It's all about the PRICE!!

Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2002

Verified Purchase

I just received my DX3900 four days ago and so far I'm pleased. It is my second digital camera. My first, a Canon Power Shot A50 is still very good and is only 1.3MP. The Kodak is very easy to use and has a few more features than the older Canon. The price [I paid was] less than [what] I paid for the 1.3MP Canon two years ago and better than most new 2MP cameras. I compared lots of cameras before I bought this one. I really wanted an Olympus, Canon, Nikon or Fuji but kept coming back to this one. I bought it mainly for the higher pixel count and especially the price. It doesn't have the features of the others but again, the price was just too good to pass. I really like the optional lenses that can be purchased and I plan to get them ASAP. I'm going to try it on one of my telescopes and hope to capture some good astro-images. I purchased the 128MB card which is a must for this camera because the 8MB card that comes with it holds a miniscule 8 pictures. I will say that it doesn't feel quite as good as the Canon which has a heavier metallic body. The Kodak is plastic but again most of the others I have held lately are also plastic. Also, the display at 1.5" is a bit smaller than the Canon's 2" display. I also find my Canon's card slot and ejection mechanism to be higher quality and I do fear that I'll break the door on the Kodak...but again the price.

Great Camera, but for left-eyed people, maybe not optimal

The price is definitely right. Do your self a favor, get at least a 128 MB CF card with your purchase. At the highest resolution, each picture is almost 1 MB. Also, I would consider either their dock or a CF flash reader for your computer. This thing has no way to hook up an ac adapter, so while transferring pictures, you will be using the battery. If you have a laptop, viking has a nice PC Card adapter that works great. Another thing I am considering is the lens kit for the camera. It is only a 2x optical (but is damn inexpensive) The lens kit includes two close up lens, a telephoto lens, and a wide angle lens, and a case that can hold all this and the camera.
I have taken some close up pictures of my orchid, and the results are amazing. This camera has enough pixels to print out a 20 inch by 30 inch print (from Ofoto or iPhoto) at 72 dpi, which was the standard for computer screen resolution for a long time, IOW, your pictures will look great at poster size.

A++ Camera

Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2002

I just received the Kodak 3900 this week from Amazon.com. Truely impressive. It is easy to use and has so many great picture options. I did not buy the camera dock. Reading previous reviews, which were helpful, made me decide not to buy the camera dock. I bought a flash card reader, AA rechargeable batteries and charger and a camera case. All together was ... less than buying that camera dock. For xmas I got a 64mb flashcard. I recommend spending the extra [money] on that. The pictures are great. The lowest quality pics printed out awesome on my HP printer with matte photo paper. I also have several friends that purchased this Kodak brand and the quality of their prints are excellent.

Wrong camera - wrong price

Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2002

Verified Purchase

I bought this camera two months ago. The pictures are a good quality...except the battery life is horrible. It will only take one set of pictures ( 4 or 5) before the battery goes DEAD. I have contacted Kodak about this problem and their solutions to it are to have it serviced by their representitives. I paid OVER ($$$) for the camers and docking station.....and it has to be fixed???? It also claims that leaving the camera in the docking staion charges the batteries....WRONG.....their technical people said that it actually drains the battery if left in there too long. Well, what good is it???? When the battery goes dead...it will not trasfer pictures through the docking station. All in all it is poor quality with horrible customer service. Try another company for quality.

More Than Expected!

The DX3900 is my second digical camera. Just received it and I am delighted with the picture quality. My computer is three years old and I recently upgraded to Windows Me. I was concerned about attaching the camera, docking station. All worked without a problem. I have only used the camera in the auto mode, but there is so much more you can do with the camera. The camera dock is worth [dollar amount]. Transfer pictures in seconds and what a way to have the DX3900 always charged. I purchased a 128 CF card. The 8 CF card that comes with the camera is useless. I recommend buying the Viking 128 CF card. It works great with the DX3900 and is much less expensive then the Kodak CF card. For [dollar amount] you can not find a better deal or picture quality.

Camera does not work. The switch to turn it on does not work, it does not slide down to turn the camera on. I should have know, based on the price, it was a rip off. This is what I get for being greedy. Camera is going in the trash where it belongs.

Nice, light camera with qood quality pictures

Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2002

Verified Purchase

We just used this camera on a 2 week trip to Montana during which I was able to get a good feel for this camera. Likes: Light, fits in pocket, good quality pictures, I used 2.1 meg most of the time, easy to download to computer, stored lots of photos with my added large memory card. Dislikes: Can't see LCD screen in the sun, the digitial zoom is TERRIBLE--is there a secret to getting a clear photo? I purchased lenses to go with the camera and they worked terrible as well. Otherwise, for good quality simple photos, this is a great camera.
