Acer's 5MP CCD compact — 3x optical zoom, 2in LCD, SD storage (512MB max), AA power, mid-2000s.
The Acer CE-5330 was a 5-megapixel compact from the mid-2000s, part of the short-lived range of digital cameras Acer sold in Europe alongside its computing products. It was a straightforward budget point-and-shoot rather than an enthusiast model, and the camera line was discontinued after a few years.
It carries a 5.18-megapixel CCD delivering 2560x1920 images through a 3x optical zoom with 4x digital zoom, framed on a 2.0in LTPS colour LCD. There is 12MB of internal memory plus an SD slot supporting cards up to 512MB, an automatic flash with four modes, a macro mode focusing to 6cm, and USB 2.0 connectivity. Power comes from two AA cells, and the body measures about 91x61x27mm at roughly 130g without batteries.
It suits collectors of oddball PC-brand digicams and anyone after a cheap CCD-era compact; AA power keeps it usable. Expect basic automatic operation, a small dim screen by modern standards and modest low-light ability.
The documented 512MB SD ceiling matters: modern SDHC cards will not work, so budget for a small-capacity SD card. Otherwise check the AA compartment for corrosion, the LCD for damage, and that the zoom and flash operate — with AA power there is no proprietary battery to fail.
