Summary: Awesome camera
Review: This is a nifty little camera that is pretty easy to use. Pretty much just point and shoot.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Camera!
Review: This is my first digital camera - I've always been a technofan, but a thrifty one, so I waited a few years to get a little more for my money on a digital camera. Man, was it worth the wait!

This camera is very easy to use, and takes great pictures. The menu system is easy to navigate, and pretty intuitive. My only complaint about the menu system is that some of my settings (such as 'close up mode') aren't saved when I turn off the camera, so I have to remember to re-enable the mode when I want to use it (thus far, most of my pictures have been for auction listings, so I've needed to take lots of closeups).

This camera takes VERY high quality pictures. With the 'good, better, and best' modes, I've found that 'good' works well for things like pictures embedded in online auctions, and 'best' gives me pictures that are at least as good as anything my 35mm camera produces.

I also purchased a 256MB SD memory card, so I basically never have to worry about running out of film or memory.

An unanticipated benefit of buying this camera is that I no longer have to worry when my young son begs to let him take pictures (worrying about the cost of 'wasted' film, development costs, etc). If he takes a good picture, we keep it - if not, we delete it!

If you're a professional photographer needing some new equipment for your next big photo shoot, this probably isn't the camera for you. If you want a camera with a decent zoom that will let you take hassle-free vacation shots, family shots, and other general-purpose photography, this is a great camera.

I would NOT invest in the optional camera dock. Even without it, all you need to do is plug your camera into a USB port and then turn the camera on - the software automatically starts, and with only one or two clicks you can download all of your pics from the camera to the PC, and delete them from the camera.

Summary: Great First Digital Camera
Review: If your criteria is: Ease of use, good quality pictures and optical zoom for less ... then this is the camera for you. We bought it for a family vacation and used it everyday. Surpised the original batteries are still going strong even after 75+ pics (added 32MB card), many LCD reviews, and several uploads. (I bought the Kodak charger and 4 battery pack and still haven't used it) We are waiting for the end results from Ofoto so I hope I haven't jinxed myself, but all the pictures look great on screen. Speaking of uploads, the software is very easy to install (WIN2000) and use. No need to spend the money on the docking cradle because you still do it with a push of the button within the software. Best feature: video out for slide shows on TV. Feature not avail: movie mode, but that's what video cameras are for. Summary, very happy we didn't blow our budget on a more expensive camera for features and settings we would rarely use.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: slow shutter!
Review: This is a camera with many nice features and one very poor feature: it won't take the picture when you push the shutter button. Instead it can hang fire a second or more, which means that if you're trying to catch a fleeting moment, that moment will have passed. There's no excuse for this, and I haven't been able to figure out any way to speed it up. Autofocus cameras always have a little delay, but this is ridiculous, and it suggests that Kodak is aiming for a pure "snapshot" photographer with low expectations. I'm keeping the camera for my kids to use but will be going to a Nikon or something similar for better performance.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The camera is Da Bomb
Review: I don't know what these people are talking about but I have three comp running windows xphome and xppro. I loaded the software and it worked beautifully. As far as the camera goes, it's great but i would recommend extra batteries. I mean u can't go wrong with a Kodak camera :).

Summary: Camera software problems on some computers running WindowsXP
Review: I have a different model Kodak camera, however they all use the same EasyShare software. Running Windows XP, I could not get the software to work properly. After several hours on the phone with Kodak tech support, they couldn't get it working either.

They said they are aware of the problem on some computers running Windows XP. It is now several months later and they still don't have a fix. They don't really seem to care either.

It might not be a bad idea to consider other brands, instead of Kodak. Since, if the software won't work properly, then what good is the camera?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: kodak 4320 digital camera
Review: excellent camera all around, takes great pictures. only problem was with the green ready light next to viewing window. there's too much glare when trying to frame picture especially at night. it obsures your vision. also the kodak editing program has a lot of useful features such as removing red eye, cropping etc. but when you want to print photo's its set up to use kodak photo paper.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A little slow on the uptake
Review: This is a very nice camera, I thought the pictures were very clear. Of course the main convenience is deleting pictures that you don't want. A major problem I found with this camera is that it's not very fast, and therefore it makes catching spontaneous moments very difficult. For example, it is impossible to photograph my baby's cute but fleeting expressions because by the time the camera gets around to taking the shot, my son has moved on. Lacking experience with other digital cameras, I don't know if this long lag time between hitting the button and the shutter releasing is typical of all digital cameras or just this one.... Because of this flaw, I will be returning the camera hopefully to find a faster one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Beautiful Pictures
Review: I recently bought a Kodak EasyShare CX4230 Camera and want all to know that it produces great pictures with beautiful colors and clarity. But the best part is the EasyShare Docking Station which lets you put your pictures onto the computer so easily and fast. My wife and I are so glad we purchased this product and recommend it hightly.
