I need to know how to return the inoperateable one. Thank You
blah blah blah
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.

---FLAWS---
1. Touch Screen: Although I bought it partly because I liked the idea of a touch screen camera, this is probably the part of the camera I find the most problem with. For one, after having the camera for over two years, the oils from your fingers (even though I am obsessive about keeping the screen clean and oil free) makes the screen difficult to see, especially outside in the sun. Even on day one it was difficult to see in the sun. There are no benefits to having a touch screen on this camera that would not exist with a normal screen.
2. HD Video: The video quality is great, better than I could have ever imagined, however if you have the settings at "Continuous Auto Focus" you can hear the lens clicking, moving in and out, and trying to focus on whatever is in view. This sound is present and very obvious when you play back your video. You still hear the main audio you are trying to capture, however there is this constant noise of the auto focus.
That's it, those are my only problems with this camera! It did finally begin to break a month ago, but still works well enough. The touch screen stopped working for a day or two (I got so nervous, thought I would need to find another camera) but came back randomly and I haven't had a problem with it since. Also, my zoom is permanently broken. I didn't abuse it in any way, however it does not allow me to zoom out. To get around this problem, if I have zoomed in but want to revert to the full view, I shut the camera off and turn it back on, which solves the problem in a roundabout sort of way.
Now I'd like to share with you my...
---FAVORITE FEATURES---
1. Image Quality: If you want examples, take a look at my Photostream on Flickr (my username is brmibi) 90% of the photos I have uploaded are taken with this camera. Don't get me wrong, if you are naturally not great at photography, this will not be an overnight fix and jump start you into a photographic career. It will however take what you already know about composing a great shot and help you out a little. If you have the money, yes there are better cameras out there, ones that don't fit in your pocket and cost ten times the amount of this. If you are in this price range however, I believe this is one of the better cameras for image quality that you can buy.
2. Portability: Obviously, point and shoot cameras are very portable. Even if you own a bulky, nice DSLR, this might be something you are interested in. Keep it in your pocket or car, take it on vacations so if you do drop it, you aren't dropping a $1500 camera body with a $400 lens (by the way, I've dropped this quite a few times before and it is still working well).
In closing, I just want to say a few final words about Kodak as a whole. What really frustrates me is when people see me holding this camera and tell me "I hate Kodaks." Do you really? Or are you familiar with their lower end products, so you verbally announce that you dislike the camera brand because to you it is synonymous with low quality cameras? These same people see my photos in awe and ask what camera I am using "nowadays." I tell them, and suddenly the photo isn't as good in their eyes because of the name. It just frustrates me, and I wanted to tell you not to discredit a camera because of the name on it. Go to your local electronics department and see if they have this camera. Look at it, take some sample pictures, and decide for yourself if you like it.
Not too much you can say about a charger however quality is fine and it works!
So far, I really like the red camera. Haven't had time to get pictures processed. Wanda Sipes
