Summary: WOW- A Point and Shoot Winner
Review: My wife just gave me this camera for my birthday and I can sum up my feelings in one word: WOWI have a high end Kodak digital camera that doesn't always get used due to it's size, weight and cost. The DC3200 is a perfect addition to my collection of cameras! It's point and shoot easy and the picture quality is excellent. If you plan on printing standard 3x5 or 4x6 pictures, this camera will give you super results. Hey, it's not fancy by any means. You turn it on and press the shutter (so to speak) button. You can use the onboard memory (only 2 Meg so you can't fit very many pics on it) but when you add a larger (15 Meg or so) card...you have the ability to take a ton of pics. You'll need to buy some rechargable batteries and a memory card reader to complete your package. Add a good photo program like MS Picture-it and your digital darkroom is ready to go. If your looking for a point and shoot digital camera at a VERY good price this is it.

Summary: Great Digit Camera for the price
Review: I got one of these 2 1/2 weeks ago and have to say, for the price it can't be beat. It takes awesome pictures and has many features not found on cameras in its price range. For under $200, you can't find anything better. The resolution is perfect for web or smaller printouts(5x7 or 4x6). Kodak has packed a lot of features into this camera and has kept the price down by leaving out the AC adaptor and video to TV cable. The internal memory does not hold very many high res pictures, and downloading by serial cable can be very time consuming. Getting a memory card of at least 16MB is highly recommended. Some features left out that would have nice: 1) tripod mount 2) self timer. These were left out, but not a big deal.

Summary: Great Buy
Review: This particular camera is a great buy. I have never used a digital camera before and the ease of this one is great. The first time I held it I knew how to use it. Downloading time is fairly quick, 25 pictures took about 4-5 minutes, of course using a 900 mhz machine. Picture quality is excellent even in the good mode. If you have it on the best mode the pictures are remarkable. I have enjoyed the use of the camera, and if you are a first time buyer of a digital camera I highly recommend this one.

Summary: On the scout for an entry into the digital camera world?
Review: I was looking for a low-end camera that would produce good pictures to email to family, but I was suprised at the quality output of the Koday DC3200 Digital Camera. Talk about instant gratification. Within minutes of opening the box, I was snapping digital images and emailing them to family, several of them impressed by the clarity a crispness of the images. I did have to use Adobe Photoshop to tone down a bright spot where the flash picked up a glare. My only complaint is that Kodak did not include a lens cap or a CompactFlash Removable Memory Card. Either way, the Kodak DC3200 Digital Camera is a bargain for the quality digital images that it produces. I will definitly be stuffing someone's Christmas stocking with a Kodak DC3200 Digital Camera this year.

Summary: Simple & sturdy with excellent pictures
Review: Really nice digital camera which won't be a waste if you get a high-end one later. Inexpensive but not cheaply made... a great companion for a laptop. Pictures are excellent. If you use a Flash Memory and a reader or a PCMCIA adapter, downloading is fast and you don't drain batteries. LCD can be shut off, again saving batteries. Incidentally, if you are an "occasional use" photographer, rechargable batteries may not be as good as non-rechargeables because rechargeables discharge at a rate of 10 percent per month while they are not in use. Regular batteries can hold their charge for years.

Summary: excellent pictures but slow
Review: Great feel and fit, but the lack of a usb port makes transfers painfully slow and the purchase of an extra memory oushes the price up to some better buys.

Summary: Excellent camera for the money!
Review: I have wanted a digital camera for SO long, but never wanted to pay the high price for some of the "necessities". This camera fit the bill. Within 10 minutes of opening the box, I was taking pictures and emailing them to grandma. Within and hour, I was taking pictures and loading auctions to help pay for my new toy! Yes, it could have come with an AC adapter,lens cover, etc. BUT, in my case, I would prefer to buy that next month. You can always add on buy buying a memory card, USB flash card reader, etc. That would make it faster, but for my purposes, as a "mom", this camera really works well for me and my budget!! Oh, I might add, I did have to call Kodak for one teeny little question and they had my question answered in 30 seconds or less! So, they do back their product! If you go to their website, you can even play an interactive demo of this camera and see actual photographs! One feature that I really love is that I am able to crop and modify pics all from one place before sending them out. No more wasting download time on boring backgrounds!! So, if you need/want an inexpensive solution to the digital camera, this would be it. If you want all the add ons and want to pay the price now, you would go with a more expensive camera. However, the quality of the pic is tremendous!

Summary: Good starter camera with a few flaws
Review: This was my first digital camera. It was given to me as a Christmas gift two years ago and it's still working to this day. However, the door that holds the batteries in broke long ago so I have rubber bands tied around it to keep the batteries in place. My Mom has the same camera bought at the same time mine was (she bought both of them together) and guess what? Her battery door is broken too! My second complaint is the lag time between when you actually press the button and when the actual image is recorded. This is problematic when taking pictures of my toddler who is always in motion. My third and final complaint is the flash, but I see that's already been discussed here so I won't dwell on it; let's just say put your sunglasses on because it will blind you!
But I have taken literally thousands of pictures with this camera and as I said, after two years of steady use, it still works. It's easy to operate. It's affordable. The quality of the pictures is good for emailing purposes (I rarely print them out). I recently upgraded to the Canon Powershot A75, but I'll keep my Kodak around for a backup. If you're on a tight budget and can't spring for anything pricey, or if you just want a really basic digital camera, you should be pleased with this one.

Summary: After all this time.....
Review: I've had this camera roughly 3 years (I got it when it first came out, which has been a while), and after all this time it still impresses me. Whenever I first bought it, I used it maybe once or twice and (being the trendy person I am) ended up feeling embarrassed for carrying around such a clunky and awkward camera-- so i stashed it away for a couple years. But when I pulled it out and dusted it off a few months ago...something strange happened: I fell in love with it and suddenly remembered all the reasons I bought it on that one infamous day a few years ago. Forget the fact that the flash is a little bright at times. Forget the fact that it has a fixed lens and a useless 2x digital zoom. Those things are irrelevant. What you need to know when thinking about buying this camera (new or used) is this: It works. It's easy. It's endearing. It no longer looks outdated-- I like to think of it as 'having a retro look to it.' Even on the lowest quality picture setting, I'm still able to make good 4x6 prints, and when I use the 'Best' setting-- the 4x6 prints are flawless and you can even make 5x7's that look like they came from a quality 35mm film camera. I recently got a 256mb CompactFlash card on sale-- and you can store almost 800 pictures at the highest pixel setting, or nearly 2,500 on the low setting. A lifetime supply of film. Long story short: this camera has stood the test of time and it's even better now than it was when I first bought it. Kind of like a fine wine, I suppose. If you're looking for a cheap and easy camera and something that you can rely on for reliablity-- get this camera. For it's age and it's price: it's second to none.

Summary: Broke my battery door
Review: I've had this since they first came out. Returned a Polariod for this one and it's 5 times better. Slow picture upload to the computer, so I just go find something else to do while that's happening. My son dropped it and the battery door won't close, so I have to use a rubber band to hold the door tight, it has to be closed for the camera to function. I really like everything except the size. It doesn't fit in a pocket very well. Anybody have a battery door I can screw on there.
