Great 4x6 prints, fairly durable, good quality for price.


Bad Points

Battery tab broke but it still closes, comes with low storage card. NO zoom. Slow processing between imaging (now - not initially).


General Comments

Overall I love this camera. The Kodak EasyShare CX4200 is compact, easy to use and makes great 4x6 prints. I have had it for a little over 2 years and I am not very gently with it so I say it is pretty durable. I did drop it once and one of the battery tabs broke - but it still closes so not a big deal. It has been dropped many times and nothing else has happened to it. I love that it only takes 2 batteries, and in comparison to 2 family members cameras (not Kodak cameras-same level of quality) it is not to bad on battery life. This is a good camera for everyday use. It is not great for 8x10 prints though, they are ok if you don't do any cropping at all, but if you crop even the slightest bit they become fuzzy-and look digital. I have only printed a few 5x7's and they were pretty good. I have had MANY compliments on my 4x6 prints and most are amazed that they are digital prints. This is a great starter camera for a new digital user. Now that I have had this over 2 years it is slowing down on the processing time between images. This is not a great camera for speed between pictures. It also is a little tricky at first to learn the "window" it seems you need to aim a little higher than the view window or it cuts the top off when it takes the picture, I am not sure if this is the camera or digitals in general. You can look through it like a 35mm camera which is nice for beginners.
