 Kodak EASYSHARE Z1085 IS 10.0 Megapixel 9 of 9 people found this review helpful.
I was looking for a larger megapixel camera than what I had prior to this camera. (8mp) This Easyshare Z1085 Kodak camera is not as expensive as many with the same features and even has a few more features many other do not have. I give it a good plus or excellent minus for a rating.
Bad points:
This Kodak Z1085 camera, for me, only had one drawback.. the noise. It has a whirring sound as soon as you turn it on, not real loud but there just the same. At first it was very distracting and annoying; however, after using it several times, I can now ignore the sound knowing what the result of taking pictures with it will be.
Good Points:
The quality of the pictures more than makes up for the slight noise.
The Macro could be a little closer. You must be at least twelve inches away from the subject but so far when enlarged the picture shows great clarity up close.
It has a theater mode with no flash. Recently when we went to the theater, it picked up in very low light just what we were seeing on stage.
There is also a museum mode, again with no flash, great for not disturbing other people while enjoying and looking at great items.
There are 16 total modes in addition to video with sound on this model. Some of my other favorites are the: fireworks, candlelight, self portrait, snow, even nightime has 3 different modes.
The battery lasts a LONG time. I purchased a couple extra rechargeable batteries just in case I needed them for a recent wedding and a birthday party. So far I have only needed one battery per event. My last camera ate batteries so quickly it was scary, this camera does not. This is a BIG thumbs up for this camera in addition to the great pictures.
I also like that the batteries are RECHARGEABLE instead of having to purchase batteries constantly and throwing them away when they go dead.
It it lightweight, easy to carry and use.
So, overall, I would HIGHLY recommend this camera on picture quality and battery useage alone.

I bought the Kodak EASYSHARE Z1085 IS 10.0 Megapixel about 2 months ago because I had another camera which had gone out on me. I had to send my other camera to the shop for repairs. It was the Christmas holiday season and my sons first birthday part, so you know that I couldn't miss any of that. I was on my second kodak camera, so I knew that this would be a good buy. The first kodak I bought over seven years ago is still working with no problems, it just has only 3.1 megapixels and not alot of zoom. So I bought a Z812 IS 8.1 megapixel camera with a zoom lense of 36mm-432mm. I actually bought a Kodak Z1085 IS camera for my brother who lives in Australia, and he liked the camera. So when my Z812 IS had to be sent to the shop, I just knew exactly what camera to buy. The Z1085 IS is the perfect size camera to take with you anywhere. It is a HD camera that can take pictures up to 10.0 megapixels, as well as take nice HD video. What I also like is that it has a built n lense cap, so when you turn the camera on it opens right up. The zoom on it is 35mm-175mm. I could right about this sweet little camera all day, but overall I'd like to recommend this camera.
