Summary: Poor quality
Review: The first Kodak Advantix C650 camera I bought did not work out of the box, so Amazon replaced it. The second one I received produced lovely pictures (for about 2 months), but it stopped working in the middle of my Disneyland trip, forcing me to buy one-time-use cameras while there. I have sent the camera in for repair twice and it took 1-2 pictures before ceasing to function again. I lost the cost of the camera, two batteries, the cost of several one-time-use cameras, and the cost of shipping it twice. (I may try sending it one more time in sheer determination to get something for the money I've invested in it.) Although the pictures I took while the camera worked were of fairly high quality and I love the APS film options, this camera itself is of poor quality and it's a good thing it's been discontinued. I'm not likely to buy a Kodak camera again. Buyer beware.

Summary: Great Camera!
Review: This camera is a real plus because of the panoramic choice option! It is quite sleek. And it is at an affortable price. Over all it is a great camera, and one of the best I've seen yet.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Nice Mid-Level Camera
Review: This camera is a very reasonably priced mid-level APS camera. If you haven't used an APS camera before, you will be amazed at the ease. The auto-loading of film is great, and the photo-format selection is very cool. I particularly like the panoramic option. Index prints, instead of negatives, are great.

The Kodak APS is a pretty good APS. It's not a top of the line model, but it is far better than most entry level models. Besides, most people don't need a top of the line camera for family photos. The incremental gain in picture quality is greatly outweighed by the increased cost (I own a higher end APS as well).

The features on this camera are all the features the average person needs.

This is the perfect price point and picture quality for the vast majority of people. If you still own 35mm, step up to APS, the quality and ease is worth it.

Summary: Nice Camera for a nice price
Review: This is a very nice camera. Except in low light, pictures came very nice.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Buy.
Review: This is a well built and adequately featured APS film camera that takes excellent pictures with no fuss. It has some nice touches, like a viewfinder that tells you which of the 3 APS settings is selected (if you've ever gotten a panoramic of something you meant to shoot in standard, you can appreciate what a boon this is) and a standard data imprint. It also encodes your settings for the film processor, which should eliminate some mistakes in developing. All in all, a great deal on a solid camera.

Summary: An easy to use inexpensive camera that takes good pictures
Review: We are very pleased with our camera. Neither of us are photographers by any stretch, but we really enjoy this one because it truly is easy to use and we are getting good results with it.

Summary: Kodak C650
Review: When I bought this camera, I had decided that my bulky, heavy 35 milimeter should be put away for special moments. I needed a camera that was compact, light and easy to pull out of a purse at any given moment and that is exactly what I got when I received this cute little camera. Unfortunately, that didn't last very long. Within one month of ownership, things started going wrong with the camera, the buttons on the top of the camera stopped working and then the memory was lost and an "E" started flashing on the LCD panel. It wouldn't forward the film or take a picture. Since it is all self-functioning, I couldn't even manually open the film compartment to take out the roll that was in there. Needless to say, it was useless at this point, so I had to send it back. I guess you get what you pay for.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good deal for an exceptional APS Camera
Review: When I moved out on my own I only had one little cheap 35mm camera, anyways I ended up giving to my son and decided it was time for a good camera. I searched for weeks for a decent camera with a great price and this is the one I bought. It is really easy to operate and had very good picture quality. In past reviews I have read how people were putting this camera down for the film being more expensive, that is such an exaggeration. I guess its all in how much you want your memories to stand out!It had a red eye point, so that you dont get pics with red eye.(its a lens to look at when you take the photo)

Another great thing about it is the timer, so you can get great shots of the family without having to say "I was the one taking the pic", when your kids ask you why you arent in the family picture! There are several flash options and several focus options. I always use automatic on both because it is easier. The camera is also made to take pics well at night.(Theres a flash option for that). The viewfinder works great and right on, unlike other cameras where you take a pic of someones head and get them developed only to find that you took a pic of hid or her belly! Another plus to the camera is the style, it is small and compact yet made durable and looks great! It takes 4 AA batteries, when you put the film in it will not let you remove it until it is finished rewinding therefore avoiding you from taking it out when you still have pics left!The film is also drop in and drop out, no messing with loading or any [stuff] like that. Umm another thing thats neat is that the date stays on even even when the camera is off.

Kodak is a great brand and honors warranties should anything happen to yours. I hope this help you out!
