Summary: simple so far
Review: I just got this camera from Amazon. At first, I was nervous. The camera is very small and light -- it felt... cheap. I loaded up the software (Windows 98) without a problem. I was able to take pics the first day, upload them, edit them, and email them. The pictures were really quite good -- I wouldn't consider paying hundreds for more expensive cameras -- it's not worth it. The free 32 MB card (offer from Amazon which might have expired) lets me take about 35 pics at the best quality.
Cons: the LCD screen is really pretty small and the editing software is really basic. But it lets you email people right away and sends them at low resolution so your friends won't have to download gigantic files when they open your email.

I am mostly pleased so far. I did not want to spend big $ and I feel I definitely got my money's worth -- $... for the camera and the free 32 MB secure digital card. Also -- I was able to connect to my TV and view pics there without a problem.

Kodak EasyShare is definitely Easy. I don't have a Dock and won't buy one -- that's just unnecessary.

This is a very good First Camera to buy for those on a budget but want pics that look clean, crisp, and that are easy to take/edit/email.

Summary: Great camera
Review: Compact, light, and does it all. About the only thing about it that I don't like is that it takes a second or two from button-press to capture -- which makes it hard to catch a moment sometimes. But otherwise it's a great camera. Good battery life, nice bright screen, and crisp big pictures.

Summary: Great Camera, especially for the price!
Review: I got my camera a couple of days ago and I am Super Duper happy with it. the pictures are excellent, And the battery consumption is not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. I've taken at least 60 pics(most with flash) with rechargeable NiMH 1800mAh batteries and eventhough the low battery indicator is flashing, it's still taking pictures(w/flash)....I definately recommend this camera to anyone!

Summary: Camera software problems on some computers running WindowsXP
Review: I have a different model Kodak camera, however they all use the same EasyShare software. Running Windows XP, I could not get the software to work properly. After several hours on the phone with Kodak tech support, they couldn't get it working either.

They said they are aware of the problem on some computers running Windows XP. It is now several months later and they still don't have a fix. They don't really seem to care either.

It might not be a bad idea to consider other brands, instead of Kodak. Since, if the software won't work properly, then what good is the camera?

Summary: get what you pay for
Review: I got this camera about three weeks ago, and so far it works great. I haven't used it heavily, but what pictures I've taken have come out great on the computer. The pictures are surprisingly detailed, colorful, and smooth. I originally wanted a DX3400 (4300?) because I wanted finely detailed pictures, but the price was way too high for my budget. I'm glad I decided to go for this one, though, because honestly, I don't think I would have been able to tell a difference between the pictures from this camera and the DX. I also didn't expect the camera to be this small and light... My only gripes would have to be that the batteries exhaust themselves pretty quickly. After having taken about 30 pictures, the batteries that came with the camera are half gone. Also, there's a small delay between pressing the button and the actual picture being taken. All in all, though, the camera was a pretty good deal. ...

Summary: Great little camera
Review: Being digital novices, we wanted our first camera to be easy to use, inexpensive, and give great photos. The Kodak CX4200 does all that. The Easyshare dock is just that - easy. No headaches, no problems, just easy transfer and high quality photos. No matter what format you prefer, from wallet-size to full page wallpaper for your computer, the pictures remain clear and crisp. I'm a die-hard 35mm film user, but I have to admit, this little "snapshop" digital does a great job...and without film!

Summary: Can it get any easier?
Review: My husband and I purchased an Olympus c730 for Christmas, and although it is a fantastic camera, it is a bit too much for ME. for a Valentine's day present my husband gave me the Kodak CX4200. What a dandy little thing. It's as simple as they come, just point, shoot, connect it to computer and download. It can't get any easier. Plus it is very light an comfortable. A great purchase!

Summary: Camera Review
Review: I got this camera for Christmas and I haven't put it down since then. It is one of the easiest things to learn how to use and is very user friendly. Downloading and emailing pictures is even easier than learning to use the camera. I recommend buying a set of Kodak rechargable batteries and a charger. It's not very expensive and it will pay off. So far I've had a lot of luck with this camera and have found that almost anyone can use it... even if you have no experience with this type of thing. The Kodak Easyshare software is great. Especially to enhance photos and completely get rid of red eye. I am very satisfied with this prduct and I hope that future buyers will take this into consideration.

Summary: Very Happy
Review: I received this camera as a gift. I wanted a new digital camera since my last one had 640x480 res. and the pictures were not that great to say the least. I have a new son and we were taking lots of pictures to email to family members. I just love this camera. The docking cradle is a must. This camera has rechargeable batteries that charge in the docking cradle. And the pictures tranfer at the touch of a button. This is so much easier than the last camera I had. The quality of the pictures is great, good exposure, the flash set to auto works well, not too bright. The only negative thing I would have to say is the LCD screen does not work well in low light, but I have no problem dealing with that. This is a good 2MP camera at a good price. Definitely invest in the docking cradle to go with it.
