I wanted to get a camera to start a hobby of photography like I did as a teen. It's a daunting task to find, read/watch reviews and pick one. this was more than i wanted to spend in general especially after accessories. I saw my nearest Walmart carried this so I went to look hoping to hold which didnt happen but after seeing a few photos especially of the moon from someone with this camera I took the dive. with little experience and just out the box settings im pleased so far. i will include some photos of the moon i took. im sure once i read the manual and set up the quality will be even better. i bought 2 sets of rechargable AA batteries for this and they work no issue. the memory card didn't need formatted it worked right away. I feel better about spending what I did and I'm sure I will get plenty of enjoyment using this for the things I have planned.
It is a nice camera for the price, the focus button takes a little getting use to because it is more sensitive than my old camera but if you focus then shoot it takes good pictures, it is a little noisy which makes it tricky if you are shooting wildlife but I haven't read the instruction yet so I don't know if I can shut it off. I guess I should read them .
Incredible bang for the buck! I got this on sale during the christmas sale for only $99. I've had this for about 19 months and I have taken 5,200 pictures. So worth it! I take pictures of wildlife around the house mostly, and things I need for business secondly. The reason why I came back to the site is because I am thinking of buying a second one and wondered how much they are going for and if they are still for sale--that is how much I love this camera. There is only one feature that I wish it had, and that would be a viewfinder, but I blame society for that and not the manufacturer (people would rather have a larger screen and that screen takes up the place a view finder would have been). Polaroid also licenses its name to manufacturers as Kodak does with this camera, but in this case, Kodak licensed its name to a much better manufacturer than what Polaroid did.
it is a really nice camera
Let's start this review off from the beginning. My wife's current camera quit working. So for her upcoming visit to our grandkids I got her this one as a gift for her trip. This Kodak is the same style as the Cannon model but a lot less, and performs the same functions. The photos I've attached show you how I received this one seeing that I ordered it online. (Just noticed I can only add two photos, sorry) First it comes in a plain box so you can't tell what's in it. Great if you have an overly curious spouse. You'll see a pic of the actual Kodak camera box the contents are packaged very secure. The only thing you'll need to buy is a camera case if you don't have one already. Walmart has a lot of options with nice cases priced between $10-$20. Hope you like the pics. I'll try to update this review after Christmas when she gets it and again after her trip when she had used it. As far as the looks and feel go, I really like this camera.
I absolutely love this camera. My favorite thing is definitely the 40 x zoom. I can take photos from really far away and they come out so clear and crisp, like they would if you were standing up close. The only real downside, in my opinion, is it does not have a wifi or bluetooth feature to transfer your photos. (It does have an sd card slot so photos can be transferred that way. It also can be connected to a computer) It takes beautiful photos and is great for the price. Definitely an amazing camera. if youre thinking of buying it, I say go for it! (Attached photo is an example photo that I took from the camera)
It is honestly a hit or miss with this camera, I have gotten amazing photos and some not so amazing photos. This was given to me to take better pictures of my son at home. A little complicatd figuring it all out but im pretty happy with it
Love my camera!! It can take some amazing photographs. Granted some times it takes bad ones but I believe it's due to the operator not the camera
You can get nice photos but there are many features and settings to learn. Also the viewscreen is difficult to see in any outdoors light, so I found a hood that fits perfectly, and really helps.
Can't see LCD screen in the sunshine. I specifically bought this camera for a research project and also to take photos outside. I live in Arizona where the sun is fairly bright however, I would assume that anywhere that has sunshine would have the same problem. The photos were just OK. The camera is fairly slow. About 8 to 10 seconds between each photo to be ready to take another and I found that cumbersome. Not being able to see the screen outside was definitely a dealbreaker and I returned the camera.
