3 Star ReviewKodak c340
Strengths: very easy to use, price very good for 5 megapixel
Weaknesses: battery seems to drain very fast, cheapy looking plastic case.
Summary: This camera has loads of features and very easy to use. Good choice for someone who doesn't want to spend loads of cash. Only drawback is it uses AA batteries which drain very fast. Also the case looks rather cheap, like a step up from a disposable camera. The camera does not come with a card for memory and the internal memory is very small so you can't get very many pics in without the card.

Strengths: Nice price for good quality (5.0 mp). Easy to use. Many features. Opt. Zoom always the best but it's Digital Zoom works pretty good. Even in 1.1 mp the snapshots have nice look. Imagine a higher.
Weaknesses: Slow Loading if you are in hurry. Needs a MultiMedia Card (MMC), SD Memory Card (1G = 700 pics in 5.0 mp)
Summary: *Don't use another kind of batteries and believe me you will not have any problem with durability (batterie life) so buy the same kind that is coming with your camera and you can find it in any big store like (wall...) and is not expensive after all. And if you turn off your LCD screen you will have a super long batterie life.

* Tip: For the night it will look great only in sport option with flash when you are photographing family portrait.

Sport option is amazing for taking motion pictures.

Lower ISO in Auto option less noise than the higher.

Strengths: The 5.0MP plus the 3X Zoom is great.
Weaknesses: A larger internal memory would be great, but did buy a 1.0g Card.
Summary: The EasyShare C340 is a lot better than its EasyShare DX3500 brother. It is more compact and goes anywhere and takes every picutre as though you are right there in the shot.

Strengths: Compact, Easy to Use, Low price
Weaknesses: Have to purchase additional memory card
Summary: Highly recommended for a beginners (such as myself)

Very easy to use. The more I use it the better I like it.

If you are looking for an inexpensive, simple, reliable camera that also has 5.0 mp this is the camera for you.

Detailed instructions helped me begin.

Honestly don't know why I waited so long to go digital!

Strengths: Compact and reatively light, good color reproduction and ease of use
Weaknesses: Battery life
Summary: Although it is not the best 5MP camera out in the market, but the price and performance ratio, it is not bad at all. Color reproduction is good. Kodak is slowly getting it right for a compact camera. Some way to go compare with Canon and Nikon, but it is in the right direction.

Strengths: Easy to use, lots of options for picture taking and cropping, I especially like the red box/bar that tells you how much you can enlarge/zoom in a picture and still have a good quality photo.
Weaknesses: The battery life is short if you use the LCD screen to take pictures and view pictures. It would have been better if the camera included the zoom bar in the viewfinder (not only on the LCD screen).
Summary: This is my first experience with a digital camera and I think this is a great camera for beginners like me. It is pretty easy to use and I was impressed with all the features that were available such as the different scene selections and lighting you can choose from to take a picture. I like being able to enlarge the picture and the notification box that lets you know when the picture is as large as it can be without sacrificing print quality.

3 Star ReviewKodak's easy-to-use camera
Strengths: Easy to use. Easyshare button allowing quick printing of pictures.
Weaknesses: Not compact enough. There're cameras with same features but half the size.
Summary: 5.1 effective MP. I love the ease-of-use ability of the camera. There's no need to fiddle with the settings continuosly as the ambient condition changes. It has large 1/2.5in CCD which lets you see the image of the shot you're about to take. I printed some pictures from the camera and they turned out ok. Pictture quality was good. I'll recommend the camera for people wanting a cheap but high grade camera.

Weaknesses: Eats battery.
Summary: Battery life not good for extended useage. About 2 to 2 1/2 hrs of constant use. With LCD screen on. 2-3 days normal use 20-30 minutes Recragable batters good idea. Picture quality great for price. Need to buy memory card. Internal memory only Good for about 8 pictures at 5.0 megapixels setting. More when lower megapixels are selected. Sport setting works great for things in motion. Great First time digital camera. Just point and shot for great pictures.Pretty easy use for printing your pictures too.
