 "M1063 LCD screen" 2010-05-20
By Don (surprise,AZ)

LCD view screen lasted 7 months. View screen french fried.

Kodak wants half the value, plus shipping to "repair".

I think not.

There was absolutely no abuse, dropping ect .... disappointing value.

 "So Slow" 2010-05-18
By Jessica Sammons
I recently purchased this camera to update my old Kodak camera. I decided to purchase this one because it was similar to my old one. So far, the camera is easy to use and easy to transport; however, the time it takes to let me take another picture is too long. When I read reviews there was no mention of the delay in between pictures, but there should be! There is about a 15 second delay in between taking a picture and being able to take the next, which is a lot of time! Overall, the camera is not bad but I would look into getting a different brand if you want to take those "in the moment" pictures.

 "Not worth the money!" 2010-04-28
By Javier Perez-albert
Bought the camera after reading the reviews, it sounded like a safe buy, especially for the price.



Here is what I like: daytime picture quality, size, battery life.



Dislike: you can't see the screen in the sun, its not bright at all!!



also, HORRIBLE night time picture quality, and i mean really bad.



one more: my old digital camera (canon powershot) had an easy to find power button (it was elevated). in other words, i could stick my hand in my pocket and push the ON button while i was pulling the camera out, which is great for those spontaneous shots. With this camera, I find that i have to pull it out, then find the button, then turn it on. Its just a poor design by Kodak.



Video quality isn't great, and the sound picked up by the mic is pretty bad.



The interface for deleting pictures is awkward too: you have to press the delete button, then move the cursor up to select that you want to delete the picture. after it deletes the picture, it takes you to the next picture and asks if you want to delete it as well, when it should in fact just take you back to picture taking mode, or a plain preview mode.



sorry for the long negative review, but i really am disappointed by this one. I am now buying a new panasonic because i don't dare to take this one with me to a trip out west.

I deeply recomend friends and relatives to use Amazon.com for their purchases. I got great service, good price, and fast shipping. Amazon has lots of items to choose from.

 "my review after a year of my life with it, owning it, destroying it, and repairing it and still using it" 2010-03-31
By Kabol, Johnathan N. (Little Rock)
i bought this a year ago after the desire to switch from the much larger z760. this camera went on sale at office depot for $99.99 with a free camera case. so i bought it and sold my old one for $50. basically, it was a fifty dollar upgrade for twice the mp and twice the preview screen and better overall coloring.



i'm very picky about every investment i make and i looked into this model--and a few key others--for several months before purchasing. there are standards i look for in any camera and these are those standards:



-is it easy to use, or will it infuriate my woman



-does it have a nice display screen, and can you kill the screen to conserve battery life while still shooting



-does it have a strong many favorable reviews



-it has to have a li-ion battery--the days of aa's and rechargeable aa's is long gone, the li-ions last a month and charge in forty minutes



-is it sturdy, of quality construction



-it must use an sd card, because of the universality of secure digitals i feel more secure taking them to any store for the occasional printing



-does it feel good in your hand



-does it have a view finder



this little guy passed everything except the viewfinder.. i do miss that function because when you are taking wide angle shots with heavy zoom, it is easier to center a pict through a view finder than a screen; plus on a bright day the viewfinder is easier to see than the lcd screen. but i deal with that because it is a minor desire and the rest is the most important.



this camera can be easy to use by setting the automatic flash, or you can advance it if you wish for specific targets like the dew on a peddle or the yawn of a puppy. for our household, we need a fairly universal camera. my woman cares less about capturing details than about capturing memories. i prefer to gather both at once. so the camera has to be easy to function for her and also offer the functionality of someone in desire of more pristine captures.



this does it all.



i have not used the software that came with the camera. i never use the software. it's my opinion that the less software on my computer the better. computers are easier to police for maleware and spyware if you maintain minimal programs on them. that is why i choose sd card cameras. sd cards are the most universal.



i did destroy this camera once by knocking it from a shelf into a cold cup of coffee. the camera fit perfectly and the camera submerged completely. it was so dead.. i had to take it completely apart and dry everything out. (the first thing i did was remove the battery and sd card.) i took a blow dryer to the lens, that was the last to dry off. i had to do that several times before the lens would remain clear, before it would not continue to fog up.



all back together, that was months ago and the camera still works perfectly.

i am not a man to put belongings in cases. that is why i do not purchase cheaply made items. i use them. abuse them. there are scratches on the lens and dings on the unit. i have dropped it plenty of times and even gave it a swim in cold coffee, and this unit stands up the way i expect it to: completely and without disappointment. i recommend it to the casual memory collector. it shoots black and white, high color, natural color, low color, and sepia. you can change the pixels in use to conserve sd card storage, and you can designate the type of shot you want to capture--landscape or up-close or motion or daylight or cloudy..



also, this unit has a max card capacity of 4gb hcsd/sd card. so dont buy an eight or sixteen gig card and expect to use that in full function. though, with a 4gig card at max settings, this card will capture almost two thousand pictures. i shoot several times in order to try and capture perfect individual shots and deal with the editing later, but even in akumal, mx for a full week, i only took six hundred photos. that's not a whole lot, but it's also not a few.. a two gig card--for a thousand picture--is all you need and those are very cheap now too. so this camera, in my estimation, is a great investment for the casual family or home shooter. economical and versatile, you cant ask for more.



( except maybe a viewfinder ha )









p.s.- i think i'll add a video review later. though a bit grainy for a "480p" video feature, the vid functions well in favorable lighting. outside, too, though if there is wind present it will remain present in the home vid. though, i can only preach that if you are in need of a camera AND a camcorder, that you purchase both. camera home videos are often not as clear as the desired effect sought. that's my take.
