General Comments
The build quality of the Kodak EasyShare DX6340 digital camera is garbage - very flimsy construction. The software is useless, and it is rigged by Kodak and Apple Quick Time. They give you the basic software and then pressure you to upgrade to the premium software. This racket is supported by the firmware being set to only take movies in MOV format, and the files after full conversion in to AVI (RADTOOLS) and then WMV, with almost no discernible loss of video or sound quality, compress down to 1/7th their size.



Online registration is terrible, as "registering for warranty" also means that not only do you have to fill out a 72 question market research survey where you have to answer all the questions; then your details DO get shared amongst all of the Kodak branches and their affiliates - so Kodak and their affiliates then start spamming. The opt out is a JOKE, meaning that you have to then opt out of every separate affiliate and department.



The customer service under warranty is absolutely appalling.



In a technical sense, the camera is very good. The build quality is junk, the software is sleazy and inadequate, and Kodak should be ashamed of themselves!
