Product Description

From the Manufacturer

From the Manufacturer The Kodak Easyshare One is a new digital camera designed as much for sharing pictures as for taking them. It gives people extraordinary control over how and when they share pictures, whether on the LCD screen, online, or as prints. The camera is truly first-of-a-kind, with the ability to hold up to 1,500 favorite pictures for instant display on its crystal-clear, high-resolution, 3-inch touch screen display; direct picture e-mailing and online album viewing via a wireless connection to Kodak Easyshare Gallery (formerly Ofoto); and the capability to take high quality still pictures and video. No other digital camera gives people such extensive ability to take, organize, share, and print their pictures.

The Kodak Easyshare One's huge, rotating 3-inch LCD operates using touch-screen technology.

Kodak designed the Easyshare One camera specifically for sharing. It incorporates multiple benefits that avid picture sharers could only dream of until now, including the following:

Online and e-mail picture sharing without a computer, using a direct, wireless connection to the Kodak Easyshare Gallery service (formerly known as Ofoto). By connecting to the Gallery through a compatible home network or public hotspot, people can upload the pictures and videos for near instantaneous electronic sharing with friends around the world.

The Kodak Easyshare One holds up to 1500 pictures on its 256MB of memory. It's a veritable hard drive that syncs to your PC-based picture collection and allows for handy sharing.

On-the-spot sharing of up to 1,500 favorite pictures, synchronized with a person's PC-based picture collection, thanks to a huge, 3-inch, high resolution, rotating LCD touch screen that’s protected when not in use, plus a generous 256 megabytes of internal memory. In addition, when connected wirelessly to the Kodak Easyshare Gallery, Easyshare One owners can also view thousands more of their pictures stored online, including albums shared by their friends and family.

Significantly enhanced ease-of-use for picture sharing and taking, including the ability to create on-camera albums in which to store pictures, intuitive menu options with touch screen selection, automatic organization of pictures by date taken, and even richer, graphical scene modes to help get the best possible picture in a variety of outdoor and indoor environments.

The Kodak Easyshare One features one-touch wireless printing when used with the Kodak Eashyshare Printer Dock Plus and the included Kodak Wi-Fi card.

One-touch, wireless picture printing when used with the Kodak Easyshare Printer Dock Plus and Kodak Wi-Fi card.

Pictures with professional-quality color and sharpness, with the use of a renowned Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon 3x optical zoom lens (36 to 108 mm equivalent), a 4-megapixel sensor, and the exclusive Kodak Color Science image processing chip.

TV-quality video taking and sharing, with built-in 30 frames-per-second motion and sound recording, plus the ability to share those videos via the Kodak Easyshare Gallery.

Like all new Easyshare digital cameras, the Easyshare One is compatible with the new Imagelink print system. By placing the camera on an Easyshare printer dock or other photo printers compatible with the Imagelink system, people can print their pictures in as little as 90 seconds at the touch of a button. And, with the Easyshare printer docks, people have the built-in convenience of rapid camera battery recharging and one-touch picture transfer to a connected computer.

Product Description

The KODAK EASYSHARE-ONE makes sharing your photos a pleasure. With 4 Megapixels and a Schneider-Kreuznach 3x optical zoom lens, you can capture those special moments in all their life-like glory, and, thanks to the latest in WiFi technology, you'll be able to email your latest photos to friends and family straight from your camera. With 256 MB of internal memory, you can shoot and shoot and shoot without stopping, or take a quick moment to transfer all those photos to your computer, without having to bother with USB connections. The future is here: it's WiFi, and it's user-friendly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Finally arrived!, October 25, 2005

By 

Sprite Marie (North Dakota) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Kodak Easyshare One 4 MP Digital Camera with 3xOptical Zoom (Electronics)

I first saw this camera on the Kodak website and I could hardly wait for it to be available. I admit that the camera is a bit over priced, especially for a 4 megapixel camera. Still, I think the features are really neat. I think part of the high price is because it has a touch screen but I really like that it rotates. Also, since I live in North Dakota and my sister lives in Texas, it's great that I can send her pictures with just a touch of a button. It's also great how the camera organizes your pictures and videos. Over all, I think I got a pretty good deal on the price. Kodak's website offered it with free shipping and handling, an included Wi-Fi card, a free picture viewer(a $100 value), and %10 off accessories. I only have a few regrets about getting this camera, it's quite heavy and it is a lot of new technology to learn at one time. Other than that, I'm looking forward to taking many more great pictures with it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just What I Was Looking For!, July 6, 2006

By 

PK (Springfield, MA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Kodak Easyshare One 4 MP Digital Camera with 3xOptical Zoom (Electronics)

I was looking to replace my current digital camera,a 5 year old Toshiba that has served me well, but memory is hard to come by and I am not really happy with the low light indoor pictures.

What I was looking for was:
1 - More Mega Pixels (picture quality)
2 - Video with Audio
3 - Rotating Screen
4 - Smaller Size
5 - More Memory
6 - Price

The Kodak Easy Share One fit all of my needs.

1 - Going from 2 mega pixels to 4 mega pixels has given me better picture quality. The low light indoor pictures are much better. And when printing pictures you can zoom in alot more without getting the distortion. Overall the pictures are very good.

2 - I was really impressed with the video quality. This little camera takes videos that are just as good if not better than the 8mm camcorder that I have (in good situations). Of course it does not have the video improvement features like image stability or additional lighting and it can't hold the length of video. But the benifit is to not have to carry around both a camera and a camcorder.

3 - It is really nice to have a screen that can be moved around. If you cant stand behind the camera or if you are taking a picture that includes yourself being able to turn the screen makes taking the picture very easy.

4 - The size of the Kodak Easy Share One is alot smaller than my old camera. It will easly fit into a pant pocket. It is not one of the smallest cameras made, but it is small.

5 - WOW 256 meg of on board memory. Thats more than the 6 memory cards combined from my old camera. Plus I got a 1 gig SD card for cheep ($23) and that can hold 28 min. of video or 800 pictures.

6 - Price, I did not want to spend over $200 and I was able to keep checking on-line daily until I found a sale and got it for $159. Thats pretty good for a camera that originally had a MSRP of $599.

Not everything smells like roses. The bad points, if you know about them and are ready to deal with them are not that bad.

1 - Battery life. The battery life is not great it might even be below average. This camera does not have a view finder so the screen is always on. This uses up the battery quicker. I was able to take one days pictures and videos and view them, on one battery. But Kodak provides you with two batteries and a quick charger (2-3hr). I also bought a third battery. As long as you keep a second fully charged battery with you, you should be fine.

2 - Start-up Time. The time it takes for you to take the FIRST picture is on the long side (7-9sec). So you might miss a chance to take an unexpected picture. Once the camera is ready you can take picture after picture really quickly.

Extras -

The large 3" screen makes taking and looking at picture more ejoyable. The smaller screens on other cameras are hard to see.

One feature that I have not used but to some could be a big selling point is the wireless conection. This camera has a wireless adapter that will alow you to transfer the pictures and videos to your wireless computer or over the internet.

Overall I am really happy with the Kodak Easy Share One and I would recommed it to anyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars HiTech Camera - Great Price Now, March 21, 2006

By 

Ivan Morales "Ivan M" (College Station, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Kodak Easyshare One 4 MP Digital Camera with 3xOptical Zoom (Electronics)

I'd seen this camera last year 2005 and thought it was horridly overpriced. Last month I visited Circuit City and saw it for $299 ($399 + $100 rebate). I've had a month with the camera and have mostly praise and a few gripes.

Pros:
Wi-fi Sharing - Instantly use my wifi to share (e-mail,print)
LCD - Huge fold out screen (3")
256 MB - Enough that I didnt have to buy a card w/ the camera
2 Batteries + Charger - Does have short battery life but dual batteries and charger make up for it. You don't have to keep your camera plugged in to keep use it. Just plug in Battery #2 and charge Battery #1 ... you could go forever!
Leather Case - Nice Touch

Cons:
Kinda Heavy - My girlfriend needs to use two hands to be able to steady it
Wi-fi was difficult to setup - I'm pretty tech savy and it was still a pain in the butt to configure
Battery Life
Kodak Sharing - I wish i could set up my own SMTP
