Kodak EasyShare DX3700

I do like the Kodak DX3700 Digital camera, and having a digital camera. Kodak is a good company, but I would not suggest buying this camera. You can buy a better HP camera for the same amount of money. Actually, the only reason I'm writing this review is because I've been looking for a new camera, because this one annoys me so much.

The image quality of the Kodak DX3700 is very good, but pictures take way to long to be proccessed as does the turning on of the digital camera. The camera eats the standard batteries(1600mAh) with in about 15 shots. My solution was to buy some hahnel 2350mAh rechargable batteries and a two hour charger. Digital zoom is a complete waist of time as anything that can do you can do on your P.C., but the Macro(close up) feature is of a very good quality.

I bought this direct from Kodak when they made an error on their web page - with the docking station and a 64Mb card it cost me £100 ($160) plus delivery. I'm glad I didn't pay more. For simple outdoor use or well-lit indoor it is not too bad, but the flash is a joke. It eats batteries and is slow to respond. In my opinion best avoided, especially at the list price (model no longer available in the UK.)
