 Kodak EasyShare CD33 3.1 Megapixel Needs Work!! Review created: 10/25/06(updated 11/24/06) 21 of 24 people found this review helpful.
I like a lot about it, it was my first digital camera... It is very good for a beginner, the pics come out pretty good but not that in depth.. I sell a lot of watches and jewelry and you CANT NOT TAKE up close pictures with this camera, it comes out faded and blurry... It is very inexpensive less than 69.99 at tigerdirect.... The features are very easy to understand and learn, if you are just beginning i would recommend this for you... As far as the printer dock dont waste your money...I can print pictures on my printer for much cheaper than the cost of kodaks film kits.. GET A WARRANTY! THE CAMERA HAS A DEFECT THAT I HATE!! THE BATTERY DOES NOT FIT IN THE CAMERA CORRECTLY! IF YOU LEAVE THE BATTERY IN THE CAMERA FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME IT WILL BREAK THE CASING...Then you have to get it fixed, this has happened to me three times, Just take the battery out and reset your date/time every time you put the battery back in if you want to keep it functional.. Another thing I just about forgot, the videos this camera takes are very low quality but that is to be expected with 3.1 megapixels! Do not expect to get a very good video from this camera! The sound quality is much better than the video quality..Overall for the price it is well worth the money for a beginner who is only going to take everyday pics..Not for detailed pics at all... I GOT TIRED OF THIS PROBLEM AND THE $20 BATTERIES THAT YOU SEEM TO NEED EVERY WEEK IF YOU TAKE MANY PICTURES, Also it is kind of hard to find the rechargable batteries and they are kind of high..I PURCHASED A FUJI FILM A600 AND I LOVE IT...GAVE THE KODAK AWAY.... IF YOU FOUND THIS GUIDE HELPFUL PLEASE VOTE YES!! <P><P>Please check out my store I just added the baddest store front on ebay!!!! http://stores.ebay.com/Maximum-Wholesale-Timberlands

After dropping 2 expensive digital cameras, I was put on a budget for my 3rd. After visiting Walmart, I decided on Kodak's EasyShare CD33 3.1. This camera has been a Godsend. I have dropped it twice now with the lens OUT, and it is still working. **Not that I recommend dropping it** Mainly used for taking pictures of my children, and my eBay listings this camera does remarkably well. Taking pictures is pretty self explanatory, when using the dial to choose settings. I use the automatic setting, and the macro setting the most. Automatic does great for my clothing and kids. The flash works well for closer items. Macro does well also, but is a little tricky upon first using it. It has a 3X optical zoom, which does well for pictures of things not more than 300ft away. Anymore than that and regardless of zoom your subject is about this "O" big. The flash as I said before, does well with indoor and outdoor but only if items are not more than 30 or so feet away. On a recent camping trip, I tried to take pictures of a herd of deer no more than 150ft from me at dusk, and all I got was the whites of their eyes. All in all, for under $100 this camera works well. Uploading pictures to your PC is easy and quick. Although I don't recommend Kodaks photo editing program that comes standard with this camera. I hope this helps you on your quest for a new camera!
