Epinions Kodak EasyShare P850 5.1-Megapixel Digital Camera with 12x Optical Stabilized Zoom

by  dkozin, lead in Electronics ,  Dec 12, 2005
Pros: Price, features, performance, movie mode with zoom, RAW, large screen, rechargeable battery
Cons: Noisy ISO 400, some image quality concerns, noisy zoom, slow low-light focusing at telephoto
The Bottom Line: Overall, I still prefer Panasonic DMC-FZ5 as it is faster-focusing and easy to use while not being too expensive. The Kodak P850 is a good choice, however...
Review: Once I found out that Kodak has recently released a camera that combines 5-Megapixel resolution and 12x optical zoom with optical image stabilization, I knew I had to get it. In addition to the aforementioned qualities, the Kodak EasyShare P850 also ...

Epinions A great camera for people interested in making the switch from film photography

by  diamondgirl5,  Dec 20, 2005
Pros: 12x Zoom, Image stabilization, 2.5" LCD, hot shoe for add on flashes.
Cons: The door for removable secure digital is small and somewhat flimsy.
The Bottom Line: If you're into 35mm or digital photography and looking for a camera with plenty of options for creativity and flexibility, look no further.
Review: I have owned two Kodak Digital cameras, the DX 3900 and the DX 7590. I liked my DX 7590, but sometimes had problems when using the 10x optical zoom, especially in reduced light situations: the more zoom you use, the more the tendency to have blur in ...

Epinions Easy to use high end camera

by  lindamylove,  Dec 27, 2005
Pros: Easy to use, nice handling, excellent lens and zoom
Cons: none found yet
Review: This is the first digital camera I own. It delivers high quality pictures and can be used by a beginner. You can just start making pictures. At the same time it provides all the features you might need to create high end pictures under each ...

Epinions Good camera, great value

by  epgrimes,  Aug 11, 2006
Pros: Clear pictures, good action shots, easy to use
Cons: Lag time between shots
Review: This camera takes great action shots. I bought it to take pics of my little league baseball player. What great shots I've captured. The image stabilization works very well. There is a bit of lag time between shots. That's a drawback. The lighting must be ...

Epinions Excellent value with a wealth of features

by  jstrickland,  Jul 5, 2006
Pros: 12X Zoom; Many Manual Controls; Many scene selections.
Cons: Pronounced shutter lag; poor battery performance; no remote control
The Bottom Line: This camera is easy enough for those who want to let it do everything, but with enough features to satisfy the true hobbyist.
Review: For quite some time, I had been wanting to upgrade from my Kodak digital camera that was pretty much point and shoot, to a camera that had much more manual control capabilities. For the longest time, I had my eye on the Kodak P880. I really wanted that 8 ...

Epinions Wow! It has a Hotshoe! Oh Yeah, and It Takes Decent Photos

by  darksentinel,  Jun 10, 2007
Pros: Hotshoe! Can be used with studio lights. Decent quality.
Cons: Tends to shoot slow shutter speeds. Easyshare software cripples all other camera wizards and explorer
The Bottom Line: This is a decent camera for the price. You can do more with it. You can take professional photos, but it's not going to do the work for you.
Review: I'm releasing this review a year late. I wrote it, thought it was too negative, and just forgot about it, so this article is written after becoming intimate with the camera and taking over 4000 photos with it. It's amazingly feature-laden for $379! It ...

Epinions This Camera Is Pretty Cool

by  catprotector,  Nov 1, 2005
Pros: Nice clean pictures, 12x zoom, 2,5 in LCD, feels good in hand.
Cons: Loud zoom which activates when camera is turned on. Lack of manual control.
The Bottom Line: Despite a few issues, I would still get this camera. It has lots of good features and I think both amateurs and pros would like it.
Review: I just got this camera and already I am enjoying it and taking lots of pictures of my 3 cats. The flash works pretty well and despite a few distortions when using the zoom up close on what you are shooting, this camera seems to get some very clean ...

Epinions Great Camera at the Time

by  jemima66,  Feb 13, 2008
Pros: great optical zoom, great pictures, decent video
Cons: noisy focusing, camera sometimes has issues
The Bottom Line: I'd recommend it if very inexpensive as there are smaller cameras that reasonably do almost as much as this one. However, the 12X optical zoom is great.
Review: I bought this camera two and half years ago, and although I love it it is not without it's share of faults. The good: Great optical zoom. Decent digital zoom. Decent battery life. Good video Beautiful pictures The bad: Noisy focusing At ...

by  knowb4ubuy,  Aug 23, 2006
Pros: large LCD, stabilization, optional lenses, size
Cons: none
The Bottom Line: Suitable for intermediate digital camera users, many manual features for learning or experienced users. For the $$ it's a solid Kodak product.
Review: Purchased brand-new on e-bay in August 2006 for about $260. Includes all retail accessories: strap, lens cover, docking station template, battery, quick wall charger (full charge in approx. 2 hours), a/v cables, usb cable, software, and manual. I ...
