Reviewer: Sea Chelle "still shopper"
I love it. This replaced my other stolen camera and it works great as well
as easy to manage. Just don't hear the video sounds

I LOVE THIS CAMERA!!!!!!, March 21, 2006
Reviewer: Mrs. Forte' (Dena, Calif.)
My husband bought this camera with the printer dock from Walmart for my
birthday because I hated our polaroid digital camera. I love it! The
camera and the printer are so easy to use. I pretty much figured the
camera and the printer out the first day without reading the instruction
manual. The prints are amazing, whether you print directly from the camera
or from your PC. I just ordered a 256MB memory card because I just can't
take enough pictures. The 16MB internal memory was okay in the beginning
but I find myself transferring pictures to my computer way too often. I
would recommend buying the Camera w/the printer dock because not only will
it save you about $50 when you buy the bundle but think about how much you
would spend having someone else develop kodak quality prints for you. The
prints look like they came straight out of a photo processing center.

Very user friendly, March 21, 2006
Reviewer: Jack (NJ USA)
I have to say this is a great camera, especially for someone that doesn't
have a lot of experience. Kodak goes out of it's way to make this as user
friendly as it can. The dial on top allows you to pick what type of
setting (normal, scenic, action, etc.) you are going to be taking pictures
with, the downloading of pictures to the computer is a snap and if you
want to share it with your friends/family online the ease of use to get
the pictures to a webpage using ofoto/kodak.com couldn't be easier. It
takes very nice quality pictures and with a 512MB SD card can hold well
over 600 pictures at 4MP and nearly 30 minutes of video. The video quality
was much better than I anticipated although not great and I thought the
picture quality was outstanding. I was actually able to make out the
individual whiskers on my face after I transferred the picture to my
computer and I zoomed in. Also the battery life was excellent on the
camera, even with experimenting and transferring and deleting and just
generally putzing around they lasted quite awhile.
There are some drawbacks, although it's to be expected for the price, you
do need an SD card, the camera can't even take 20 pictures without one so
make sure you buy one with the camera. The camera is not going to take
rapid fire, pictures. You need to focus on the item for a second with the
button partially held down before pushing it in all the way to get a real
crisp picture and there is about a 2 second wait before the camera is
ready to take another picture. I did get used to that surprisingly quickly
even though I thought it was going to make me dislike the camera at 1st.
If you just try to take quick pictures one right after the other the
quality and focus is off. Once you get the hang of it though. it's a snap
but you do have to be prepared to wait a few seconds between pictures.
IMHO There are better cameras out there but they are going to cost you
quite a bit more from what I found. I think this is a great camera with a
lot of nice features for the price, especially for someone that generally
doesn't like/get along with electronic devices.

Easy to use, March 17, 2006
Reviewer: Susan "SA" 2 years old) but the zoom button came off. Kodak
changed the design of the zoom button, making it smaller and stronger, so
I purchased this updated model. These cameras are so easy to use, with
great picture quality. Their software is also easy to use to enhance your
prints, crop them etc. The recovery time for flashes is instant unlike
other, more expensive, cameras my friends have.

Great Camera, March 13, 2006
Reviewer: Tech100
The Kodak C330 camera is a compact, feature packed digital camera. With
several preset modes the camera is capable of producing good results under
all sorts of lighting conditions. Modes include Macro, landscape and
portrait. Just select the mode that best fits your subject and your all
set. Although the camera has an automatic setting you are still able to
manually overide settings such as EV (exposure value) and ISO speed. Handy
for experimenting. I like the fact that C330's firmware can be upgraded
from a download on the internet, this can help correct any bugs and add
enhancements. The only drawbacks are that the C330 doesn't have a battery
status indicator, however, a battery icon will pop up when the batteries
are just about to quit. Also it would be nice to see a numeric zoom factor
reading on the LCD. Instead there is a simple vertical line marked "w","t"
and "d". There is also an AC adapter jack on the camera for charging NiMH
batteries. I tried the C330 under several different lighting conditions
and the camera did it's best to reproduce the scenes. Color saturation is
excellent. Under daylight and with the flash indoors the C330 produces
vivid, rich colors. The menu navigation is easy to use and learn as well.
Sharing pictures is easy (hence the name) just press the red "share"
button and follow the menu prompts. The camera intergrates well with the
Easyshare computer software and works very smoothly with any Pictbridge
capable printer. Overall the C330 is easy to use, a good price and a
produces great results.
