollar general oh the batteries batteries ain't even going to fit so here we go there's one all right now how do we turn it on here that upside down upside down okay here's the power button oh I seen a light I seen a light come on nothing's happening now the light won't come on so you know the batteries might not be that great let me go get some more batteries seeing supposedly it's supposed to take like video clips of course there's no mic in it so you won't have sound and okay now it's not doing anything so all right let me try some more batteries so guys sit tight guys okay guys so I just had this thing kicked on it's on it's actually on I don't know if you can see that all right so since it does come on I was just in the house I need to get trying to get it good to go to okay I'm on menu here so I'm gonna go in the house and get a memory card and let's see what this thing does okay guys I found an old 8 8 gig card I don't even know if it's any good but it seems like it's taking pictures it took one picture okay let me see if I come up with something different then I'm gonna take some pictures and see now it's saying memory card full it's supposed to have an internal memory of one picture so let me try another card let me see what's going on here and then I'll take some pictures if I can and we'll put them on here and see what's happening okay guys so I did get it to work I took several pictures and a video clip I'm gonna throw them in right now and we'll see what we'll see what they look like I'm not expecting too much guys by the way the video clip does not it doesn't have a mic so it has no audio so this should be interesting so let's throw them up on the screen and check it out okay guys so the wind has picked up so the camera as you can see wasn't as bad as everybody was saying it was but you know I mean for 2012 standards I think it was acceptable other than like I say you know that the video clip is shaky now these are all unedited that you saw but I'm shaky anyway you know but if you had it on a tripod just take a video clip of something you can overdub it you can put music to it whatever you still buy these things a lot of them are new old stock they're one like 18 bucks for that hard time selling as you see I had this one for $3 and it never sold but even though it's melted and I mean it's just all warped up and I'm going to throw it up on my on my shelf I mean I think it's pretty cool that I mean this thing is melted so bad I don't know if the camera's picking that up but it's and it still works so I'm pretty impressed with that I am going to try to put this imaging software on my computer see if it'll take it I'm running Windows 10 I didn't go to 11 I'm not going to I'm staying on 10 there's been a lot of problems with Windows 11 keeps asking me you want upgrade no no I'm not I just want to stay where I'm at but yeah this is I'm gonna see if my computer will take that just for fun but I mean you saw that's all unedited I didn't retouch anything on it so yeah but the date came back is January 2012 because you know I didn't set the date on that thing I don't even know if you can I'm sure you can but I didn't set the date on it so it came back as one something 12 January something 2012 so it's a 2012 camera for sure yeah I'm gonna put that up on my up on my shelf with my other ones because it's just kind of cool that I've had it all these years and and just never opened up when I did it was melted and it still works and it works better than a lot of the reviews I saw you know talking about you know the pixelation and all that I'm pretty impressed with you know because 2012 I mean you had 1080p in 2012 which yeah of course would have made that look like crap and a lot of people was comparing it to to the 1080p oh it's nothing like my 1080p I but you know I knew it was going it wasn't going to be as good but I didn't think was this junkie well when you're comparing it to that I mean you know video quality on that's probably what 720 maybe even less than that monkey shaking her head she has no idea what that means do you now she's shaking her head no at least she's honest what year was the war of 1812 thank you you learned that didn't you yeah you guys saw that one right all right guys there you go I am actually I'll probably never use it maybe once in a while get it out and just take some pictures but just for fun because you know I like getting my old cameras out and stuff but ever so often yeah I mean I'm giving it a two thumbs up if it was 2012 I'd be kind of happy with it as far as they still image camera goes you know yeah I would have been perfectly happy with it just unedited and you know you can in fact I'm going to edit these photos the last after this clip I'll do the same photos again and video edited and we'll just see what it looks like so that being said I'm gonna say she barely met the man alleged I'm gone for now mug she's gonna have a couple videos coming up huh you got a mug in there yeah and yeah what's the other way all right we won't say anything we'll keep them in suspense stay tuned it's pretty cool thanks for watching guys and we'll see you in the next one Monk down bye bye guys
