Summary: Great Digital Choice
Review: I researched digital cameras for a long time before I decided on the Kodak DX4900. I have owned one for over a month and absolutely love it! Easy to use, on-board menu, and the camera takes beautiful photos. I have designed book covers for novels by using photos taken by this camera and editing with Picture It! software. One touch picture downloading from the docking system is the way to go, also it keeps the batteries charged. My next purchase will be a 128 memory card to expand the number of photos I can take at the highest resolution. I thought the dock was overpriced personally, but still worth the price for convenience purposes.

Summary: Great Product, Great Price.........
Review: I'll make it short and sweet. I own a cheaper, bottom of the barrel digi camera, and the comparison can only be explained in so many words...... If you want great pictures at a reasonable price, this is the one.

Summary: One of the Greatest.....
Review: Recently I have purchased this camera, my first digital camera and the resolutions, the printing, is simply the best. It is for both begginers and Intermidate photogrophers. It is affordable and it's worth the price. I highly recommend this camera. What better deal can you get?

Summary: Beatiful picture
Review: This camera take beatiful pictures, I really love it. I have a film camera from CANNON, I do not think I will use it anymore. Be sue to get a large Compactdisk (128 or 256 MB)
It is also very convienent. What I am now doing is to copy the pic to the ZIP disk, bring it to walmark, they are printed it in less than 1 hour. It only cost you 0.29 cent per one.

I have use this camera for almost 3 month. I have taken almost hundreds of pic. The color of this camera is so natural, and I think Kadak do its best to recover the original color in this category of camera. It is better than the film camera I have from Cannon. I will give my new film camera to my sister sinceI did not use it any longer

Do not beleive the negative comment from the view. Buy this one, you will like it. It is the best value I have ever seen. Even the software it provides is good.

Summary: Great Camera......Highly Recommended
Review: After shopping around for a digital camera. I decided to buy the DX4900. This is a great camera that takes excellent pictures. When the pictures are printed by a photo lab, it looks like a picture from a film camera. Most people will not be able to distinguish between the digital print and the film one. The camera is made of plastic and is very light. For some, it may feel a little cheap but the pictures definitely makes up for it.
I would also recommend a 128 mb card that will take about 100 photos at 4MP. The included 16 mb card will only hold about 12 photos.
This is my second digital camera and I am very pleased with it. I highly recommend this camera. Oh yeah, did I mention this camera was rated #1 in picture quality...etc ($300-$499 range of cameras) at the 2002 PMA convention.

Summary: Great - Esp. For the Money
Review: I just got back from vacation, and am really impressed with the quality of my photos. Even after cropping one picture to less than a 1/4 of it's original size, it still printed out a great 4x6 picture, with little to no grain. I haven't printed out a 8x5 yet, but I'm guessing I'll be limited more by my printer than by the camera.

It's a great camera - you'll need a bigger card than what given with it though.

The docking station is ok, it's easy, but if you're at all computer literate, it's just a nice-to-have.

Summary: $MP is finally priced right!!
Review: Kodak's under [money] for a real 4 mega-pixel, multi-funtion digital camera that is comfortable,easy to use & comes with a 16MB CF card & lithium battery. The software is well designed & easy to use. A must is the docking station for another ..., but well worth it - besides the 1 button load to your PC, you get a rechargeable NiMh. Finally, complete it by buying either a Viking or Sandisk 256MP card - I bought the Viking 256MB.

Summary: The Yin and the Yang
Review: This camera has a serious identity problem- probably reflective of Kodak. When it works it is a fantastic product- I generally shoot 1 megapixel and this camera allows good close-ups and is VERY easy to use; simple menu system.

That's when it works. When I first got it the batteries wouldn't hold a charge- I had to send it back to get it fixed. It was gone for many days and came back UNFIXED. I started using very expensive lithium batteries and it works fine that way. It's VERY expensive that way, but it works. Also my photos are unexplainedly dark and fuzzy sometimes. I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND KODAK IF I WORKED FOR THEM. (And no, I don't work for any of their competition. I am a blue-collar laborer.) DON'T BUY KODAK IF YOU WANT RELIABILITY OR SERVICE.

Summary: Not what I thought it would be
Review: This camera is a total disaster. First, Kodak actually took away features such as video capture which used to be available in the 2.0 megapixel model. Second, the camera has a charging defect. I had to send the camera in for repairs because the battery would not charge. Third, the camera has a shutter defect. After a few months, my photos were overexposed and blurry. Again sent camera in for repairs. Kodak fixed the problem temporarily. Finally, a few months later my photos were double exposed and blurry. Kodak would not repair the camera for free because it was out of warrantee. The people at Kodak were nice but their policies suck. Based on the other reviews I have seen on Amazon, it is obvious that this camera should have been recalled.

Bottom line - DO NOT TOUCH THIS CAMERA! In fact, I would not recommend you buy a Kodak until they improve their customer service and post sales record.

Summary: No Battery life = blurry pictures
Review: This camera is easy to use and, when the batteries are charged, takes clear pictures that can be enlarged and print out beautifully.

THE PROBLEM: I have not been able to get more than 6 - 10 pictures out of a fully charged and or brand new battery. The charger shows that the battery is fully charged, but once it is in the camera, after a few pictures, the battery power drops to 1/2 then to empty. I've bought 2 extra batteries, thinking maybe my first one was defective, but I continue to have the same problem.

Also, when the battery power drops the focus and lighting are affected and the result is blurry dark or overly bright shots until he power runs out.

RECCOMENDATION: I would NOT reccommend this camera. If you can only take 6 - 10 shots and 1/2 of them come out blurry, what is the point?
