    This has become my default on my Mac, it's lightweight and it's very fast compared to Firefox, it doesn't have a lot of extensions but the few that exists are very useful. Definitely a must have browser for me

    This is my second choice of browser when I strike the odd site that won't play with Safari, the interface isn't quite up there with Safari, but it has plenty of skins and other options to tweak it, I likee!

    Nice and lightweight web browser. It's currently faster then Firefox but slower then Safari. It doesn't have the extensions like Firefox.

    I loved this on my older Macs, but the lack of Firefox's extensions really keep me from going back to Camino (or Safari for that manner). It's faster but that comes at a price of less features.

    For all Camino users, pimpmycamino is a must-visit website.

    My favourite browser on Mac OS X. It's like a native version of Firefox, the look, feel and function of Camino is nicely integrated with OS X. I like how Camino uses Keychain access for password storage instead of it's own system like Firefox. My favourite feature by far is it's low resource use. Camino only uses 10 to 20% CPU on my PowerBook G4, whereas Safari 4 uses 30 to 60% CPU for the same number of tabs. This means I can browse the web for longer when on battery power.

    One of the best, efficient browsers for the OS X platform.

    Great browser. Not as good as Safari in my opinion but I prefer Camino over Firefox because Camino is MUCH faster.

    Features: 3/5, Camino receives a relatively poor score here simply because it isn't as feature dense as some of its closest rivals, such as Opera, Firefox and the obvious others.

    Interface: 5/5, Very clean and easy to use. It also has a customizable toolbar which is a very nice feature making the interface even more user friendly.

    Performance: 5/5, Being feature sparse means Camino leaves a very small footprint on your Mac, applications such as Firefox look goliath in comparison. This allows for very good performance.

    Price/Value: 5/5, It's free!

    Overall this is a 5/5 from me, ideally suited for someone who doesn't need 1 million and 1 features and likes a nice, clean and fast interface for browsing.

    On Mac, we have Firefox, Opera, Safari and Camino to use (chromium is under development), but Firefox is very unstable for me, Opera and Safari is slow, then Camino becomes my first choice, I am looking forward to seeing Chrome for Mac.

    I prefer this to Firefox and Safari. It may not have as many features as Firefox, but it has the advantage of looking like more a native Mac application.

    Very nice en clean browser. For me, a realy good alternative for Safari and Firefox. Until Chrome arrives for Mac.

    I feel weird about using Camino; so much of Firefox isn't where I want it. But I'm a Mac user. I want to love Camino, but I don't.

    Me, I'm happy using Minefield (Firefox's nightly).

  • devil_may_laugh fanatic

    I really enjoy using this browser as compared to a lot of others out there. Its fast and stable :) Prefer it to safari but still miss IE7
