I've had this camera for a little over a year. It will no longer hold a charge, or even turn on. I've tried different chargers to no avail. I'm VERY disappointed in this product, and would not recommend it.




Here is what I like: daytime picture quality, size, battery life.
Dislike: you can't see the screen in the sun, its not bright at all!!
also, HORRIBLE night time picture quality, and i mean really bad.
one more: my old digital camera (canon powershot) had an easy to find power button (it was elevated). in other words, i could stick my hand in my pocket and push the ON button while i was pulling the camera out, which is great for those spontaneous shots. With this camera, I find that i have to pull it out, then find the button, then turn it on. Its just a poor design by Kodak.
Video quality isn't great, and the sound picked up by the mic is pretty bad.
The interface for deleting pictures is awkward too: you have to press the delete button, then move the cursor up to select that you want to delete the picture. after it deletes the picture, it takes you to the next picture and asks if you want to delete it as well, when it should in fact just take you back to picture taking mode, or a plain preview mode.
sorry for the long negative review, but i really am disappointed by this one. I am now buying a new panasonic because i don't dare to take this one with me to a trip out west.


First, I can't stand rechargeable batteries, they never stay charged and when I really need new batteries, I can't just go buy some. But that's very personal, some people have had great experiences with rechargeable.
Second, if the batteries are low, the whole thing shuts down. It can't run the battery to the end of it's life, if it gets low, it won't function. So like you'll take a really great shot and the it will shut down and so you'll turn it back on to see the shot and it's not there. Soooo frustrating!! If it had an option to turn off the LCD screen and just use a viewfinder that would probably help, but wait! there's no viewfinder.
Third, the printing on the buttons rub off. I really don't even remember which button is play back and which one is menu, I just have to keep pressing buttons until I hit the right one. What ever ink or whatever it is they use is really poor quality.
And lastly, don't drop it, take it to the beach, get ANY water near it, or let your kids touch it too much because any little thing will make it not work for a few days, but luckily, it always comes back, when you don't need it.


Who wants a camera that stays on and works? Anyone can buy one of those, as long as it isn't the Kodak M1033.
The ability of it to shut down as soon as it is turned on saves immense battery life!
Never have to worry about charging it, it turns itself off as soon as you try to use it.






What I Really Like:
Great optical zoom. A 36mm-432mm optical zoom means that nothing is out of range with this camera. Combined with the image stabilization feature you can get away with slightly slower shutter speeds at long focal lengths and still get nice pictures.
A multiplicity of modes - As an amateur photographer I like having the ability to set my own shutter and aperture values depending on what I'm doing. At the same time, the availability of a fully automatic mode makes it a camera that is easy to use by anyone. Plus, having sixteen preset modes for special settings (night time shooting, portraits, snow, beach, etc.) is handy if you'd rather not mess with the stop settings yourself. In addition to being able to control the exposure you can also control the flash setting.
Variable Color Settings - This is a relatively simple feature but on the advanced modes you can choose between "Low Color" "Natural Color" "High Color" "Black and White" and "Sepia". This lets you adjust the appearence of your photos as you take them rather than in a photo editing program later. I find that taking a photo in the mode produces better quality that editing it later in a photo editing program.
Multiple Photo Features - Besides the standard self-timer, there are two settings for taking multiple photos. One takes five consecutive photos in rapid succession. The other will take up to 30 consecutive photos in rapid succession and store the last five.
High ISO settings - High ISO settings allows this camera to take photos in low light conditions. While the quality of low light pictures isn't exceptional, they're not awful either.
HD Video - by far my favorite feature is the ability to take 720p video at 30 frames per second. It takes a computer or high definition TV to really appreciate the superior quality of this video. The fact that the sound is stereo is cool, but the quality is about average for a digital camera.
(Update: Since I originally reviewed this I have owned an cheap Aiptek 1080p HD video camera and a Canon Vixia HF10 camcorder. Both blew the video quality of the Z812 out of the water. Just be forewarned, this is in no way a replacement for a video camera).
What I Don't Like: honestly, nothing. There's no major problems with the camera itself. That's being said, there's a few features that would have been nice.
On a camera of this caliber, it would have been nice to add an external flash for low-light conditions
Since this camera is labled has "HD" and takes high definition video, it would have been nice to be able to use a component cable connection to output 720p/1080i video direct from the camera.
Out of the box the camera comes with a disposable battery. The least Kodak could have done was include a rechargeable battery in the box. I ended up purchasing two rechargeable batters and an AC charger for it.
Summary: If you're not quite ready for size or cost reason to go with an SLR but want a high performance camera that includes the ability to take HD video, this is a perfect camera.

The delivery of the package was lightning fast ,well packaged and undamaged. 5 star service.
Highly recomended for quality and service.

I've noticed a lot of problems with the Software however, so here's some quick advice: Do not install the Software. There is a much, much easier way to get your pictures off of your camera. This is how to do in on a Windows computer.
1. Go to Start>>My Computer.
2. A little picture of the camera should appear if you have it plugged into your computer.
3. Just click on the camera and look at the folders. Your pictures should be there.
4. Just drag your pictures into wherever you want to store them on your computer.
Nice and simple, without having to worry about any of the software.

As I start searching for a new camera of course I start with new items, but alas I am miser and I don't want to spend a fortune on something that may break within a year or so. (I will caveat that the last Kodak easyshare was still working great after three years and was still working great until my wife dropped it on the ground at a bowling alley. lens first no less - and that camera had been all over the place, including Egypt).
After searching new I fell upon the idea of refurb - I personnaly have been buying refurb products for the last couple of years and haven't seen any problems. Both my iPods and Macbook Pro are refurbs.
I searched all the Kodak's and Fuji and Panasonic and ended up with the Z812IS. The price was fantastic (under $120 total) and the features were better than the last model. The MP is higher from 6.1 up to 8.2, the Optical focus is up form 10x to 12x, so you can get that much closer. Some of the buttons have changed and it takes a little longer to navigate them. One major improvement is the capability to use AA batteries instead of just the CRV3/or rechargeable Kodak battery (Which I use). If you don't have the rechargeable then I suggest the Energizer Lithium batteries - the best on the market. The one item I do miss is the automatic sport function on the selection knob on top. I have never used the email function. The clarity and ease of use make this a top quality camera for a low low price (refurb only).
For those looking for a high quality camera, easy use camera for technophobes and a cheap camera (refurb) than I highly reccomend this one.
Thanks
