Summary: Awesome value - very user friendly
Review: Bought the camera mid-June, and by late June was covering a national convention requiring daily uploads to webpages. Got rave reviews of the images shared. The USB connection is easy and fast. I found it handled indoor shots without flash with outstanding resolution.It has also produced some excellent outdoor shots, including some sky photography (sunsets) that rival film versions. One does not need to employ the top setting to produce extremely good pictures, maximizing the number of photos on a single compact flash card. It came complete with a set of rechargable batteries and charger - a nice feature. And the Amazon price is at least $100 less than any other source! This would be a perfect camera for a person just starting into digital photography, who wants a camera that looks, feels, and acts like a familiar 35 mm point and shoot and who has elementary knowledge and sense of computers.

Summary: Buena, buena
Review: Buena cámara a buen precio. Dos minutos luego que la desempaqué comence a tomar fotos. El 90% del menu (configurable en varios idiomas) es de muy fácil comprensión. Afortunadamente viene con 4 baterias recargables (mas el cargador) ya que las baterias se descargan con 40 o 50 fotos (con el LCD encendido). La resolución en muy buena, aunque aun lucho con las sombras que genera el flash. Una vez instalado el driver en la computadora, la cámara se ve como un disco duro (en MiPC) y bajar las fotos es muy facil. La interface RS-232 es bastante rápida. La nitidez, cuando se toman imagenes con zoom, no me parece muy buena, tengo que seguir probando. Y el poder ver las imagenes en un televisor (con el cable de video) es excelente.

Summary: Great value for the money
Review: I also considered buying the Olympus camera at the same price range. This Kodak camera sold me when I found that it had the same specs as the Olympus, but also included the battery charger, 4 rechargeable batteries, and 4 alkaline batteries. The software and interface are not too difficult to use if you play around with it a little bit. I've been very pleased with my pictures so far. Digital cameras are pretty expensive. You save some money by getting the batteries and charger with this camera. Unless you are a professional photog, this camera should be perfect for you.

Summary: Excellent Camera
Review: I am not a professional in photography but with my first digital camera Kodak DC 240 I have taken many excellent photographs. Its a very good camera within this price range. I did a good research before deciding for specific model and I am satisfied with my purchase. First big event of coverage was my own marriage. Now i got my marriage pics on a CD and my personal website and all pics are excellent. Before buying I was thinking that I had to buy many sets of batteries but in fact with only two sets of rechargeable batteries one can use this camera without any problem.

Summary: Great buy!
Review: I bought it for the USB interface, but sent in for the freebie package of accessories which includes a PC Card reader, and use that exclusively now. I can compare it to an older Sony Mavica, and while the picture quality seems better than Sony's (and far better than I ever anticipated), and the Kodak itself is more portable BY FAR, its LCD isn't as big or clear as the one on the Mavica. Of course, the Mavica doesn't have an optical viewfinder so it has to have a great LCD, but I don't find the Kodak LCD useful for framing pictures AT ALL. It is plenty good enough for reviewing your pictures (deciding which ones to keep or delete), and it's excellent for setting the camera options (the UI is great!). Another BIG PLUS for this camera is the zoom, of course. I don't like the included software at all: Picture Easy is a slow-loading hog. I just use it to get the pictures off the camera; then I open up my regular graphics editor to view/edit the pictures; and I use a proprietary online printer's software to upload the JPGs for printing. But overall, I'd choose this camera over any other camera in its class.

Summary: Good bang for the buck
Review: I bought the Kodak DC240 partially on a whim. I had read reviews of the Kodak digital cameras and decided to check the price on Amazon -- which was about right. The camera came a few days before I went to a convention in Philadelphia, giving me enough time to learn how to use the camera. The pictures are wonderful, and my collegues were amazed that I could show them the pictures immediately, or delete them if the shot was bad. I also did a few shots using the timer, which worked pretty well. Following the convention, I was able to put together a quick web site with the pictures, a faster process than waiting for the film to be developed, then scanning the pictures, then cropping, etc. Overall, a good combination of features, ease of use, and quality pictures.

Summary: Incredible Pictures and Easy To Use
Review: I did a lot of agonizing and shopping around before biting the bullet and buying the Kodak DC240. I had used and or owned 3 different digital cameras before this one, and was disappointed overall by their various limitations. Here's what I recommend to anyone buying this wonderful camera. Get yourself a 16MB Compact Flash card (the camera comes with an 8MB one, but you'll find it's not enough to take a ton of photos without running out of space). That way you'll have 24MB worth of storage to take "on the road" with you, which should be more than enough for the moderate user to store photos on before uploading them to your computer. Secondly, buy the kit that has the Battery charger and get 4 extra NiMH AA batteries. Do not even bother using regular AA batteries in these. You'll get a lot of use with the NiMH, but standard alkaline will be sucked dry in about 8 minutes. And finally, invest in a USB Compact Flash card reader. You can find a good one for close to $30, but it will make transferring the pictures off your camera as easy as moving files on your hard drive. SanDisk makes a nice one that's way too easy to use. The photo quality is magnificent. If you take them at the highest resolution, you'll get a picture that's likely bigger than your monitor can even display, with crip tightness. The colors are incredible, and the variable flash settings for different lighting sources are a great plus. And even the pictures at the lowest resolution are fairly crisp, and excellent for use for quick web pictures and internet auctions. There are really only 2 small pet peeves I have with this camera. The LCD screen is very hard to read in sunlight (but ultimatley not necessary to use in a pinch, anyway), and there's about a 1 second delay when you click the picture, so getting that magic moment in a higher speed event takes some practice to take care of. You can't go wrong with this camera. It's rugged, takes great pictures, and I'm 100% happy with my purchase. And it's KODAK, so you know customer support isn't going to be a problem

Summary: Easy to use, great quality, but only decent battery life
Review: I guess I shouldn't have expected too much in terms of battery life from this digital camera. Like most DC's, this one was also a battery hog, but until I purchase a camera with a long-life Li-ion battery that is stupidly-heavy, I shouldn't expect 3 months of uninterrupted use. Other than my beef with power usage, this camera is perfect in every way. Just the right amount of magnification (and more is purchaseable via add-on lenses), and the quality could not be better for the price. Definitely worth my time and money.

Summary: Great Camera for the price!
Review: I have been in photography for about 15 years, using Minolta X-700's - doing weddings, Snapshots, Nature photos, and I wanted a digital camera. Looked at the olympus D460Z, pictures were a little flat. The Kodak Website had sample photos which were very nice. Almost looked as good as My $700 Minolta camera! I was sold. Bought one, used it already for over 150 Photos and am very impressed. Quality is A-1 and ease of use, my wife, computer challenged can use it and transfer pictures! Not a bad camera! Macro is not like other cameras within this price range, but other features and quality well make up for that shortcoming.
