Summary: Really Great... minor glitches
Review: I received my Kodak DC 4800 and immediately found out that it was a discontinued product, which disconcerted me. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the camera. It has a picture clarity of cameras of higher price tags. It takes crisp pictures inside and outside as well. The detail is explosive. I like to "tinker" and I don't want my camera to tell me what to do (at times). This camera is fully adjustable (as were cameras in the past). The new line of Kodak is fully automatic -- in other words, you loose control over picture taking. I think it gives me better pictures than a conventional camera -- with instant access to my picture work which is the joy of the digital age.
I initially received a defective camera. Kodak attempted to fix it once. I sent the camera in via insured mail and the camera was promptly returned with a note saying all was A OKAY. But it wasn't. The camera wouldn't turn on. The screen would not show an image (etc). I called Kodak and the sent me out another jewel. I have no problems with either camera nor Kodak. They were responsive and responsible.
I highly recomend this camera even in its used form. It may very well be the last of its kind: a fully adjustable high resolution digital camera.

Summary: Simply Fantastic!!!
Review: I love to take photos and had put off buying a digital camera because most of the images I had seen were less than desirable. I refused to buy a digital camera that did not take pictures as well as my traditional camera. This camera by Kodak was the one for me! Not only is it easy to use, but it also has many features that you won't find on other cameras. It has several color and flash modes to allow you to be a photography wiz. The images are crisp and perfect; no color differentiations whatsoever. This is simply the best digital camera I have seen.

Summary: Love this camera for a lot of things, but not all
Review: I've been using digital cameras for more than 5 years now, since 640 x 480 was state of the art. This is my third, and I really love it when it performs well. Picture quality is absolutely outstanding. I would trade the great images for the lack of recording sound or video any day.It's great for outdoor shots of both landscapes and people. Indoors is more problematic. In low light conditions, especially with a nearby artificial light source, pictures are hit or miss. Some come out OK; others are blurry. And unfortunately, they look fine on the little LCD so I think the photos are OK; it's only when I see them on screen that I discover they're out of focus. I've tried fiddling with the manual settings for this with little success. For a travel/vacation camera, it's superb. If all you're doing is taking quick indoor shots of family and friends, you might want to think about another camera.

Summary: Not the quality I had hoped for...
Review: I purchased an Olympus camera for my parents that was only a 2.4 mgpix and then did some research and thought that the DC4800 would be better. I have used both and the Olympus by far has taken better pictures for half the price and almost have the pixels. My DC4800 takes better indoor pictures without the flash even though the camera tells me to use flash. Indoor quality is lacking compared to outdoor. The Olympus also captures action shots better than the DC4800 as well. Everyone has rated this camera well. Maybe there is something wrong with mine?

Summary: super camera
Review: I previously owned a Kodak 215 and 290, and really liked both
of them, but the 4800 is fantastic. Kodak, when will you be
ready with a 4 megapixel / 10 power optical zoom? I'll
probably buy it. Keep up the outstanding quality.

Summary: Great camera, great buy
Review: For the general digital camera user, the Kodak DC4800 camera is one of the best buys around. It's one of the cheapest 3+ megapixel cameras you will find, yet it's loaded with features and its incredibly easy to use. Also, unlike many other cameras which make you buy several key components separately, the DC4800 comes complete with everything you need to take great pictures right out of the box, including Lithium rechargable battery, AC adapter, 16MB memory card, and all cables. The only things you may need to buy later are a carrying case and possibly more memory for longer outings. The Lithium battery is key - I've been thouroughly frustrated with other digital cameras that use AA batteries which they use up after 5 or 6 pictures. I've also found the instruction manual to be extremely well written and indexed - the best instructions out of four digital cameras I've used - and the camera itself has proven very durable - I must admit I've dropped it several times, but it still works as good as new. The best thing of all about the DC4800 though, is the outstanding picture quality. Compared to pictures I took at the same resolution with other cameras, the DC4800 pictures are always a little sharper and a little more vivid. The colors this camera produces are really outstanding. Even the lowest resolution is pretty darn good. I would take this camera over several cameras that are almost twice the cost - I am thoroughly satisfied with this camera.

Summary: Great camera at a great price
Review: I purchased this camera in July and it has been a wonderful "out-of-the-box" experience. The menu's are easy to understand and within a short period of time I was up and running. I have only used the camera in high definition mode and the results are incredible. Made a 12"x18" print, without any digital enhancements, that rivals the quality of a conventional enlargement from 35mm color film. There are several other features that ranked high on my list. The selection of apertures is important for selective focus and this camera gives me that control. The external flash connector works well with my portable (and more powerful)flash units. In short, a well-built camera at an affordable price.

Summary: My 3rd digital camera in 7 years
Review: After a year long review of the various digital cameras (under $600/) I finally purchased a DC-4800 camera and boy what a pleasent surprise. This camera is great with sharp, clear 8 X 11 photographs and beautiful resolution. My previous digital cameras Epson 500 and then a 600 were nice, but this Kodak is loaded with the latest technoligy and very easy to use. I especially like the zoom and color saturation (bright) or natural color capability. I highly recommend this camera for ease of use and the beautiful pictures. The camera comes complete with all the goodies needed, however I did purchase a [price] ScanDisk reader for easier and quicker downloads.

Summary: LOVE IT!!
Review: I just love this camera. It is my first digital camera so I can't compare it to others but it sure meets my needs. I would give it 5 stars except it came with a picture card with only 16MB. I could have gone on for some time with 16MB but I did actually purchase another picture disk for more memory. I did not need the expensive Kodak disk. The cheaper brand works fine. It works easily on my computer and the pictures are good quality. I'd buy it again if I had the chance.

Summary: Excellent buy
Review: For the price and features of this camera, it is an excellent buy and hard to beat. I have been a 35mm SLR user for over 40 years and I find the quality coming from this camera to be excellent. I can manipulate the lens or go automatic. I have been using it for about 6 months and I am amazed at the quality especially in low light areas. I still need to get the attachment lens and try those out but this is adequate for 90% of my work. The only complaint I have is the delay from snapping the shot to the recording of the shot where a young child (and adults too)can quickly turn their head.
