 "Do not buy this camera" 2010-01-09
By FrothyFroth (Atlanta, GA)
I won this camera. It does not come with a memory disk. It worked great for about two months after I bought a chip. I took many pictures and the picture quality was excellent. What is wrong with this camera? It is now a paper weight as it will no longer turn on. I did nothing to cause it to malfunction. It is just cheaply made in China. You hit the on-off button and the lens comes out and immediately goes back in, and the mode dial begs to be broken off, and doesn't want to stay in the mode selected. I am on Amazon today to buy a Canon. My wife has had a Canon for 5 years that has worked flawlessly. I compared it to this camera, and the difference in construction quality glares at you. The Kodak is cheaply made and is not built to last. It is no more than an expensive throw-away camera.

My son loves this camera, which is a big step up from his camera phone he was always using. his favorite part is the adding text to the photo part. Great gift for Christmas.

 "I really wanted to like this camera..." 2010-01-05
By clkinaz (Arizona)
This camera was rated as a "Best Buy" in a well-respected consumer magazine.

After just a few hours of use, I returned it and purchased a different brand camera.

My three major complaints:

- Picture "barreling" distortion

- Software

- USB connector



Pictures showed excessive "barrel" distortion in the image. That is to say, straight lines appear curved. This was most apparent in the image periphery. I'm really disappointed that the consumer reporting magazine did not acknowledge this characteristic.



Per the directions, I loaded the included Easy share software on my PC. Apparently this is necessary for transferring pics from the camera to the computer. I never could get it to work right. (Granted, this was not a camera issue, per se.) My previous camera (Olympus) was a "plug & play" affair which acted pretty much like another hard drive on my computer with no additional software required.



The USB cable connector was a very tight fit into the camera socket. When removing the cable, I would have to wiggle and pull to disconnect the cable. Maybe it just needed to be "broken-in" but I'm certain that after a few connects and disconnects, it would just be "broken."



I probably could have lived with any one of these quirks but the combination of all three, added up to a disappointing purchase. I returned the camera for a refund.

 "Horrible Software" 2010-01-01
By K. Wenarsky (Northeast)
This is a great camera for the price. HOWEVER, the software itself is horrendous. It crashes, freezes, ignores the camera when you're trying to download the photos. Both my daughter and I have this camera and I've loaded the software on both our regular PC and laptop, and done the upgrades online, and it still doesn't help. Sometimes you have to restart the camera five or six times before the software will recognize it. The camera itself is nice, but Kodak REALLY bombed on the software with it!

 "Its Pretty" 2010-01-01
By Randy Phillips (Central Calif)
I was attracted to this camera cuz it was so good looking, really thin and the big LCD, also the 10 MP and all the features I was in digital camera heaven, that is untill I transferred my photos to the PC and had a look. Unfortunately my 5 MP 5 yr old Vivitar takes better quality photos. Try using the zoom and the photos are bad, also indoors it really sucks. I really wanted that camera but I decided to find a good one for the same price. I now own a Samsung SL420, its not as pretty, but the photo quality blows the Kodak out of the water, really stunning outdoor photos, and takes beautiful video also, no need to buy a flip. The Samsung has 5X optical zoom and tons of features. But, the Kodak sure was pretty.
