Summary: Fun little camera.
Review: For a hundred bucks you can't beat this little camera. It's up and running within minutes of leaving the box, and setting it up to transfer the pictures to a computer was very simple (in fact, user error was the only misstep in the entire process; make sure those cables are snug...).The picture quality was surprisingly high, which is a nice bonus. My only quibble is the internal memory isn't very roomy (8 pictures on "Best" quality, 30 on "Good," which is the lowest). But, media cards are getting quite cheap nowadays, and since I planned on purchasing one anyway, it's not that big of a deal (the 128 MB card will hold 149/595 respectively). Overall it's a nice beginner digital camera -- enough options to take good pictures, not so much that they'll overwhelm the user.

Summary: Great camera for the price
Review: This is my first digital camera and at $100, I figured at that price it was worth trying. It is well worth the price, the camera takes good pictures overall. It takes excellent pictures if the lighting is good, but gets pretty grainy on indoor shots if the lighting is not great. All the outdoor shots I have taken have come out excellent and require little to no color correcting. The camera has a video option with no sound, and you can record video up to your amount of memory. If you use the LCD review screen often, it will eat up the batteries quick. Using the viewfinder to take photos will help battery life significantly. The camera has no optical zoom and I found pictures using the digital zoom to be quite grainy, so I don't use it for the most part. The camera also doesn't have a lens cover, which would be a nice thing to have been added to the camera. As another reviewer said, if you have Windows 2000 with SP4, you might run into problems with the Easy Share software. I had trouble installing the software on 2 different machines. Just make sure to get the newest software from the website (version 3.2 at time of this review). Also, make sure you are logged in as Administrator, I had problems installing the software logged in with an account with administrator priveledges. Overall, if you are looking for a basic point and shoot digital camera that takes good pictures, it is well worth the money. I have tremendously enjoyed the camera.

Summary: Good photos/digital movies, BAD computer connection
Review: The photos this camera takes are of high quality, and I would probably rate them as a 5. For the movies I would probably give a 4 because although the images are good there's no sound. But the REAL problem with the camera is the software that is given to you (the Kodak Easyshare program.) I would probably give the computer connection a 1. The whole point of the camera is to put all of the photos/movies onto the computer. Whenever the camera is full of photos and movies and is hooked up to an IMac and turned on, the Kodak file opens up but it always says "no pictures on device". Then if you go to Iphoto, it'll let you transfer the photos, but not the movies, which means the movies have nowhere to go. So the only way to get all of your photos onto the Kodak system is by importing them in from Iphoto. Every once in the while the Kodak transfer system works ONCE, and then stops working, so the way in which the transfer system works is pretty random. Even though the software stinks, if you are willing to deal with it for good photos, then you should buy it.

Summary: two camera for two teens for Christmas
Review: I wanted to purchase a digital camera for my daughters ages 15 and 17. It needed to be simple enough to use with a short learning curve on the software and cheap enough to buy that I wouldn't mind them taking it everywhere or be upset when the day comes that it is lost or broken. I read all the reviews on this site and they were SOOOOOOOOO helpful. I decided on this camera based on that information...bought some insightful accesories also mentioned in the user reviews and packed them up upon arrival for Christmas morning. The cameras were a huge hit. They were wonderful. Without reading the directions the girls had taken pictures, e-mailed them to friends, edited out the red-eye, made movies, screensavers, slide shows, and used up the extra batteries (I need to buy the rechargeables...do it right away.!!!)all this activity in under 24 hours. Since the kids will not be printing out any or many pictures the 2mega pixel camera is just fine. I am satisfied that we will never have to wait to see their photos, pay for film, wait for developing and labor over photo albums ever again. We are very happy with the camera. Thanks to all who reviewed this before me...it made all the difference.

Summary: Nice Digicam for price!
Review: First things first; this is a wonderful digital camera for about a hundred bucks, great for someone who wants a very simple point and shoot camera. I am writing my review based upon it's cost to value performance. I bought the Kodak cx6200 to experiment and have a bit of fun, I must admit it's a fun little camera. Come to think of it, this reminds me of the fun I had with my first film camera (as a pre-teen) about 30 years ago. Funny, it also was a Kodak, an X15 (126 cassette film) camera to be exact. After 30+ years it still works, I've kept it mostly for sentimental reasons. If you want the performance of a high-end digital camera, spend the big bucks and go buy one. This camera is not for the life-lacking Techno whiner who expects to get thousand-dollar performance for less than a hundred bucks. If you want a wonderfully simple to use camera that takes excellent pictures (flawlessly up to 5x7) with great software, buy the Kodak cx6200. Pros: 1. Very good battery life, I've taken 75+ pictures (25 with flash) on the first charging of my rechargeable AA's (not included).
2. Excellent software (simple to use, very effective).
3. Great color reproduction (Kodak science), sharp images, effective little flash.
4. Simple to use, I've still not had to read the instructions (and this is my first digital camera).
5. Fairly small, can be carried in a shirt pocket.
6. Affordable, I'm not scared to take it with me wherever I go, I don't think I'd have the same opinion if it were a more expensive model. I don't like to throw a thousand dollar camera in a canoe, in the glove box of my car, or in a bike pack. Cons: It is what is; no optical zoom, not too many bells and whistles, but this little camera offers significant utility for about a hundred bucks.

Summary: A great beginning
Review: I've been a lousy (but dedicated) photo hobbyist for more than 30 years. Highly complicated cameras are great... but I always find myself doing most work on point-&-shoot cameras. Last year, when my 1960s-era Fuji started to fall apart, I spent $20 on a Fuji Smart Shot 35mm. I was all set to drop $400 on a digital camera, so that I could finally move into the 1990s, as well as post & send photos without having to scan them. I got overwhelmed by all the questions, though: how many mp? what memory format? how much zoom? optical or electronic? movies? audio? I was all set to give up the hunt & stick with 35mm, then I was buying office supplies & the CX6200 was on sale. Sure, hardly top-of-the-line. Sorta fragile... like my Fuji. My biggest -- & so far only -- gripe is that the Kodak doesn't have any sort of lens cover. I mean, come *on*, people, a camera that can't even take a rubber lens cap??? In all, if it only lasts a year, I figure the 6200 is a good investment. Between buying film & having it developed, I spend at least $80 a year, only to discard more than half the photos as necessary waste in getting what I want. It's a good camera for point-&-shoot use, yet also gives me a little flexibility as far as image quality, & the redeye-reduction feature has thus far been perfect. Accessorize!! I'd recommend that you get a decent memory card (the 64mb seems to strike a nice balance for me between cost & storage), a NiMH battery kit (or a Kodak dock if you find a good price), & a $10 case. The Kodak software has its minuses, but I'd say to skip the cutesy bells&whistles, just buy an inexpensive USB reader.

Summary: Great Little Camera
Review: I really liked the camera, small, easy to use and afordable, but for the price, I would buy the Easyshare 6230, that cames with optical zoom, records movies with sound and have more memory(16mb instead of 8mb).
The only complaints I have for the camera are that it doesn't record movies with sound, doesnt't have a protection for the lens and the back lcd is too dark in dark places, making you have to guess where are the things you want to take the picture.
But for the price, it is a great camera...

Summary: A Great Camera!
Review: I got this camera for Christmas last year and it is the best! It's pictures turn out like they would on a 4.0 mgapixel camera! They took one great camera and simplified it to make it really easy to use. The editing software is ok, but the great deal about it is it is user friendly and you can upgrade youre software for free! I got amazing pictures of my trip to Arizona with it. If you want a great camera get this one!

Summary: Ok
Review: The camera is great, but the software is really annoying. If you have network it's terrible, you basically have to call customer service in order to get the software to work anyway. But overall the camera takes good pictures, after setup and installation it's easy to e-mail pictures.

Summary: Great Camera...Poor Software
Review: This is a good camera, simple to use. Easy to use menu, easy to use camera. I was able to take all kinds of pictures without using the cd manual. Problems with the Easy-share software...it won't work. I would recommend, especially if using XP, to just go to the website and download the driver only, not the easy share software. Use other ways of pulling the pictures off the camera, it should show up as an extra drive. Don't even use the cd, but be sure to download the drivers first. It is easy to use, and fun too. The screen works great and the camera is a good size.
