    5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible camera for the price, November 5, 2006
    By Dean Winiarski "guy with opinions" (Milwaukee, WI United States) - See all my reviews
      
    I've been very happy with Kodak digitals ever since I got my 3mp EasyShare about three years ago. That camera was a workhorse that never failed. But when I dropped it into a river this fall, I knew it was time for an upgrade.

    I was a bit wary of this new model, since it's predecessor (the 6.1mp model) was known to have some issues. But so far, this camera has been completely problem-free.

    Not only that, but it TOTALLY BLOWS AWAY my old 3mp---and I was VERY happy with that camera! Incredibly, this camera has TWICE the power and TWICE the features at HALF the price. Now, some might say that's just due to perpetually advancing technology in general; but even when that factor is considered, I think Kodak is still significantly ahead of the curve when it comes to "bang-for-the-buck" functionality. I've met "professional photographer" type snobs who laugh at these Kodak digitals because they look "cheep" and "simple" compared to their $2000 SLRs. But the picture quality is what matters, and these little things come pretty darn close to matching the quality of cameras FOUR TIMES the price in 90% of your common applications.

    I won't go into a feature-by-feature breakdown, but I'll mention my favorite three noticeable improvements over earlier Kodaks in this line: First, the self-closing lens protector is such a welcome improvement. Second, the natural color balance seems to be somewhat improved right out of the camera, reducing my need to tweek my pictures with PhotoShop (I'm a perfectionist about that). Third, these new intelligent shooting modes REALLY WORK! One of the most troublesome shots with a digital is a BACKLIT lighting situation; but this camera's "backlight" mode compensates incredibly well (saving me a heck-of-a-lotta PhotoShopping as well!)

    If you're looking for a relatively inexpensive camera that's durable and easy to use---and takes great pictures---this is your choice. But... don't drop it in the water!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best Bang for the Buck, October 24, 2006
    By george bancks (ruston, la USA) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Here's my recent camera check list:

    Under $200 - check
    Uses AA Batteries - check (I already use NIMH for almost everything)
    At least 6MP - check (it's got 7MP)
    simple to use - check
    Small - check (It small but not to small for my fat fingers)
    USB connection - check (with easyshare plug it in and it takes off)
    SD media - check (I got 1G 30fps that's over 700 pictures @ 7mp)
    Weight - check (a little over 5 oz empty)
    viewfinder - check (most small cameras don't have one)
    LCD - 2.5 indoor/outdoor viewing better than my last camera
    Panoramic - NO ( the only thing missing)


    I looked at a lot of cameras and I could not find any under $400 which meet all of my criteria. I really liked some other cameras better but they didn't have AA NIMH support or didn't have a viewfinder and sure don't need a $50 battery even if it rechargable. My wife likes it, too. Easy to use so I'm not stuck being the only person able to use it(not meant to be sexist) even my kids can use it and so I'm not to worried if they break it because it under $200. not including the $50 SD card
    I love it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great quality photos!!!, November 14, 2006
    I decided to move from film to digital and after much consideration I decided on this one. This is a great little camera! The pictures are wonderful on camera and when printed with the G600 or my home printer. The camera and printer dock are extremely easy to use. It also comes with a program that allows you to post your photos online and e-mail the to friends and family. This worked out great for me with distant relatives. I also bought a 512mb memory card to go with it.
    ***I do recommend that you use the lithium batteries. The alkalines that came with the camera went within 48 hours of me receiving the camera. (camera would not turn on after being shut off and would shut off on its own before preset shut off) The camera works great with the lithium battery.
    This is a great choice if you want great photos (of the kids) with little effort!
