The Kodak DC280 is a 2.0 Megapixel digital zoom camera. I purchased this camera for my fiancee and paid £350 for it 4yrs ago now..

I thought doing this review now might prove useful to anyone who comes across this camera second hand somewhere, as they have now been discontinued.

This camera is quite easy to use. The top of the camera has five buttons, the shutter and the zoom switch are the most prominent and then there are three smaller buttons that allow you to change flash settings, turn on the timer and set the focus level.

The battery life isn't bad generally but u have to use rechargeable batterys or it wont work.

does not conect to comp as no software or leads or manuyal.

seems strange now to hear of a digital camera that doesn't connect to the pc. I forget that only 4 years ago cameras didn't really do that. Good review. x
