Summary: It's Great~
Review: I read all the reviews that said for the money the DC3400 was rated as the best camera on the market. They were right on the money. The quality of the pictures (even the 8x10's) are incredible. The only thing you must learn is how to compose in the view finder. It has a very user friendly menu that you will master in no time. Highly recommend this product. Two recommendations though: 1. Buy the Nickel-Metal Hydride rechargeable batteries and buy the largest memory card you can afford so you don't have to continually download pictures especially if you are on vacation and not near your laptop or desktop computer.

Summary: Great overall, slow at taking many pictures in a row
Review: I bought this last christmas and it works great. The picture quality is awesome. However, you can't take a lot of pictures quickly and the camera sounds are not very clear on whether you took the picture or not. If you are trying to get action shots, it doesn't work that well. Other than that I love it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: High quality pictures, exceptional value
Review: The DC3400 was my first digital camera, and having had it for several months, I can truly say it has outperformed my expectations. The picture quality is terrific, even at the lower resolution settings, allowing you to 'dial in' for your needs - lower resolution for webpages/email, higher resolution for photo prints, etc.

We recently attended a wedding, and with my 128mb CF card, I took over 130 pictures, several of which the bride liked better than her professional photographer's version.

My mom recently bought the DC3400EZ, and has been just as pleased. Kodak hit the mark with this camera.

Summary: Best gift, ever!
Review: I bought this camera for my husband's birthday and wanted to make it a surprise but he was too impatient;-) He wanted to buy a digital camera so we could take pictures of beautiful Colorado and I had to give it to him before the day. He has never been happier with a gift. Needless to say, we have been using it non-stop. Its the handiest camera, has great picture quality, easy to use controls and a decent zoom lens. We've taken hundered of pictures in six months, with extra-sharp clarity using the high resolution. Had to buy a 64mb card though to fully utilize the camera, the 8mb it comes with is not sufficient. It is so easy to take, manipulate and share pictures with this camera and they turn out very good. We've got some pictures printed and their quality is comparable to any good 35mm film photos. I haven't touched my 35mm camera since we got the digital, we absolutely love it!

Summary: Quick an easy
Review: Right out of the box this camera is simple to use in automatic mode. Great 8" X 10" digital photos! The software loaded up without a hitch. Transfering pictures from camera to PC via my existing Adobe program is great. Be ware this little puppy eats batteries! a couple of days of experimenting and about 36 high resolution images and I had to load up new batteries. I could not see spending for features I would likely not use.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Sweet Camera
Review: I bought this camera 5 months ago and am pretty satisfied with it. The pictures it takes is of very high quality and it compresses it to JPEG by default. There is also a million options you can tinker with the get the picture you want. Do yourself a favor and pick yourself up a 64+ Meg Compact Flash Card, NIMH Rechargable Batteries and Charger plus a Kodak Lens Cleaning Pen. You will definitely need all of it. My only gripe about this camera is that it is kinda heavy and also the lens cap keeps on falling off.

Summary: I *LOVE* this camera!
Review: I'm just an amateur when it comes to photography. All I really want is an easy-to-use point-and-shoot camera that I can take on vacations to snap shots of places I find interesting, to use around the house to take photos of valuables for insurance purposes, etc. In other words, my expectations are pretty minimal.

That said, I'm extremely happy with the Kodak DC3400. This is my second Kodak digital (my first was a DC240), so obviously I'm pleased with the Kodak product line.

After unpacking the DC3400, I spent about 10 minutes getting it set up, and proceeded to take a few pictures. Another 10 minutes or so, and I had the photo software loaded on my laptop. Connect the USB cable, and I was able to load the photos onto the laptop immediately. The camera shows up as an icon, like a disk drive, which you can double-click to open and transfer the pictures to a folder on your hard drive -- piece of cake!

The quality of the pictures is amazing. I use the Ofoto service, and had some prints of some of my digital photos sent to my mother. According to her, you could not tell the difference between the digital images and those taken with a 35mm film camera. The colors were vivid, the images sharp -- just what you'd expect from the Kodak name.

I'll agree with most everyone else and say that batteries might be the only downside to this camera. It's definitely worth the investment to get the Kodak NiMh rechargables and the charger. The ONLY time I use NiCads is when I'm my NiMh set is in the recharger, and I need to snap a few pictures.

For the money, I don't think you can top this camera in terms of features, quality, and ease of use.

Summary: Very satisfied
Review: My 4yr old Power Mac was one criterion for my camera choice--I needed serial port compatibility and the DC3400 includes the needed cable and adapter. The CD software loaded without a problem and, once I inserted the transfer cable plug fully into the camera (it is a good fit), image transfer proceded without further error messages. I was able to learn everything I needed to make this choice from the Amazon website, from what features to look for, to which cameras have them, so I added the AC adapter and Ni-MH batteries and charger to the order. The DC3400 is in my price range, and as a "serious amateur" photographer, I think it will do everything I want.

Summary: Disappointed
Review: Initially, I was very happy with this camera. It was very user friendly, and the picture quality was better than I had expected. However, after less than 3 months of regular use, the camera began to read brand new AA Alkaline batteries as dead. Eventually, it failed all together, and wiped out all the pictures stored on the memory card in the camera. After numerous lengthy conversations with several Kodak representatives (most of whom insisted I must be putting dead batteries into the camera, that there couldnt be a problem with the camera itself), I was provided with a replacement camera...which failed right out of the box. The manual says the camera will operate with a "variety of AA Batteries", but this was not the case in my situation. I am disappointed with the camera, and the company. I thought that I was investing in a quality item with a company that would stand behind its product, but I was mistaken. Perhaps I just got ahold of two lemons in a row, but I still cannot recommend this product.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Cool. I love it.
Review: This is my second digital camera and I think it would be the best choice. It does drain your batteries quilckly if you use the LCD too much. It has amazing quality and with the A/V cable included, you can present a slideshow on TV. It is incredibly awsome for first time users. It is really cool and easy to use. You must buy this one.
