5.0 out of 5 stars Great Camera, Easiest to use, February 6, 2003

By	R. Thiruveedhi "trk79" (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The best part I like about this camera is that it is very easy to use. Taking photographs is fun with user friendly menu. I did not even pen the manual. I have taken several good photographs using this camera. Thge pictures were crystal clear at highest resolution. But if you are lookign for a camera which can zoom, then this camera is not for you. I take only point and shoot pictures most of the time and so its perfect for me.

Okay now I want to tell something about the part after you take the snaps. That is downloading. The software is so easy to use and when you plug in this camera the software automatically downloads all the pictures. Actually on my computer I can see the camera as a drive in windows explorer.

Things I dont like are low memory and low battery life. I recommend buying rechargeable batteries and 256 Mb compact flash card which is right now on sale in amazon.com.

4.0 out of 5 stars simple so far, May 6, 2003

By A Customer

I just got this camera from Amazon. At first, I was nervous. The camera is very small and light -- it felt... cheap. I loaded up the software (Windows 98) without a problem. I was able to take pics the first day, upload them, edit them, and email them. The pictures were really quite good -- I wouldn't consider paying hundreds for more expensive cameras -- it's not worth it. The free 32 MB card (offer from Amazon which might have expired) lets me take about 35 pics at the best quality.
Cons: the LCD screen is really pretty small and the editing software is really basic. But it lets you email people right away and sends them at low resolution so your friends won't have to download gigantic files when they open your email.

I am mostly pleased so far. I did not want to spend big $ and I feel I definitely got my money's worth -- $... for the camera and the free 32 MB secure digital card. Also -- I was able to connect to my TV and view pics there without a problem.

Kodak EasyShare is definitely Easy. I don't have a Dock and won't buy one -- that's just unnecessary.

This is a very good First Camera to buy for those on a budget but want pics that look clean, crisp, and that are easy to take/edit/email.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Happy, January 1, 2003

By A Customer

I received this camera as a gift. I wanted a new digital camera since my last one had 640x480 res. and the pictures were not that great to say the least. I have a new son and we were taking lots of pictures to email to family members. I just love this camera. The docking cradle is a must. This camera has rechargeable batteries that charge in the docking cradle. And the pictures tranfer at the touch of a button. This is so much easier than the last camera I had. The quality of the pictures is great, good exposure, the flash set to auto works well, not too bright. The only negative thing I would have to say is the LCD screen does not work well in low light, but I have no problem dealing with that. This is a good 2MP camera at a good price. Definitely invest in the docking cradle to go with it.
