Summary: A great digital camera for the price
Review: After pursing photography for years on film using SLRs, I have been looking forward to getting into digital photography, but have shyed away for some time because of the high price of digital cameras. But when I saw that I could get a megapixal camera for this price, I decided to give it a go. Though the DC3200 does not offer the advance features of my SLR, it offerse everything that a good snapshot camera in it's price range does. Though it comes only with 2megs of internal ram, I bought a 16meg compactflash card with it and have not had a problem with picture storage. Unlike some other lower priced digital camera's kodak incorages the use of rechargable batteries (Ni-HM), so I have also purchased a set and a charger and have found the camera wonderful fun. If you are looking to get into digital photography at a low cost, you can't miss with this one. The only problem I found with this camera was that it takes an exsposer reading when the button is half pressed, if you foget to take the reading in advance, it will delay your shot.

Summary: Great, Easy, Fun

Summary: GO KODAK!!!
Review: Well,I half to say I really love this camera!When I first got it I found it a bit complicated but,after having it for a few days it became alot easier for me.There are alot of good and bad points. The camera was quite easy to use I felt.It was small,light and convinent to use.For one thing it only weighs as much as 2 or 3 computer mice.second of all,it is really small and can fit right in your pocket no matter how big or small (unless you want your baby to cary it).Third of all,it's really easy to use.It's like a point and shoot camera.Their is only about a 2 second delay betwen shots and 3 seconds using internal memory.Their aren't alot of buttons either so it's not like a console on Startrek.The zoom was quite pleasing for taking shots of things at a distance.Since it also has a flash you can take pictures in complete darkness,the flash can also be turned off so you don't get a comepletely white picture.The storage is also quite impressive.The internal memory is 2 mb so setting the quality to the 3rd best (out of 3) you can get roughly 30 pictures.You can also get a 256 mb flash card if you are planning on doing some heavy duty shooting.However,cards like these don't come very cheap;usually about $300.The LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen will let you know what the camera's looking at.In other words,whatever is on the LCD screen is what the camera will take a picture of.So "NEVER EVER"look through the little window on the top of the camera when taking a picture.Otherwise you won't get exactly the position of the person,place or thing exactly as you had hoped.And last,but not least if the picture you just took well...SUCKS!Than you can just go back and delete it enstead of wasting a picture like you would on a normal camera. Now the bad stuff;sorry to break the news to you though,but not everything's perfect.The worst thing about it is the enourmous power consumption by the LCD screen.You can't have the camera on for 20 minutes without the battery running out.Next is the zoom.For one thing it only magnifies the pictures 2x so you really can't get that much closer.Plus it's digital.An optical zoom changes the size of the Iris in the lense so the object seems closer than it really is.Digital zoom just electronically magnifies the pixels that make up the picture so the quality of the shot decreases.And finally,but LEAST importantly the delete time for internal memory.To delete just one picture from the camera's storage system takes like 6 seconds!So try not to screw up when you don't have a memory card. So overall this camera is awesome for an amature or a professional and I would recommend it to both.I hope that this review helped you.

HAVE A NICE DAY!!!

Summary: 90% good and 10% ok/bad
Review: I just bought this camera. I love it. i have wanted a dig cam for a long time now. This camera is great. Pros: great pictures, LCD screen, Flash card compatible (for more memory), zoom, small in size, etc. Cons: no lens cover and only 2 mb memory, and flash is too bright. no lens cover is fine, you can buy one ... the memory thing is ok, cause you can just buy a memory card thing. the flash is too bright SOMETIMES and makes the person too light. You should get this camera. Most digital camera's are like $..., this is a good camera to buy. i wouldn't hesitate. i would buy it right now. its worth it, trust me.

Summary: This is one Awesome Camera for the Money!
Review: Just wanted to let everyone know, that I just bought this camera on a trip to see my parents. I own a Sony Mavica FD-93, which is a very high end model. I have found that this Kodak produces very similar results, for a 10nth of the cost. It is much easier to use, and the camera is tiny compared to most. I do agree that the fact there is no lens cover is annoying, but I purchased one for less than five bucks, so big deal. I say KUDOS to Kodak, for coming out with a simple to use, affordable digital. ONE THING ABOUT THE PRODUCT REVIEW ABOVE. There is a claim that there is NO ZOOM LENS! That is false! There is a Zoom lens, it is not perfect, but it does work!

Summary: a great value but a few flaws
Review: Overall, I love it.

Pros: - good pictures quality - Bright LCD - Easy to use, easy to understand controls. On the other hand, I alway have to refer to the user manual for my Canon A50.

Cons: - The flash is too bright for show distance shots. - No lens cover - No self-timer

Summary: A Great Starter Camera
Review: I bought one a week ago and, like most people here, am more than happy with it. I list more dislikes than likes simply because other people have gone over the good parts already.

Likes:

Look/Feel: It feels and handles like a point-and-shoot 35mm. Kodak didn't try to reinvent the wheel.

Performance: I started out lookng at a cheap 640 by 480 camera. This is a great improvement. There is a high enough resolution to let you trim your images to correct poor aim or reduce the size before emailing.

Ease of Use: Worked great right out of the box.

Dislikes:

Serial Cable: It takes forever to download photos and burns through batteries like crazy.

Small Memory: 2Meg is not large enough to be practical, perhaps 6 pictures at the highest resolution.

Software: The "Pictures Now" software isn't very good. It runs very slowly on my AMD 380 PC. But, it is free. I've been using "Vueprint", a shareware package from Hamrick.com for quite a few years and it's phenomenal.

No Lens Cap: What were they thinking? For much less than a dollar they could have included one and I'm not spending .... I've been looking around the house for something I can use for one.

I'd buy this camera again in a heartbeat. It's a winner. By adding a 64Meg memory card and a USB interface I've eliminated my two biggest gripes for .... I can now take somewhere around 200 pictures at the highest resolution at one time and download them in about a minute without using up the camera's batteries.

Summary: "Great for the price" Digital Camera
Review: Extremely less expensive than other cameras comparible and it serves wonderfully. For anyone just wanting a camera to send pictures via e-mail and/or web this is the camera. It's also high enough resolution to make wonderful prints.

Summary: Quick 'n Easy
Review: I purchased a Kodak DC3200 a little over a month ago and have found it very useful for taking pictures of my little grandson. There is one problem however which I cannot rectify. If I am too close to the subject, the flash makes the subject appear too light. The background is fine, but the subject in the foreground is too white. The camera is set to auto-flash which should correct this problem, but it doesn't. I have to take the picture further away and crop it to get what I want. This also loses resolution. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This camera is a piece of junk
Review: Do yourself a favor spend the extra money and get a better camera
