5 of 5Exactly what I was looking for Tuesday, August 19, 2008 JZ from Seattle, Wa
Zoom was the # 1 feature for me. This was the best zoom/size of camera ratio out there at the time. Good pic quality, easy to use, and the settings on the click dial are pretty self explanatory.

5 of 5The best camera Wednesday, July 30, 2008 Hector from Lake Worth,FL
After been using digital cameras for several years from different brands including Kodaks,this is so far the best one I have had.
The quality of pictures I am taking now are amazing.
It takes some time to learn how to use it properly but once you read the manual everything will be fine.
The feature I like the most on this camera is the panoramic pictures I can take now either with two or three pictures stiched together,the camera does it by itself,no need to use a sofisticated software anymore.
Kodak has made a great product this time as usual.

I bought this for vacation and even though it has quite a few features it was very easy to use. This camera takes great pictures and is not to big and bulky.

5 of 5Best camera I've ever owned Thursday, February 28, 2008 Greg P from NJ
This is by far the best camera I have ever owned, would recommend it to anyone. I had a Kodak DX7590 previously also a good camera and this is the upgraded version. Best feature by far is the IS Imaage Stabilizer. I take pictures of some ornate scrollwork on the 30th floor of a building from a half a block away fully zoomed in optical + digital with my shaky hands and the picture
