I have had this camera for over 2 years and love it to death. I take it everywhere and take lots of pictures and short video clips with it. It is so easy to use and takes awesome pictures. I didn't buy the printer dock to print the pictures. I went with a picture quality printer and let me tell you...you can't tell if I had the pictures printed at the photo shop or on my computer.

You can't go wrong with this camera!

bought this a little over a year ago JUNK> won;t buy kodak again
It stopped in the middle of a picture and will not power up.. looking everywhere online for information lots of problems out there with this camera but no help..300.00 when i bought it now 120. still not worth it....

Long story short: This easy-to-use camera packs in great features for the price. It has yet to disappoint me in any way.

I've taken this camera with me on a couple of trips, including one to Antarctica, and I've been delighted by the pictures I've brought home. The video-capture, with sound, is a nice touch. The level of resolution has not been a problem for me. If you're looking for more zoom (and that will cost you), this might not be the right camera for you.

This is my first digital camera and I love it. The pictures are so clear and it is very easy to use. I also loved that Amazon had a guided tour so you can see how the menus work! The software is also easy to use and you can do some amazing editing. The memory card door is a bit chinzy so you do have to be careful when opening. I've taken this on 2 vacations and have not been disappointed. Rechargeable batteries are recommended!

Bought the camera thinking my first digital camera would be great!... Proven wrong since it doesn't quite like close-ups nor like 50 ft away pics either. What a shame and what a waste of over 400+ considering my sister got the same thing (twin) and we got the dock.

I've had this camera well over a year. The zoom button broke within my first year, but it was still under warranty and it was serviced without problem. Overall, I've been very pleased with this camera. The optional "easyshare dock" is not at all necessary, as I upload my pictures with a simple USB cable.

I've been, for the most part, happy with the pictures I've taken (over 1000). It usually focuses well, but on the pictures I took at the zoo, I could not make it focus on the animals instead of the fences I was looking through.

Low-light pictures frequently turn out badly. Also, the LCD review misrepresents the brightness of pictures. Pictures that look perfect on the review are often too dark on my computer. Sometimes I have to force the flash on, because it doesn't recognize that there isn't enough light.

I didn't have this problem when I first bought the camera, but now, it will not focus in extremely bright light (such as on the beach, with bright sunlight and reflections from the ocean and sand).

The quality of the pictures is perfect for 4x6 prints, but I've never tried anything bigger. Overall, I usually do edit the pictures I take, but I don't think the originals are that bad. Just too dark, often.

If you are planning on using this camera for video, CHOOSE SOMETHING ELSE. Even on the highest quality setting, the videos are a tiny resolution. Also, the camera has a microphone for recording sound, but if you want to review your video, it has no speaker. Additionally, the zoom function is disabled during video.

In conclusion, this is a good camera for the family photographer, but there are better out there for the same price.

This camera I own for two years. The pictures of this camera were excellent. We took the pictures during night time at Niagra Waterfalls, pictures came so good.

Nice features of camera:
Excellent resoultion and quality; good at night shots; date imprint feature, NTSC/PAL TV output; able to print 8X10 size without loosing quality;

But after using two years it start giving the problems, it's not holding the battery for not even two photos. I given the camera for repair at CompUSA. They replaced couple of parts and working fine for few days. Later it totally stop working even though you load full charged batteries. The camera power light blink and it stops. Anyhow, it's not working now. I suggest to take extended warranty from store for this camera to overcome these kind of problems.

We got our camera as a gift about two years ago. We LOVED it, while it worked. It's easy to use and takes great quality pictures. Lately it drains batteries, in less then two minutes. We're really bummed. So I guess we are in the market for a new camera. If you purchase this camera, get the extended warranty.

I cannot even begin to describe how disappointing this camera has been. It worked for me for about one hour before I had problems charging it on the accompanying dock. I ended up being sent new batteries, which didn't help. I sent in the camera, and they found no problem. I sent in the dock; Kodak decided this was the problem and sent me a new one. It worked for a few months before it stopped working again - I can't transfer pictures or charge my camera with it. The charger in the travel kit for the camera doesn't even work properly. While Kodak's service has been very pleasant about everything, the camera has been a lemon essentially from the get-go and very frustrating. I would never buy a similar camera again - although when it's working, it does take nice pictures.

I bought this camera having never used a digital camera before. I found the instructions and installtion were easy to understand. Easy of use continues to photo taking. Just point and shoot. I also purchased the docking station which is great, it holds my camera (so I always know where it is) and recharges the batteries! The docking station also downloads my photos straight to my computer with one button. Overall I'm very happy with this camera.

We had this camera just over a year when it quit working; of course, it happened on a big trip to Italy. This camera never did take particularly good photos; the auto focus was always hit or miss and you can't even think about using it in any situation even approaching low light. The lenses assembly finally locked for good when the camera was just weeks out of warranty. We had the same exact problem, twice, with a more expensive Kodak LS443. From reviews of these two Kodak products, I can only conclude that this is a known weakness with Kodak digital cameras that the company is either unwilling or unable to correct. My advice to potential buyers is to steer clear of Kodak products.

worst.

camera.

EVER!

Well after nearly two years of use I just have to say this camera is my camera of choice for quick pick up shots. If you're looking for a camera that has

Easy to use features **********
Quick to Review format **********
User friendly Menu layout **********
Fast Delete Button (with double check features)**********
Speedy Share *********
Or Small but great viewing window **********
Automatic lens **********
Wide & Telephoto (zoom)**********

Then the Kodak EasyShare CX6330 is for you. I use it all the time because it

Fits in my pocket *****
Easy to carry along ***** You ask me where I carry it? It would probably be better if you asked me when I don't carry. Because I've got it almost all the time. I like to carry this light weight camera on trips to Disney World, to speaking events and to major engagements where I will be mixing or mingling.

It's very special for the visual layout. This helps to strengthen my ease of use and inspires me to carry it almost everywhere.

THE ONE THING THAT I FOUND CHALLENGING
Even when you have a small little easy to use camera something can go wrong. I've found that the camera begins to stick and sometimes makes it challenging when you want to start shooting pictures right away. It appears that the internal functioning of the lens does not always spring out forward when you turn it on. This can slow down your shooting time frame as you have to use the manual wide angle features to open it up. This was the only area of challenge I had and you might have. Thanks for your time and for reading. Is there anything else I can do for you?

While the camera took fine pictures when brand new, after two years, it technical glitches became more and more frequent, such as the picture files being corrupted or lost from both the internal memory or media card. Also, it would no longer sync to my desktop to get pictures off the internal memory.
However, the worst problem was not digital but the mechanical design. The zoom toggle switch falls off easily when the camera is jarred or when the camera was put in and out of my pocket. Eventually, I lost the tiny switch, and when I tried to locate the part on-line through eBay, I realized I was not alone. Many bidders were fighting for a broken KODAK CX6330 just for the zoom switch. Kodak itself is no help as they will not just sell the plastic switch but require either an expensive repair at their service department or a replacement of the entire back shell of the camera. Notice that the newer models dropped this defective design.
Furthermore, the docking station I bought for it (the 6000) is now obsolete and no new models are compatible unless I buy an expensive adapter.
I'll not buy another Kodak product, unless of course, it's the last camera on earth.

Camera works for about a year and 1/2 then bites the dust with a E 45 error. Kodak customer service is the worst they have consumer advocates who do not care about customers. They try to make $$$ monies over and above when camera has problems.
Stay away from Kodak products unless you only want a Digital camera that lasts a year or do.

Poor product.

So I got this camera like over two years ago and I feel like I can now make an accurate review of it. Don't let the negative reviews turn you away from this little gadget. Of course there are flaws to it and of course there are a few lemons in the batch... just like with any other electronic products.

I have not had any real problems with it. The only semi-problem is that sometimes the lens would not come out all the way and result in a semi-blurred picture. The remedy to that is just switching it off and back on again. No biggie.. and it rarely happens.

It's still working well and just a note... if you decide to get the printer dock that goes along with it, it can still print pictures from the computer so even if the camera dies on you, you can still use the printer dock so I also suggest getting the printer dock because it prints awesome pictures.

This camera was my first digital camera. I was lured to it by the cheesy commercials about how easy the pictures were to print from the dock. God, was I naive.
Pros:
The dock does print pictures quite effectively (although at great cost)

Cons:
The dial at the top is nearly impossible to turn.
The battery is CRAP. I will charge this thing the whole day, then use it for twenty pictures and it will be showing low battery. This is with the rechargeable battery, which you need the bulky dock to charge.
Frequent problems with loading to computer.
Very slow to turn on.

Please, for god's sake, learn from my mistake.

unless I bought a camera at twice the price and this one was high when I bought it 2 1/2 years ago. I have taken over 3400 photos and have had absplutely NO mechanical problems. However, I am cheap and take care of my stuff. I think I have dropped it twice since I had it but no damage.
I have heard many horrible reports about quality but who knows how it was treated. Overall, picture quality is amazing. The 10x zoom quality is not too good so I use the 3x optical mostly and it is excellent.
I have taken it to Disney World and an Alaskan cruise and it performed great. I did buy a Duracell fast charger with 4 2400mAh rechargable batteries so I would not have to lug the dock around to charge the batteries. Battery life is quite good for Duracell and the Kodak pack but I carried a spare with me in the Alaska wilderness.
My 10 year old grand-daughter uses the camera with ease and takes good photos. I am now looking for a good used one (cheap) for her as I want to keep mine. My 5 year old grandson can also take photos with it but some are blurry since he can't hold still.
The only thing I don't like about it is that the flash is not good at any distamce over about 10 feet. Like at a basketball game and I want to shoot my granddaughter. The flash actually makes the picture very dark and it is better to turn the flash off. Surprisingly, then it makes pretty good photos and of course they can be easily enhanced with the software.
I wouldn't want to buy another one if it was not good.

This camera lasted me a couple years but I can't wait to get a new one. The picture quality is frustrating, especially when you're trying to use a flash. Plus, the battery runs out EXTREMELY fast no matter how long you charge. I wouldn't recommend it.

I've had this camera for a couple of years now. I can't wait to get a new one. The battery life on this camera is next to nothing. I go through about 4 batteries a day if I'm taking a lot of pictures. The quality of the pictures isn't ver good either. The flash tends to drown people out after a while. Spend the extra money to get a better quality camera.

horrible camera!
doesnt even deserve one star!!
contains sand in inner lense!
the screen is so small i cant see it!
the battry life is horrible....DONT BUY THIS THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER BETTER CAMERS THAN THIS ONE!!!
please listen to my great advice or you will regret your purchasee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had this camera for 4 years now along with the camera dock. I love this camera. I have had no problems at all. Even after it fell off the roof of the car it works like a champ.It is easy to use. compact,not overly complicated. A really nice camera fora very reasonable price.

I have had this camera for several years. It is easy to use, holds a charge for a looong time and takes great pictures. I have dropped it, gotten it wet and let it bounce around in my backpack without a case and it has stood up to all of it without a glitch. I am just now upgrading to a ultra compact. My Mom recently got a bigger fancier digital camera with 12.1 mp and she often says she thinks the old Kodak Easyshare takes better pictures than her new one. I will keep this one around for awhile as I am sure to miss it if I don't!
