Summary: I had better luck
Review: I purchased this camera before leaving for a business trip to Hawaii. The pictures I e-mailed came out clear and beautiful, and I love the rechargable docking station. I found it very easy to down load the pictures as well. The only drawback is that the LCD screen on the back of the camera is small and is a bit unclear, but the pictures turn out beautiful. I did a lot of research and found this camera to be the best deal for the cost.....

Summary: Nice Camera for the Money
Review: I read the first two reviews and feel terrible that these two poor souls had so much trouble. I used it for several days before sending it on to my daughter in California and the pre-charged battery shot 60 pictures with no sign of slowing down. The pictures were terrific for a 2.2MP camera -- sharp, decent color, and they enlarged to 5x7 flawlessly. I use an inexpensive Canon S600 printer, so it isn't like the printer could have made up for poor image quality.I have owned a Kodak DC4800 for 18 months and have had great results so I didn't hesitate to buy another Kodak, and I was not disappointed with the CX4230. It's a great starter camera for the budding digital photographer and I have recommended it to my friends who went right out and purchased one. So far they say love theirs, too. The only big drawback is that the battery didn't come with an adapter that lets you charge it in the camera, which the DC4800 does. Apparently, you have to purchase an expensive docking station -- a useless thing since you can upload pictures with the USB cable that comes with it. A $$... or $$... power adapter would have been a reasonable thing to include. That is all that keeps me from giving it the full five stars.

Summary: Good from far...but far from good
Review: I wanted a simple to use camera to take snapshots of the kids around the house. I did not care about printing photos, just wanted to email pics to family and friends. Out of the box, the camera has some cool features such as auto-orientation and the menu is not too hard to navigate. The Kodak software makes the storage and manipulation of the pictures easy, but getting the pictures from the camera to the PC is not so fun. About 75% of the time I have a problem with transferring pictures. Usually a reboot and a disconnect/reconnect of the camera does the trick. I took the camera back after a few weeks and they gave me a replacement and there was no difference. The other part that they do not tell you is that you need to use a SecureDisk card to hold the pictures to make the camera function somewhat normal. Do not rely on the internal memory. Last night I returned from a trip to Florida with the family and lost over half of the pictures. Hence I am writing this review to warn any future buyers of this camera. There are so many newer/better cameras out there now, I would not recommend purchasing this camera at all.

Summary: EasyShare is Easy
Review: My friend had this camera so I was able to use it before purchasing it. Once I purchased it, I found it a wonderful camera. The zoom is exceptional, which enables you to get very close to your subject. You can even zoom a picture after it has been taken. The pictures are exceptional, so if you are debating with going with higher megapixels, I do not think you will be disappointed with a 2.0 unless you are a professional. I also purchased the docking station which is very simple, however, if you are real comfortable with computers and uploading items, you won't really need this. I also purchased the camera case, rechargeable batteries, and a memory card. I am very satisifed with all those as well. I have found that it is a little difficult to photograph children due to their quick movement. But, you are able to set the camera (very easily) to a live mode which enables you to see with the view screen what you are photographing, which is much easier than trying to view it through the small eye window. If some of you are purchasing this camera mainly to photograph children, this is still a great camera. Just don't try to catch them running around. There are ways to adjust the shutter speed, but I haven't even needed to read the manual yet. I have Windows XP and I have not had any problems at all with software. I recommend you double check the operating software requirements before purchasing. Windows XP has some bugs, but that is not entirely Kodak's fault. I recommend this camera to anyone who is a beginner with digital photography. You will have lots of fun!

Never had any problems from the start. itt just takes some reading and we were getting perfect pictures from the start. I recommemd it to anyone for ease of use, design and all the features it comes with.

Summary: Has its moods but works fair
Review: The quality of pictures - which is the most important factor for me - is excellent. Taking pictures during a sunny day is a pure pleasure.
I admit sometimes it acts weird when you want to transfer pictures using either docking station or by a direct connection, but i tried both ways - they work fine.
Sometimes I'm having problems when I turn this camera on - I guess it's the batteries - but have to see it again.
And because I live in Poland I'm using this camera with an adapter (220V) and I don't have any problems with power or charging batteries.
In general, I'm satisfied with Kodak CX4230. Added (Oct, 2003): It turns off on its own.. You have to hit it to turn it on... Poor thing..

Summary: Connectuon Problems
Review: This camera works for three months and then ceases to fully cooperate.
It stopped transfering pictures tellin me there is no device present.I concluded it was a power supply issue. And after reading some reviews, I know now that i am correct.
I dont feel like having to buy more batteries, and by the looks of the other reviews, I know what I have to expect in the future: More Problems
