amazing camera for the price 5
I picked this camera over 3 years ago and am still using it, and selling some of the pictures I take. The depth and clarity of this camera is almost as good as my Rebel xti but whereas one is a serious camera, the kodak is my hiking, kayaking, biking, camping and everyday camera. It's taken quite a few bumps and knocks and bounced back.
Not to heavy or cumbersome, a fantastic camera. As a matter of fact I'm actually looking to buy another one for my son.

this digital camera is easy to use. of course, you must read the owner's manual to use it properly. it is a bit bulky, but it takes good pictures and , yes, you can share your pixs with friends and family.

Don't Judge a Camera By It's Photographer 4
I have had this camera for a little over 2 years, and it still takes better pictures than most other point and shoot digital cameras out there. I'm not a professional photographer or even a very serious amateur, but with this camera I have been able to get great shots of families, little kids, animals, sports, flowers, close-ups, landscapes, and fireworks . . . it even outshoots the cameras my other family members own, and they spent extra money to get higher resolution cameras with even more zoom power. It doesn't compare to an SLR, but it wasn't designed to.

I recently bought an ultra-compact point-and-shoot camera at a "day after Thanksgiving" sale, thinking it would be an easier-to-transport alternative to the Kodak. Even though it has higher resolution, I still rarely use it and wind up taking the Kodak with me anyway. The picture quality is so much better that I don't care how much the camera weighs or how big it is. I bought this camera because of the big lens, not in spite of it. If you read the manual and learn to operate the PASM functions, you can get good shots in almost any light.

This camera is pretty durable - like any other well-used camera, it's been (accidentally) dropped, subjected to high and low temperatures, gotten water on it, and been handled by several kids, and it still works just as well as the day I bought it. It's survived 2 years of day camps, fairs, cooking lessons, and even family Christmas dinners. Everybody wants to borrow this camera, even though most of them own newer, more expensive cameras. The battery lasts an amazingly long time - you will find if you do buy a small camera that runs on disposable alkaline batteries, the extra weight and space you thought you saved will be taken up by spare batteries.

A brief warning: to get great photos out of this or any other camera, digital or film, takes PRACTICE. You should always try using the camera yourself before you buy it, even if it's just in the camera department at a store. I must warn you that if you don't know much about photography, it won't matter what kind of camera you buy - knowing how to compose a shot, how a camera works, and how to edit photos are vital to getting outstanding pictures.

One thing I would suggest is this: don't waste your time installing the software - buy a cheap USB card reader to transfer your pictures to the computer. Better yet, make sure your next computer has a built-in card reader. It saves a lot of time, and if you want to do a lot of editing the included software has only very limited options. I have found that it's also difficult to find photos that have been stored using the Kodak software if you want to open them in other applications. That is the only reason I gave it four stars instead of five.

I recently thought about upgrading my camera, but other than the newer SLRs I haven't found anything better that is reasonably priced.


Versatile, easy to use 5
I bought this camera new, and it is worth every penny. I've used it for photos for many websites, personal pix of family, friends and pets, and every picture turns out great. The multiple autofocus options, various settings for daytime, flash, night, sport and portrait photography make picture taking almost fool-proof. Plus, the video cam is great for those times when I just want to pick up a quick short video without hauling out the full-size video camera. The rechargeable battery lasts a long time between charges, so I can take tons of pictures without worrying about losing power. This workhorse lives up to the Kodak reputation.

Better outdoors than indoors. 3
I've had this camera for 2 years this Christmas. Overall, for the price it is pretty descent. The biggest problem I have with it is that indoor pictures are always grayish, unless in a super bright area, with like flouresent lights!
Outdoor pictures are great. To sum it up, great for beginners, and very well lit outdoor settings.
