Grerat camera still [Posted on 2006-12-02] I bought this little guy with my second paycheck as a teacher. That was about threee years ago and to this day I still have no desire to look for a different camera. This little guy is awesome.
I highly recommend you learning how to get a steady hand if you want to use the digital zoom but that goes with every digital gadget around. If you can hold a camera still (I sometimes use a tripod, the same one I use for my video camera) you can get great shots. I have taken pictures in the mountains of Colorado from Golden (Lookout Mountain) and have good pictures of the Denver Skyline.
Low light pictures are not the best. My wife used the camera when we were in St. Peters Basilica and the quality dropped. I will let you decide if it was the lighting or the user :)
The auto function on the camera is excellent for almost all types of pictures. You could buy the camera and never use any of the other functions (not real fun though) and get great pictures.
Great camera
Great at first, Horrible Afterwards [Posted on 2007-01-12] I've had this Camera for going on 4 years now. I must say, for the years that I've owned it, there is absolutely no excuse for the lack of battery life. In the beginning everything was working fine. This camera has sustained about a good month of use throughout the years. It is greatly disappointing to learn that my camera is suffering a slow demise, despite the limited use. DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA! There have been far too many sporting events that have been ruined just because I couldn't record a homerun at a baseball game, or capture a slam dunk at a basketball game. It pains me to give this camera a poor review, because it was reliable at first. But it has severed rules of engagement with its user. Do not buy this item, nor receive it as a gift!
Great little camera [Posted on 2007-05-27] This camera doesn't have a cool look, though it does a great job! The photos are not that good when it is displayed on the LCD screen. Once you uploaded it to the PC, the quality is much better. I first thought that this wouldn't be a decent camera because it is only 3MP. But it turns out that I like it so much that I am not even bothering to look for a higher MP camera. I strongly recommend this camera!
Short life span, good while it lasted. [Posted on 2007-09-17] I bought my Kodak Easyshare CX7330 in February of 2005. It did well although the older it got, the more it ate batteries. With the money I have spent on batteries I would have been better off getting one with a charger and a pack. I have also tried every type of AA battery out there and it is the camera itself with the issues. Now, 2 and a half years later it has taken it's last pictures. The trouble began with when I would turn it on the indicator light would pop up green, then immediately flash red and the lens would not extend out. Sometimes it would work, sometimes not. Now I can put fresh batteries in and if I hold it just right I can take a few pictures, then the low battery icon comes on the screen and it goes dead, even without retracting the lens. As I said, it was a great little camera while it lasted, but I think I will get something more hardy next time.
Great starter camera! [Posted on 2008-08-06] I purchased a refurbished model in December 2005 and fell in love with it instantly. I was a bit bummed at first because I could only afford 3 megapixels, but this camera takes amazing pictures! I am a photography buff and this camera (3 megapixels and all) fed my fetish perfectly. Unfortunately, I recently lost my camera to a hail storm and because I loved this EasyShare so much, I replaced it with another EasyShare model (C713 in pink). It would have lasted me much, much longer, but even though it is a well-made, high-quality camera, it is no match for mother nature.
I definitely recommend this camera to anyone who is just starting out in photography or needs an easy-to-use, no-frills model for the family. I would even recommend it for children and am also considering buying one for each of my nephews (ages 8 and 6). In fact, it is so easy for kids to use, they have borrowed it from me on occassion and have taken some great snapshots.
