Summary: First Digital Camera
Review: This is my first Digital Camera and so far I have been very impressed with its performance. I shopped around for about a year looking for a camera that has excellet battery life and takes near 35mm photos. I have not been disappointed in this camera. I recommend the easy share Docking Station for fast photo transfer and a larger compact flash card for greater photo storage capacity. I purchased the Viking 128mb card which allows you to store Approx. 129 high resolution photos.
I recommend this camera to anyone who is considering purchasing a digital camera. I gave it 5 stars because, so far, it has exceeded all of my expectations. I can't wait to take it with me to my 40th class reunion. This camera is really a lot of fun to use.

Summary: READ this review!!!
Review: This is my third digital camera, and I shopped quite a bit for it and ended up very pleased.

First off, don't EVER buy a camera that doesn't run on standard AA batteries. You can buy NiMh rechargeable AA's to put in it, and use alkaline in a pinch, but if it uses a proprietary battery pack, you are OUT OF LUCK when batteries run down. That was the first win for this camera.

Second, I like the built in lens cover that slides out when the camera is turned off. I'm NEVER going to remember to put on a manual one.

Third, it uses the same CF memory cards that my other devices use, so I can share among them.

Lastly, it just takes damn good pictures. the 2x zoom is adequate, but 3 megapixel is what really shows off in the pictures. I compared pictures in the 1, 2, 3 and 4 megapixel range and 3 is absolutely the minimum you should consider. 4 looks better, but you won't be happy with 2 or less.

Summary: Kodak DX3900 A great buy,Great Camera
Review: I bought my 3900 two weeks ago,The pictures are fantastic.
Easy to use,easy controls on the camera,made for a first time digital camera user.
The docking station is a must as well as a larger memory card,mine came with 16Mb (from costco).
Compared to my dell computer,and my Lexmark printer/scaner the Tech support from Kodak is outstanding.
The wait time is less then 5 min.,and when you get a technican
they get right to it.They know their product well,I was very Impressed with the support.

Summary: Get the NEW Kodak DX 4900 for the same price!!
Review: Well after reading all the Amazon Reviews on Digital Cameras I first opted to buy the DX3900. But then I saw Kodak is now offering the brandnew 4900 Model for the same price. The DX-4900 is pretty much the same like the 3900 but it has an astonishing 4.0 MP and comes with 16MB CF Card and seems a little better build. Kodak is a fantastic brand and they continue to set new standards. The Kodak DX4900 by the way won best camera in its class at the 2002 PMA Convention and trade show. Do yourself a favor and also get the dock, just for ease of batterie charging. Plus this way your camera is always ready to go whenenever you need it. I also purchased a Viking 128 MB Card here with Amazon. So altogether I spent aprox ... for a fantastic easy to use, incredible image quality ( for up to 20" x 30" yes you see this right..I can print out Wallposters of true photolike quality!) 4.0 true MegaPixel, Camera with 128 MB and the dock. Just cannot beat it.

Summary: Simple to use
Review: I just purchased the Kodak DX3900 for $... just three days ago and already have taken over 150 pics. The camera came with the dock station which includes rechargeable batteries. I purchased a 256K compact flash card for $... which holds 160 pics at the highest resolution setting. Overkill, but now I'm not worried about how many pics I can take and I only take pics at high res.
This is my first digital camera and I am amazed how fast the picture displays on the LCD screen. The screen is small but displays a very sharp picture. Transfering the pics to my computer was extremely easy. The program allows editing, e-mailing, slide show presentation, and photo album creation. I transfered 162 pics at the highest resolution in 3-4 minutes.
If you want a point and shoot camera that is simple to use and takes great pics you won't be disappointed. I would recomend looking for the package deal with the dock station. Being able to recharge your batteries and transfer images at the same time is great.
The battery life seems to be good. I use the flash and review the pics on the LCD screen for every photo and have never come close to a low battery indication.
Nothing comes close to this camera for it's price.

Summary: megapixels aren't everything
Review: I bought this camera about a month ago cause I was impressed with the idea of getting 3MP for only $400. It was my first venture into the digital camera field, and I didn't plan on doing anything too fancy with it. I'll run through some of the highs and lows that I discovered.

1. 3MP - Well it seems like it's a good deal, but there are a couple things to know. If you don't ever plan on printing out your pictures, getting anything more that 2MP is a waste. If you keep the picture at a size where it fills up your screen, even the best monitors don't display better than 2MP. Besides, a camera needs to have good electronics to process all that information. When I compared pictures taken with this camera against my dad's DX290 (which is only 2MP), the DX290 photos were much more crisp and vibrant.

2. This camera is really, really easy to use. If you like simple menus with lots of options, this is for you. There are a lot of adjustable settings, such as ISO, exposure, shutter speed, etc.

3. The camera is quick to take a shot, which isn't true with many of the digital cameras. It is almost instantaneous. However, the camera is a little slow to record the shot to memory, so you have to wait a little before your next picture.

4. The colors on this camera are not very vibrant. There is a bluish haze that seemed to cover most of my pictures. If people were more than 5 feet away, their faces looked like they were blue from holding their breath.

Overall, I really liked the ease of use and features on the camera. But when it came down to it, I didn't like the picture quality. They was definitely something missing.

I ended up returning the camera and buying the Canon S110. It's much more compact, and just about as easy to use. With respect to picture quality, the Canon is much better with appropriate lighting. It lacks a little in dim light, but so does the Kodak.

In the $400 range, you can also check out the CoolPix 775. It takes much better pictures indoors than the Canon or Kodak, but it lags behind both outdoors with good lighting.

Good luck.

Summary: Good camera
Review: I am very happy with this camera. The pictures turn out great. I only have two complaints - one is there is no neck strap, just a wrist strap and two, the batteries seem to drain quickly. If you get this camera, I'd suggest getting a larger memory card and the docking station. I leave it on my desk with the camera in it and my batteries are always charged. I also purchased a rapid charger from Kodak, which came with another set of batteries. Overall, I am very satisfied with this camera.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Everything I need
Review: Fantastic pictures, 3.1 megapixel comes out HUGE on the computer with beautiful quality. Easy to use also, only beef is with the battery indicator system. Low battery is indicated after 100 shots, I think it might be a bad battery though.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: DX3900 Good First Choice
Review: I purchased the Kodak DX3900 camera as my first digital camera. I believe that it was a good choice. The picture quality is excellent. I would encourage the purchase of the docking station and an 128MEG flashcard. The software is seamless and the on-board menus of the camera are intuitive. I was able to get started right out of the box. It was much easier than I had anticipated.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Digital Camera
Review: This is an excellent camera for those of us who like to have the ability of a point and shot and be able to do some more sophsicated things. The resolution on the pictures is excellent and the camera is very user friendly. I recoomend it to anyone who wants to start using a digital camera.
