Kodak Easyshare C190
Editor's Review
The Kodak Easyshare C190 is another mediocre camera from a mediocre manufacturer. It has a better-than-average 12 megapixel sensor and 5x optical zoom, but user reviews indicate that the picture quality is, once again, mediocre, and plain ol' bad in low-light conditions. Yes, it's cheap, but don't expect much out of this or any of Kodak's other low-cost models. Check out the Canon A1000 instead.

Can see 1/2 of my photos, or less, Big waste! (David Gifford — 04/11/2011)
Nearly half of my photos are crappy with much of the photo coming up in a different color/shade, most if not all display on the camera, but when uploaded to computers often only come up with an error, and will not display at all. Have had many digital camera, none even the cheapest ones had this type problem. I know digital cameras, and yes I read the manual. Some reviews suggested I didn't know how to use the camera. unfortunately, I missed my warranty deadline. These problems were not, are not my fault!

housewife (Almedia Peterson — 03/06/2011)
My husband gave me this camera for my birthday and it is the pictures are always blury. I have tried everything to prevent this from happening but still my pictures are blurry. I can't return it because I have waited too long. Now I will forever be afraid to purchase another Kodak product. The case looks good and its operation is great but it can't take decent pictures. It's a failure.

Faulty Technology (Rita Sherretz — 01/23/2011)
I always purchased Kodak cameras in the past. When my last one broke I naturally went to get a new Kodak and got the C190. After getting it home - discovered it did not have a viewfinder and when you are in bright sunlight you can not see anything in the LCD. Therefore, you do not have a clue of what you are taking a picture of. I wrote the company who told me how to turn on the LCD. Don't work. The screen remains totally black in sunlight. Thanks for letting me waste money.

won't turn on (Roger — 02/08/2011)
I found that the batteries both need to go the opposite direction of what is marked in the camera. Turn them over and the camera should turn on.

We have a C-190, and it works for a few minutes, regardless of what kind of batteries are in it. If I take them out and wait a minute and put them back in, it will work for a few more minutes, and then quit again. I would like to find an answer to this problem.

Which one is better, C190 or Nikon L20? (alfian19 — 12/29/2009)
reply to this comment
by James DeRuvo (12/30/2009)
I'd take the Nikon. Kodak has had a bad patch of camera design of late. Several bad models, poor performance. The L20 gets good marks.

Does a c-190 include a card (dwilgus79 — 11/17/2009)
reply to this comment
by James DeRuvo (11/18/2009)
Not usually. And if they do, it's usually a small card that'll only take a picture or two before being full. Although some "kits" will have a card included.

Bad Screen
(Courtney — 08/10/2010)
I had pretty good picture quality. But my screen had dots all over it on the left side. The left and right side of the screen were two different shades of black. Other than that I like the camera.

Blurry pictures
(Gary Binkley — 04/18/2010)
I had a C130 previously but it died. Bought the C190. Took it on a 7 day cruise, almost all the pictures turned out badly out of focus. Never had this problem with the C130. Also, it frequently will refuse to turn on, or will not retract the lens when I turn it off, even with new batteries. Sorry I bought it.

Read the instructions before using!
(Jack Socha — 02/22/2010)
A good camera that still requires some effort to undrstand. Kodak has removed a lot of (for many people) unneeded features such as aperture and shutter priority and manual exposure. BUT they have added three distinct levels of use. "P" affords the most control over ISO, exposure compensation, etc. The IA tries to figure out the scene and jumps around. The anti blur mode is just for those situations. Use the camera on "P" avoid digital zoom, check your ISO and you'll be fine. Digitla cameras, even the easier ones from Kodak, still require some effort on your part. Try out some of the scenes and see if they help you in tricky situations.

Blurry
(Gerald Beeland — 01/01/2010)
Got this camera for a gift. looked at a couple reviews on it and they were not good. All i could find said they all had blurry pictures. So i figured i better get mine out and try it. Sure enough a could barely even make out what was in the pictures i was taking. i dont want a camera i got to work on or make adjustments to just to get clear pictures right out of the box. Sent it back.
