Kodak - EasyShare Z612 Digital Camera Reviews

I was somewhat dismayed after my first digital camera lasted about 3 years. ($100 for each year I owned it.) When I called the company, they said it would be cheaper to replace it than to fix it.  Grrrr!  For about a year after that, I used a simple 35 mm film camera and had Walgreen's put the pictures to disc.  That was getting too expensive.  Then I stumbled into Best Buy when they were having a sale. 

I'm not a professional photographer by any means.  However, I have learned NOT to look at the 'digital zoom' but the 'optical zoom' capabilities of a camera.  This one has a 12 X optical...

I just got this camera a few weeks ago for my birthday/mother's day! I absolutely love it so far, so good. The shutter speed is a whole lot better than the C-Series Kodak I had previously and the picture quality is great. Would recommend to anyone who is an amateur photographer, or just like to play around with your camera like me.

Kodak - EasyShare Z612 Digital Camera is the best camera we have every had.

I bought the Kodak EasyShare Z612 in May 2008.

It takes great shots of people and large objects. I've had no problems or blurry shots with indoor or outdoor pictures of anything bigger than a breadbox. If you want to take basic pictures of your family, friends, pets, etc., this camera is perfect for that.

The battery life is also really long, even though the batteries are expensive. I spent quite a bit on a spare for trips.

However, I find the zoom to be lacking in image quality. I get a lot of blurry pictures trying to shoot macros. It goes in and out of focus on the LCD screen so you're never...

Whenever I whip out this camera to take pictures at special events, such as birthday parties or other celebrations, I always get questions like "How much did that camera cost?" or comments such as "Wow, high-tech". This camera has a powerful zoom, records videos clearly, sound quality is pretty good too. There is a rechargeable battery so it's not like you have to constantly go out and replace them, which I really like. I seem to always end up using the self-timer whenever I go out in public and don't have an extra set of hands, which you can set for 10 seconds, 20 seconds, etc. I like how you...

I find myself needing to shoot meetings in typical fluorescent light, without flash. I gave up on pocketable point-and-shoots. I've only had it a date, but this seems to me to live up to the highly rated Panasonic Lumix, then some (can zoom during video, etc.) So today, fresh out of the box, my success rate in such a meeting was probably 80 percent, compared to 40 percent before, thanks to image stabilization

Kodak has simplicity down pat, and each generation improves on the last in that regard (this is, um, my fourth Kodak digicam in the past six years.) I'll be anxious to read the "pro critic"...

I bought my Kodak Easy Share in 2007, since then I use it in my business, I just published my new website and this Kodak Easy Share has made things go so much quicker than it did when I first designed a website. I just point & shoot and out comes great pictures. I make & sell the dog clothes & bedding I sell on my site, and I have been using Digital Cameras for over 10 + years and I will never go back to a 35 mm.

If your in the market for a Digital, I highly recommend this one. The day I pruchased my camera I also bought the Kodak Picture Printer, they are worked harder than any 35 mm I have ever...
