Strengths: Big 2.5 LCD, Low Price, Small Light...

Weaknesses: Cheaply made, doesn't use the easily available AA batteries, grainy pictures in low light...

Summary: Disappointed - would be the word I would say for this 7 MP camera from Kodak. Even though it is 7 MP, the pictures were grainy when taken in low light or inside the house. The camera body seems filmsy and cheaply made and buttons are hard to use...Although it is a cheap camera for 7 MP and 2.5 inches LCD but my suggestion would be to spend some more $$$ and buy a better camera.

Strengths: Very compact

Weaknesses: Picture quality not good in low light and no AC Adapter.

Summary: The camera is compact and 7.4MP. But the picture quality is not good lacks sharpness. Runs on Li-ion battery but does not come with a AC charger. You need to have a computer to charge or pay extra for the charger.

Strengths: Lithium Ion battery charges while plugged into computer.Very light and compact.Very easy to use.

Weaknesses: Pictures can be grainy, especially in low light.Button kind of small.

Summary: The reason I bought the camera is that its low priced with a Lithium Ion battery that charges through a USB cable meaning there is no separate charger needed (but you can get one) Lithium Ion holds a charge for a lot longer than rechargeable AA NiMH batteries do so the battery won?t be dead when you want to use it after it?s been stored for long periods. Plus it reduces weight because they are smaller but store more energy. For those that want to charge while driving like going on a trip you can get a 12v cigarette lighter type plug to USB for as low as 99 cents so it will be ready to go when you get there. No more constantly switching out dead batteries?..That?s Nice! Spare batteries for this camera are pretty inexpensive at around $10. This is my first Kodak camera and I must say the interface is very intuitive and easy to understand, you could hand it to most anyone and they?d know the majority of the features within a few minutes. Overall it takes good pictures and in auto mode it?s near fool proof. They can be little grainy in low light but if you use the 2 second timer and hold the camera very still (think palace guard) you can get decent shots. The buttons are a little small and a bit too flush to the body for my taste but it makes the camera very compact. Because it?s small, light and plastic it feels almost toy like, you?ll have to decide if that?s a problem. You will need a magnifying glass to see the icons on the mode knob (they hired the guy at the carnival that writes names on a grain of rice to print them) Just look at the screen, the modes are indicated there when you turn it. Overall I?m happy it?s a low priced camera that takes good pictures and it will be charged when I need it.

Strengths: Outstanding product, nice design, easy to use, light weight and great rechargable battery.

Weaknesses: none at this time.

Summary: Great price and comes with a Lithium Ion battery that charges through a USB cable and holds a long charge. Light weight and nice design. This camera like other Kodak

Strengths: Price, large lcd screen

Weaknesses: Alot of noise from ISO 100 and above, uses a rechargeable battery vs. AA (personal preference)

Summary: Not a bad compact for the price. I simply take it of Auto ISO and select ISO 80 for all around picture taking and leave it on auto Flash and the picture quality comes out just fine. I bought it as a gift and had a chance to play with it so I can show my son how to use it.

Strengths: Reasonable price

Weaknesses: No battery charger and AV cable included

Summary: At this price, this camera is the best choice. It has orientation sensor while my DSLR camera doesn't have. The quality of picture is acceptable. The night picture may be a little grainy but it happens the same for all cameras at the price range. The battery charger and AV cable are not so expensive that the manufacturer can't include in the package. They might cost only 2-3$ more. However, you can buy the usb charger from eBay for $5-7.
