General Comments
I would not recommend any Kodak product to even my enemies at this point. I spent 4 months arguing with Kodak to repair the camera because I lost the receipt. The camera has a serial number and a manufacture date on the camera, so it would have been easy for them to tell the camera was only a couple months old. They still refuse to repair it, so the other day I sent it to the service center they recommended. United Camera and Binoculars Repair near Chicago, IL. and wouldn't you know it they are messing me over now. I called them 3 times about this camera before sending it to them. On 2 of the 3 occasions I was told it would be a $45.00 service repair fee and a total of $85.00 to fix the joystick. Yesterday I get an e-mail from them telling me that it will now cost $163.00 to fix it. I will now have a $300.00 Kodak paper weight. I can tell you this though, I have used Kodak products for over 20 years, but as of now I will never give Kodak or any of its affiliates 1 penny of my money again. I will also tell anyone that will listen how I was treated by Kodak and United Camera repair. I was in a shopping center the other day and prevented someone from buying the same Kodak camera just by telling them my story. They bought a Sony instead and I think that is the way I am leaning towards. Thanks Kodak, from a past loyal customer.

More economical than the camera from which it is derived, the Kodak EasyShare Z740 still retains much of the ergonomic design of the DX7590, but not all of it as some controls have been redesigned.

Received an e-mail from United camera today. They are going to do me a favor as a customer courtesy because I was told a different price by one of their reps is how they worded it. They are lowering the price from $163.00 to $111.69. I sent them a return email telling them I wasn't paying a cent more then the $85.00 and to just return the camera to me postage due if they had to. I also spent $20.00 to cancel the check already. We will see if I get the camera back.
