Digital camera reviews of Kodak Easyshare Z612 6.1 MP Digital Camera with 12xOptical Zoom
Digital camera Review: A Fully Satisfied Customer
Summary: 5 Stars
this is an excellent camera. when i first noticed that it was a 10X zoom camera, i had an apprehension that at maximum zoom, the picture may not be very clear...but when i clicked pictures at max zoom, and viewed the picture on my computer, i was amazed by the clarity. the camera in general takes amazing pictures. a definite buy for amateur photographers like me!!!Digital camera Review: A Well Rounded Zoom Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
Overall this camera is totally worth the $400 to buy it. It takes excellent and colorful shots - both closeup and far away. The image stabilization works great, so there's little chance of blurry shots at full zoom. It's easy to use and it's super small. I bought this camera because I love my Kodak CX7430 and I didn't want to pay the money for a digital SLR like the Canon Rebel. If I had the choice to buy a zoom camera again, I'd still take this one.
PROS:
1. Crisp and vivid photos
2. Great image stabilization
3. Easy to use controls - a Kodak trademark
4. Long battery life and uses over the counter batteries or the rechargeable ones that come with it.
5. Both viewfinders give you a lot of versatility and the LCD screen is excellent.
6. Has two video sound mics for stereo sound.
7. Very small in size for a camera of this type.
CONS:
1. Video sound distorts at rock concerts.
2. Video sound fades out when zooming in and out while recording (so don't zoom while recording is my procedure, unless you're not worried about the sound).
3. Camera could be a bit faster reloading from shot to shot.
Digital camera Review: A Wonderful Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this camera for my wife because the price was decent, it looked cool, and had good features. It has far exceeded my expectations. Has all the options most people could want and then some. The battery seems to go on and on without re-charging. Had a similar-featured Sony before. We liked it but the auto-focus quite working twice. The first time it was under warranty. The second time they wanted $200 to repair. No more Sony for me! People I know with Kodak cameras have been very pleased so that inspired me to try this one. Sure glad I did. It's a superb camera. Now that my wife has one, I want one for myself. Buy this camera with confidence. It's a real winner.Digital camera Review: A little disappointed

Is is just me or has anyone else experienced a grinding noise coming from this camera?? Right out of the box, it sounds like a little motor wants to shut down. Is this normal?? I didn't expect the camera to make any noise aside from zooming in and out. Please let me know if anyone else has experienced the same thing.Digital camera Review: Almost, but not quite...

I was specifically looking for a camera to use for photographing my daughter's soccer games. I was upgrading from a Kodak dx7440. I wanted good optical zoom (which at 12x is outstanding) AND as little delay as possible from pressing the shutter to the picture being taken. I REALLY liked this camera, except, the shutter delay is just too long for action shots - the action was long gone by the time the picture was taken and it's really impossible to anticipate a shot and get it right. The controls are easy to understand and use. The large LCD was great. The Kodak EasyShare software is easy to use; in fact, I use it with my other camera also. Long story short, I returned this camera and...gulp...took the dive and purchased the new Canon XTI Digital SLR through Amazon. LOVE IT! Action shots are outstanding! Not a "pocket" sized camera, but sure gets the shots at those soccer games!
