We are using these old cameras with a computer (and linux systems) for automatic monitoring of the Nature. The great list of useful and (now, in 2013, when this camera looks like quite an obsolete piece of equipment) very reasonable priced accessories (WC-68, FC-E8, TC-3ED etc.) makes this camera an ideal tool not only for such a purpose but even for inexpensive general photography. For example, CP-5000 with WC-68 is still unsurpassed as a cheap, robust, extra wide angle digital camera giving pictures (of equiv. focus length 19 mm) of very reasonable quality
I've owned 3 of these and I always seem to have problems with them. The batteries run out extremely fast so it's good to have about 5 batteries on had if you go out for a day of shooting. Also, sometimes the camera just won't turn on! That might be a battery issue as well. When this camera quits working, I buy another one because they are my favorite camera for shooting macro.

Got this old camera to put on a nikon dissecting scope. The adaptor was inexpensive and the camera works fine.

Easy to use. Just the right size. Easy enough my children can take pictures. Can take profesional type photos with this camera.
I've used this camera for years and think it takes the sharpest close ups of any camera out there.
