I love this camera !

Graduated to digital after years of using Minolta SLR cameras with a range of lenses and finally became tired of bad colour prints and disappointing sharpness. Chose the Kodak after briefly considering Canon and Fuji equivalents but was sold by the remarkable quality of the prints which the photo shop showed us. And my own prints have been just as good: my friends are all so impressed with the professional photographs we come back with from our holidays. The colour is vivid: the focus is always sharp and crisp and the battery lasts extremely long. My only wish would be for a panoramic or stitch facility (although I have been told these don't always work too well) and a better optical viewer for bright light conditions when the screen is almost invisible. However, even when I put my eye to the viewer and guess, the results are usually excellent ! Although there are portrait, landscape etc modes I find I get just as good results by just firing away on automatic. I am definitely a Kodak user from now on - this camera is brilliant !
