It is made for printing pictures on a photo paper

First I must say that there is not many dig. cameras that have a zoom lens as the DX6440 (4x optical, 3.8 digital), second the "KODAK COLOR SCIENCE" has been made for a reason in my opinion, that the pictures taken are then printed on a photo paper which come out excellent, let's not forget that Kodak was first originally a company for photo films and photo paper and I must add that the lens(Schneider-KREUZNACH) is one of the features that make this camera so good. This camera is made for avarage photographers that use their camera for everyday in making colorfoul and sharp memories and is in her price range on of the best cameras. And handling the camera in a normal way, the camera will last you for 3-5 years.
