Summary: Good for price...However...
Review: For the price, this is a pretty good camera. Extremely light, and has great options like the 3 picture options(C,P,H); and a good 2x zoom. However, I have found that in low light situations the flash tends to "white-out" people, and it's also not very sharp (tends to be blurry). Bright light (most outdoor) turns-the sky-washed out. Most pictures turn out OK, but I've had a bunch of blurry landscapes and problems with night/indoor scenes.

Summary: everything is great except...
Review: I am planning an overseas trip this winter, so I figured that I should buy a new camera. Something that is small, compact, and great quality. Which this particular camera is, with no doubt. There is just one major flaw in the camera. When you use the self timer, the glare from the red indicator light appears on the lower half of all photos. I have had good luck with Kodak for years, and I don't think this is a reflection on the other cameras they have, just this particular model.

Summary: Awesome Camera
Review: I am very pleased with this camera. When I bought it I was not sure about it but now that I have had it since last summer, I have liked it a great amount. I took it with me to the Black Hills and have taken many pictures with it. One good thing is that it doesn't eat up batteries, it has a self timer, fill-in flash, date imprinting,and 2x zoom. If you want a camera, then this is one to get!

Summary: My daughter loves this camera
Review: I bought this camera as an 'after birthday' birthday gift for my teenaged daughter. It has accompanied her to slumber parties, football games, school functions, and will go to the pool and on vacation next summer. So far she has had no complaints about either the camera or the pictures. The picture quality is far greater that the cost of the camera might suggest. I chose the camera because of the price and am very pleased with the quality. An added bonus is the ease of use--like most teenagers (and most adults, also) my daughter does not want to be bothered by complicated and unnecessarily hard to follow instructions. This camera gives the user neither.

Summary: Cute, but poor quality pictures make it a thumbs-down
Review: I decided to buy this camera when my reliable Canon 35mm died after 10 years of service. I had heard that APS cameras did not produce as clear pictures as 35mm, but I didn't expect such poor quality from this camera. Practically every single picture I took was blurry, almost to the point where you could barely make out people's features! The pictures I got were embarassing; I consider myself a pretty good amateur shot, but these pictures I'm ashamed to show.

And the lighting didn't matter - outdoor, indoor, dark, floodlights: they were all poor-quality pictures. I do like the zoom aspect and the lightweight quality of this camera. I also like the flexibility of panoramic, HDTV, and classic settings. But I've decided I want those size pictures, I'll blow up 35mm shots and chop them to the corresponding size. They'll be clearer that way.

My recommendation is to spend your money on a 35mm, at least until the picture quality improves (and the price for processing goes down; I was shocked at how much APS film costs to process - and the quality is only half as good!). I'm now on the lookout for a new 35mm.

Summary: good camera
Review: I got one of these cameras as a present for my high school graduation, just in time for my senior trip to New York City. It was a great camera that took wonderful pictures; I loved the low-light flash option (when I remembered to use it). Mine was stolen just over a year ago and I've been looking for another but haven't been able to find one until now.

Summary: Excellent camera, for an excellent price!
Review: I have recently recieved this Kodak C650 Advantix camera. It is really great! When you turn the camera on, the lens' comes out and the flash pops up. It is very simple to use. It has a decent 2x zoom (although you can find better zooms in this price range), it features a title imprinting, a date (or time) imprinting, a self timer, a pop up flash (to reduce red-eye), 3 print formats, and much more. Even when the camera is off, it shows the date and time on the LCD screen. I definitely recomment this camera.
