5 out of 5 eggsPerfect Camera!

Pros: The user interface is very easy to understand. Very small. Easyshare program is very easy to use. Dock makes it easy to charge and share photos with my PC. Case is inlayed with metal; very stylish and strong. Good weight to it and is balanced.

Cons: My older kodak camera was a little more forgiving(less chance of blur), but with all of the new cameras with higher megapixels, you have to be more steady.

Other Thoughts: Kodak has done it again! Thanks to Newegg also.

4 out of 5 eggsPretty good

Pros: As with any compact camera, this one is hard to hold still, but the image stabilization goes a long way to make up for that. Image quality is fine for consumer-grade photography. In addition to fully automatic and manual controls, it has a wide variety of "scene" modes, which are basically pre-sets optimized for various conditions (sports, landscapes, close-ups, etc.) On a recent vacation, I used the timer and long-exposure setting to take a fantastic shot of the Hong Kong skyline at night. The big LCD makes photo review easy.

Cons: Battery life is short. While on vacation, I was lucky if I got a full day's use out of the battery. I attribute this (in part) to the power drain from the big LCD. Eventually, I learned to disable the LCD between shots. Also, the flash seemed pretty ineffective, as it overexposed the foreground and underexposed the background. Fortunately, the image stabilization allows you to shoot without the flash most of the time.

Other Thoughts: Overall, I'm quite satisfied with this purchase.

5 out of 5 eggsAwesome Camers

Pros: This is one of the best cameras for its price range I have used, you can crop on the camera, and the software for it is very intuitive, and well developed.

Cons: The only thing wrong is that I forget to bring it with me.

Other Thoughts: It almost paid for itself already with the pictures I took with it for items I am selling on an internet auction site I am not allowed to name.

4 out of 5 eggsGreat little Camera w/ a huge LCD!

Pros: Huge 30"x20" pictures, The 2.5" High deffinition LCD is great, I can tell if the picture is in focus or not just with the LCD on the camera. Very small camera, It really is smaller than a deck of cards!

Cons: The Easy-Share software hasn't been able to work on my computer from the CD or from the web download, I've tried all of the trouble-shooting guides online trying and get the software installed but still nothing. The auto focus has a little trouble focusing at under a foot.

Other Thoughts: Great Camera, even with-out the software installed I can still get the pictures on my computer by pulling the SD card out-of the camera and using my card reader, which is really no trouble.
