This was a great camera for my great niece. It is easy to use and good quality. The images look sharp. It even takes good pictures in complete darkness. The flash is powerful for such a small camera. It is easy to review pictures and delete the ones you don’t like. I would recommend this camera for adults on vacation or wherever life takes you. Very compact and easy to slip it into your pocket without much bulk. I love that it uses regular AA rechargeable batteries. You don’t have to rely on a weirdly shaped battery from a factory. No regrets on this camera. She absolutely loves the camera.

1.0 out of 5 stars WORST, Most Unnecessarily Complicated Camera I've Ever Been Cursed With
It will easy-peasy delete ONE foto .............. but when you're wanting to delete them all after downloading them to your computer --- GETTING TO THAT .... FINDING THAT TAKES AN UNNECESSARILY LONG TIME. The previous models which I loved - allowed you to select delete ONE, or delete ALL. The geniuses who 'designed' this torture device HID THE DELETE ALL deep in the RIDICULOUSLY CONVOLUTED, MEANDERING 'MENU'. Another HUGELY annoying problem with this one (a problem I didn't have with my prior models) is that on occasion I'll try to print a page for an item I'm ordering online - but for some unknown reason - the foto of the item being ordered isn't THERE --- so I will take a foto of the page. Ninety-nine percent of the time .... the foto has blurred contortion lines throughout ... so it will take me sometimes DOZENS OF ATTEMPTS before I finally DO get one without those lines - and THAT is with the 'shake' mode selected. Also - it apparently does something which results in the downloaded fotos into the computer coming along with blank fotos - so for every foto, there's a blank beside it. UNBELIEVABLE, I know ! I'm going to be actively looking for a new replacement for my ol' reliable EASY SHARE C182 this winter when the weather stops cooperating with my outside pursuits. When I order and receive it - I am going to go out to the garden building and get a sledge hammer, and I'm going to place this miserable piece of electronic DEVILRY on the anvil outside - and I'm going to (yes - safety glasses on) smash it to smitherines. I hope that this 'note' gets passed on to the person / team responsible for creating this POS camera ... WORST I'VE EVER HAD. I did this to a record album I bought back in the 1970s, in Germany - and it was sooooooooooo BAD that in order that it never be played again; I put it in the oven and baked it til it will never be played again - mercifully ! I still have that, and will also be holding on to the PANCAKED camera (Kodak pixPRO FZ45, as a reminder of JUST HOW BAD AN ITEM CAN BE. Readers - don't say you were not warned !

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome for the price
I’ve been using this camera for a couple months now. It took a month to ship but other than that it’s easy to carry around and has really good quality, especially if you utilize the flash. That’s where it really shines. It has options to make the photos more vivid or more cloudy, etc. Which is insanely helpful when you’re trying to figure out how to take the right photo in the environment you’re in. I love this camera so so much.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great camera
This camera offers great value for the price. After doing extensive research, I found it to be a solid choice, especially for its performance in low-light settings, thanks to the built-in flash. The camera is compact, making it easy to carry and pack for trips. The only downside is the battery life, as it requires frequent replacements. However, uploading photos is a breeze—I haven’t encountered any issues there. Overall, this is a great camera for anyone who loves capturing moments and sharing them on Instagram!

I love this camera and the vintage affect it gives my pictures. It will only work with a Kodak SD card.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this digi cam!!!
I love this little camera - it's light, easy to use, and makes for the cutest pics. I can't recommend this digital camera enough (and I never write reviews). I truly carry this everywhere I go :)


I love this digi cam!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars SD CARD!!
This camera works amazing!! The photos are absolutely beautiful, but the one thing I do want to mention is how you do NOT NEED an SD card. The arrow pointing at a charger is what u use to just upload the pictures and videos to your COMPUTER ONLY!! I bought an SD card and it kept saying no pictures were taken when they were but once I took it out fully and took another picture it showed and I found the charger that came with the package and connected it to my computer and found all my pictures! I hope this was helpful! Love this camera!????


SD CARD!!
