Review: I purchased this camera for my parents for an upcoming vacation they were going to take. The overall impression was that it was Kodak, came with a better than average zoom feature, provided different modes of APS picture taking and came with numerous rolls of film.

When the camera arrived, we were all pleased with its size and weight. It is extremly small and fits my mothers small hands and purse great, and it's one of the lightest camera's I've ever held.

The functionality is pretty straight forward: Takes classic (standard), Panoramic, and HD pics (slightly large than standard) on APS film. We were able to set the date and time and take pics within minutes. Came with a wrist strap, battery, and a decent case as well.

However, the first rolls we developed were blurry, clearly the lens was defective upon arrival. We returned the camera and had it repaced with the same model. The pictures turned out excellent, however, the acryllic lens cap was cracked upon arrival. This suggests to me that the lightweight materials and construction may a bit to light weight and fragile for the cost.

The saving grace is that it does have one of the better zoom features, it's size, and the extra film you get with this bundle. Though you get more B&W than color. And despite the slightly cracked lens cover, it takes fabulous pictures for a point and shoot.

The only awkward feature was the lens cap/flash combination. The flash is part of the tilt up lens cover. Of course you must fold up the lens cap/cover anytime you take a picture (flash or not), but it seems like it may possibly be susceptible to accidental damage. Especially if you forget to place the zoom feature back to normal. Takes some getting used to.

Summary: Excellent camera for a great price
Review: I received this camera as a Christmas gift last year. I had done research on the internet and knew I wanted an APS camera with zoom capability. At the time, this camera was very hard to find.

The Kodak Adnvantix C750 has given me the sharpest pictures I've ever had with any instant camera. Close-ups are excellent. In the year I've had the camera, I've been on three vacations and every shot was crystal clear.

The camera is lightweight, compact and easy to use. Great for family shots or vacation pics.

Review: The pictures have been quite good, but.... The camera malfunctioned within the first 3 months of use and had to be sent in for repair. My other complaint is that the battery life is really short. The battery generally lasts for 3-4 rolls of film. In my opinion, that is bad. I am careful to keep the camera "off" when not in use and it has been handled with care. I think it's time I went digial anyway. :-\
