Summary: Poor long term performance
Review: When I first got my Kodak DX3900 camera, I was pretty happy. Yes, the memory card is too small, but otherwise it seemed to have all of the features I was looking for. The first few photos looked pretty good as well. However, with continued use, the camera simply doesn't perform. After taking only about 30 photos, the camera now refuses to take any more photos, and those last few photos were out of focus and either over or under exposed. Changing batteries helps for a short while, but even using CRV3 lithium batteries rather than AA's, after a very short while the camera refusues to perform other than to let you see the few photos you've already taken. I'm not aware of other cameras that consume battery power like this, so my plan is to get rid of this camera and buy a new one soon.

Summary: Simple to use with high quality pictures
Review: One of the best investments I made. Its very simple to use and picture transfer is also fast. One word of advise if you have winxp then don't install the kodak software as its a pain to get rid of and keeps popping up everytime u boot up. apart from that the original 8MB card is a bummer so I purchased a 128MB card from amazon. The picture quality is extremely good and the flash is also reasonably powerful. the on camera menu is really good and easy to use. Its ability to hook upto to a TV for a slide show has really been helpful.Overall a great deal for day to day use and recreation.

Summary: why is everything so red
Review: SO I have had this camera for a year and anything that has red in it is intensified, people look like drunks with splotchness and when I use it for work the products look much redder that they really are. The only way, I have found to get rid of it is to use ACDC to modify the photos what a time consuming affair. Other than that it is really simple to use.

Summary: Best Camera For the Price
Review: My brother bought me this camera and gave it to me to take to Europe, take some photos and send them back to him. I hadn't bought a digital to date, because I wasn't satisfied with the quality. This changed when I saw what this camera could do, and the color quality. The 8-MB of memory it comes with, is not nearly enough. I got 2x128-MB to take to on my trip. My computer is running on WinXP, and the software wasn't marked as compatible, yet it worked fine. It had some features that made it more convenient than the XP bundled software, but it was really slow. But that's the software, not the camera. The camera works well, with many features found in more expensive competitors. Now all I've got to do is figure out what to do with all the photos! I took a lot of duplicates, got rid of the bogus ones, and wound up with a lot mre quality shots than I would have come back with using film.

Summary: Best camera for the money!!!!
Review: I got this camera about 2 weeks ago. It's my first digital camera. I started taking pictures right away. It's so easy to use a baby can do it. There are many features included that only more expensive cameras have. To start it has 3.1megapixels maximum resolution. This is really all you need to take quality photos, and make great prints. Forget the 4 and 5 megapixel cameras, which add detail that you don't notice, but cost 3 or 4 times as much. You can change the setting down to 0.8MP for emailing photos(smaller size). There is a manual shutter speed setting, so you can take photos of fast moving objects, or at night(longer shutter). You don't really need the docking station, unless you don't have a battery charger ... . You also can take black and white photos, change the white balance for different light conditions, exposure compensation adjust sharpness,set a date and time stamp in different formats and exposure metering. There is also a self timer of 10 seconds, a power save feature, camera sounds, and a video out feature to see photos from the camera on your TV. You can set your language to English, French, german, spanish, italian or portugues. If you want a Big bang for your buck, this is the camera for you. I would get a bigger compact flash memory...maybe 128MB, as the included 8mb takes about 6 photos at 3.1mb, or 28 in low quality setting.

Summary: I will never again buy a Kodak product
Review: While this camera takes superb pictures for the price, the associated software is terrible. To make matters worse, customer service is virtually nonexistent. To anyone thinking of purchasing a Kodak product, I would recommend attempting to reach somebody via customer service, or I would recommend attempting to email kodak customer service, just to test accessibility. My recommendation for anyone looking at this camera, or any Kodak digital camera, is to pay a little extra and get something of higher quality, like a Canon. In the long run, you'll get much more out of it.

Summary: EXCELLENT DIGITAL CAMERA!!!!!!
Review: I have had my DX3900 for about a year now and it is still reliable. I recently upgraded my computer system and printer, but don't feel it necessary to get a new camera since this camera is so great. The photo quality is fabulous! It is so nice to download photos with the touch of the easyshare dock button! How easy! I primarily use this camera to take photos for ebay ads and I swear that my super clear, quality photos help my sales! I highly recommend this camera. It is a bit pricey, but believe me...it is worth it! You will not be disappointed.

Summary: Good Camara
Review: This camera is really easy to use. It takes clear pictures with great detail when seen on the screen. It is not heavy and it has a perfect size to travel with. The software is great and easy to use too. The only problem is that when you print the pictures all the quality is gone. So this is a great camera but not if you primary use of it is to print the photos.

Summary: Nice, light camera with qood quality pictures
Review: We just used this camera on a 2 week trip to Montana during which I was able to get a good feel for this camera. Likes: Light, fits in pocket, good quality pictures, I used 2.1 meg most of the time, easy to download to computer, stored lots of photos with my added large memory card. Dislikes: Can't see LCD screen in the sun, the digitial zoom is TERRIBLE--is there a secret to getting a clear photo? I purchased lenses to go with the camera and they worked terrible as well. Otherwise, for good quality simple photos, this is a great camera.
