Summary: No Wonder It Has Won So Many Awards!
Review: Over the past few years I have used a Kodak 2mp digital camera but was never satisfied with the results. I submit a lot of pictures for my eBay auctions and must have clarity of the small details. I tried my sister-in-law's Olympus 4mp camera with 10x lens, but it did not do the trick without a tripod and many adjustments. Finally, I came across this Kodak DX7630 6.1mp and found the ideal camera for my needs. I can take aim and shoot photos, with or without the flash, and I get a great shot most every time. With so many pixels, I can easily crop and zoom in on my desired areas. Editting has never been easier. I bought the extra dock and find it most useful to have my batteries fully charged each time I go to use the camera. Downloading to the computer has never been easier! In essence, the 6.1mp has eliminated the need for telephoto lens for me. You can't ask much more than this out of a simple camera!

Summary: Nice Camera, if it didn't break.
Review: The camera takes great pictures; however, the battery latch broke the second time I took the battery out. I took it back and had it replaced. I was extremely careful with the new camera, but the latch broke a second time. I am taking it back today to get a different camera.

I bought Kodak because I had always thought they had quality products. Not this camera.

Summary: homerun for kodak
Review: this camera really outdoes most of the competition, and when you include the low price and other features, there are no real competitors. kodak offers a 3x optical zoom and has over 6 megapixels for super sharpness, even if you decide to enlarge the picture. also, the camera can grow with you as there are wide angle, telephoto and close-up lenses available through amazon. for quick prints, there is also a nifty printer that does not require any computer. it prints a 4x6 picture in under 2 minutes (also available through amazon). the quality of the print is like a local shop, and the printing method, which uses a protective coating, makes sure the colors last forever (ink-jet printers can run/fade). as an option, local photo shops can print your pictures from the camera or, if you like, you can use a computer.
in sum:
--the price is great, especially for over 6 megapixels.
--kodak is the number one brand for digital cameras. they will be around to supply the camera/your photographic needs. kodak is a trusted u.s. company while some others may not be around in ten years.
--it's easy to use (no computer necessary). but if you have a computer, the camera/printing dock can e-mail photos.
--the camera has a 3x optical zoom -- super sharp pictures with great color of the kids/nature from far away.
some others offer similar features, but nobody has the whole package at this price. a home run!

Summary: very good general purpose camera for most people
Review: This is a very good general purpose camera for those who do not have photography as a hobby. All of the automatic features can be manually overridden when the camera out clevers itself.

One word of warning. Many store sell after market accessory lenses that will not work on this camera. Some mechanically interfere with the zoom, others only slightly change the angle of coverage.

Digital Optics brand have both problems. Kodak brand work properly. The Raynox brand 0.3X also works.

People who are enthusiastic amateur photographers with film cameras and are seriously into it to have several extra lenses will be disappointed with the current state of the art in number of pixels. Those people should wait for 100 megapixel models to become standard.

Summary: Wow!!!
Review: This is one of the greatest deals in digital camera history. In fact the DX7630 is nearly flawless. Let's see: 6.1 mega pixels is far more than any other camera company can offer at a similar price, the display screen is so enormous that it makes me wonder why they even bothered with the optical viewfinder, the German lens is superb in quality, there are more picture modes than I care to remember, the camera does an excellent job of focusing in all lighting situations and at all distances, and the cherry on top is the cool audio profiles.

My one complaint is that 3x optical is a little lacking in my opinion. However once I think about it, the 6.1 mega pixels allows the use of a hefty amount of digital zoom without any noticeable image distortion. So in effect, the camera has about 7-8x optical zoom do to the huge amount of pixels.

This camera is by far the best value in any price range.

Summary: Part broke too!
Review: Too bad the battery lock part broke! It must be a manufacturing defect. I have seen the same issue on other sites.<br /> <br /> I received this camera as a Christmas gift from my husband. It is an upgrade from my previous easy share. It is simple to use and takes great photos. The software is user friendly too.<br /> <br /> Big bang for the buck.<br /> <br /> I am just disappointed that piece broke. You would think a great company like Kodak would have had that problem figured out before they mass produced them. So sad.
