I purchased the DX6490 because it is one of but a few budget-priced cameras that supports a lense adapter. My cousin has made every excuse not to reproduce a family portrait under glass and it became obvious that at least a polarizing filter was needed. The DX6490, with the rare lense adapter and requisite filter kit, has proven to be an excellent machine to photograph the difficult subject of portraits under glass. Glare is virtually eliminated and the quality is quite acceptable. The unit is used, but still the batteries hold a respectable charge. The only drawback is Kodak's diabolical multifunction power, etc. rotary switch that demands a fair amount of dexterity to operate.

I've had many cameras, both film and digital, and this one by far blows the others out of the water! A friend of mine bought a 6490 new a few years ago and raved about it - her photos were so amazing. So last year when I was in the market to buy a camera, I looked it up on Amazon. I was so glad to see that not only did they include the camera specs, tons of user reviews, and even a couple for sale used through the Marketplace, but also over 100 photos taken by other owners that I got to appreciate! That convinced me to find and buy one used on eBay, which I did. I was lucky, the camera was in excellent condition and have had no trouble with it.
It may be an older model, but the operation of this camera is so simple compared with the new ones out on the market today! I had use of a 10MP Canon camera for a while thinking I might want to upgrade this one, but it took way too long to figure out the controls which were tiny, and after reading the manual and taking many, many photos over the course of several days using various settings, the photos were often blurry, even with image stabilization built in! I found I didn't need the extra pixels after all, and I think they actually slowed down the camera's operation.
I do love how the 6490 feels in my hands, too - not too big, not too small (like the Canon). Most of all I appreciate the fact that I don't feel the need to "upgrade" as long as I keep getting this kind of stellar quality in my photos!! Sure wish it used AA batteries, though - that's the only drawback to this camera that I can see!

I haven't had this camera very long, but am very impressed with it. As a retired professional photographer, my standards are pretty high, and this puppy with its Schneider lens takes fantastic detail. Shot a picture of my dog's face at full optical telephoto, and every hair is sharp. Commenting on some of the criticisms of this camera. Telephoto is 380mm equiv. If you don 't have it on a tripod it won't be sharp. True of all long teles on all cameras, including those with OIS. Dark pictures inside. Haven't had a problem. Since this is one of the very few prosumer cameras that will take an add-on flash, if I need light, I'll put my big Vivitar 283 on it and can light up a gym. Dinky built in flash on any camera is strictly for close (under 4 meters) shooting. Delay in shooting after pressing shutter button - true of every digital camera. To get sharp pictures turn off the digital zoom. It's a gimmick on all cameras. Comparing this camera with Nikons and other digital prosumer cameras I have owned, the Kodak DZ6490 wins hands down. At under a $100 used its an incredible buy.

Great Camera. You won't be disappointed! I bought this camera new years ago. I still have it and I am thinking about buying a second as a spare. The video is kinda small but the pictures are incredible. I have sent some pictures in and had them blown up. They looked so good I could not believe it was a digital camera. This camera once sold for $600.00. The dock works great also. Kodak keeps its software updated. I just downloaded the newest update yesterday.

I used this great camera for about 5 years before upgrading to a Nikon D90. It did extremely well
