Summary: Easy to use, but fuzzy zoom
Review: This was my first venture into the digital camera arena, so I wanted something easy with high resolution. This camera makes great clear pictures, but DON'T USE THE ZOOM. The digital zoom is always fuzzy. Next time, I will not buy without an optical zoom.The camera dock is great! My wife and kids can use it with no problem. The extra memory is a must. If you take high quality pictures, the 8MB on board is just not sufficient. Bottom line. If you want a good, easy to use, decent quality, reasonably priced digital camera without a zoom, this camera is for you.

Summary: devolops great quality pictures
Review: I am so pleased with how well the pictures devolop. I have had so many compliments from people on the quality. So detailed. Also the camera is easy to use. The only problem is I can't get the battery to last very long.

Summary: I feel like a professional...
Review: I am not a professional photographer, but I feel like one when I use my Kodak DX 3500 camera and docking station. The docking station is a definite plus. I can easily upload the photos and then crop and/or make other changes with Kodak's software or with other computer software (presently MS PhotoDraw 2000 V2, but advancing to Adobe PhotoShop 7.0). I also have the CompactFlash Memory Cards to take more photos at higher resolution while away from my computer. I haven't come across a portable battery charger for this camera (the batteries will quickly run low within a week), but I've taken the docking station and used it as a charger while away from my computer for an extended period of time (it doesn't charge the batteries on its own; it needs a 110 electrical outlet), but that seems to fill the need. I'm sure there are more updated cameras since I bought this one this last year, but it still meets all of my needs very well.

Summary: Good camera, Support bad, dock flawed
Review: I really love the camera because of its simplicity. But the dock that goes with it has some problems. i cant transfer the pictures and the camera disappears from the device manager. When i called Kodak Support, they were mumbling so i couldnt hear them. Then, when i was finally transferred to Technical Support, the people kept on shouting at me. Finally, I got it fixed, only to find out the same problem happened again. Support Hours are only 5 days a week and its bad support.
I rated it 4 stars though since of its ease and simplicity. But i am not buying from Kodak again. Most likely, I'm going to go for an HP.

Summary: $-comparison between KodakDX3500 and HP318
Review: I've bought two camaras; Kodak's DX3500 and HP's 318.
DX3500
HP318
(at [a local store], 2/19/2002) I feel the quality, ease of use, looks, ect. are about the same(or read more articles here for other opinions). The only difference for me is that DX3500 does NOT accept regular alkaline-AA batteries while HP318 does. therefore, DX3500 will cost you extra money... All up to your habit. If you take lots of pics weekly you may prefer DX3500 w/ dock. Or if you use it only twice per year(vacation) like myself, HP318 w/ regular AA's may be smart. I'd like to give 4 stars to DX3500, 4.1 stars to HP318.

Summary: Battery Life
Review: I got the DX3500 for Christmas and I'm VERY pleased with it. I have a real nice Nikon camera for sale now. The only thing I have against this product is the short battery life. I guess it takes a lot more juice to run digital. I think I will invest in a camera dock for rechargable batteries. I have been looking at the DX3900 from Costco ... and that comes with a dock and rechargable batteries, but for now I'm having fun with my new toy. I wish I had something like this when I was in the Navy many years ago. One thing about it is I can rephotograph old pics and send them email. Too cheap to buy a scanner.:)

Summary: High quality, simple to use
Review: I received my camera as a Christmas gift. It's my first digital camera. It is nice looking and surprisingly light. I'm a novice user, and getting started with the camera is a piece of cake. I was taking pictures before the presents were all unwrapped. I also reveived the dock that's used to download pictures into my computer. This is a must have. It is unbelievably simple. Literally put the camera on the dock, and press one button, and the system does the rest. The Kodak software opens, and the pictures are displayed right in front of you. Picture quality is outstanding. I think 2.2 megapixels is plenty. I've printed out 8x10s, and they come out sharp.Here's an unforseen serendipity: It feels great having the freedom to snap away, and just delete the pictures I don't want instantly. The feeling of losing that tense, "make every picture count" feeling you get with a regular camera is beautifully liberating. Which leads me to another must have: an external memory card to insert into the camera. This will increase the amount of pictures you can take from about 20 with just the camera alone to about 50 for the smallest memory card. They're fairly inexpensive and well worth it. Downside: The camera has a digital zoom, but no optical zoom. In other words the lens doesn't physically extend when I want to zoom. I press a button, and it will zoom digitally. But in order to see how close you're getting using the digital zoom, you must look at the LCD screen, and not the viewfinder, which requires pulling the camera away from you face. It's awkward, and I would GLADLY pay the extra money for the next model up with the optical zoom. Great quality camera, simple simple simple to use.

Summary: Great Camera/Poor software
Review: This camera is the greatest!! Very fast transfer of photos from camera to computer. Longer battery life than other digital cameras. Very simple to operate. Very good quality of photos. User friendly. The software to download from camera to computer is fast and simple. The Kodak Photo software that comes with it is terrible. No option to delete photos you don't want without going to hard drive, finding file and deleting. Don't understand why there is not a delete option in the software. I use a different program for editing photos. Also, no option to easily reduce pixels or size in their software.
