I have had my camera for about 2 months now and have taken hundreds of pictures. I bought this camera to take on vacation to Walt Disney World. I did not want to carry around several rolls of film that I would have found myself doing with my standard...

Pros: Excellent quality pictures,NiMh battery operation,USB interface. This is a must camera for vacations as you can take hundreds of pictures on a 64M CF card.Couldn't imagine doing this on a Sony which uses floppy disks.
Cons: Lack of shoulder strap, automatic retraction of lens after 8 minutes of inactivity, slow response for moderate action sequences such as weddings, etc.

I purchased this camera for it's high resolution and the ability to produce 8X10 color prints on my HP P1000 printer. I am very impressed with the images this camera can produce.It is a bit slow and the lens automatically retracts after around 8 minutes...

Pros: Great picture quality, configurable, hackable, customizeable scripts
Cons: Slow writes, slow reads, slow boot-up, slow shut-down...JUST PLAIN SLOW

Overview
I have had this camera for almost 1 year, and it keeps me amazed! I don't have the exact specs off the top of my head, but it is typical for a 2.1 MegaPixel camera (about 1200x1000). With a general-purpose CPU and a customized...

Pros: Great pictures, easy to use and adjust
Cons: Viewfinder visibility in bright sunlight

I was in the market for a high quality 2.1 megapixel digital camera and considered the Kodak DC290, the Nikon Coolpix 950 and, and the Olympus C-2020, which all have similar resolutions. The goal was a camera to replace my point and shoot, so I could...

Pros: Easy to use, Video and sound function, and Good picture quality

The Kodak DC290 Zoom Digital Camera takes brilliant, dazzling pictures thanks to its 2.1 megapixel high/3.3 megapixel Ultra resolution. But what makes it the ultimate in digital flexibility and control is its ability to "learn" scripts and...

Pros: supports scripts, picture quality

Sure, this camera's Zoom creates great-looking images. Sure, it has a nice design that makes it comfortable to use. But what makes it truly stand out is its support for scripts. In general computing terms, a script is a list of ordered functions. When...

Pros: Excellent usage

Pros: Quality Pictures
Cons: Viewfinder, focus, slowness,

I bought the product because at the time it offered the most features for the money. Also, I trusted the Kodak name. I played with a DC 265 for a little bit and liked the feel and the quality. Coming from a 35mm camera, many of the features...

Pros: Excellent Pictures, Easy to Use
Cons: Supplied memory not enough

After careful review of digital cameras from several vendors I chose the Kodak DC-290. For under a $1000, this is the most camera one can get for their money. It comes with a 20Mbyte Compact Flash memory card, fairly substantial amount but not quite...

Pros: Resolution, ease of use

I purchased the DC290 one month ago to meet my gadget quota for the quarter. The camera has performed flawlessly for a birthday, baby shower, weekend getaway, and new puppy dog. The choice of resolution as well as compression gives the user plenty of...
