Advantages: Cheap, easy to use Disadvantages: Basic, unwieldy
...I also rather like the Kodak Easyshare software that comes as standard with the camera. You can download your pictures via a USB cable (supplied with the camera) or via a docking station (not supplied). Once downloaded onto your PC, the software very simply allows you to store photographs, share them (albeit via an online facility) and make cosmetic changes to the reports. I've always hated playing around with photos, but even I can't get this wrong. ... ...pre-formatted frames on the picture that you just then move around to customise the photo. You can rotate, zoom in and zoom out and there is a good selection of "silly" features too. You can turn the picture black and white or sepia or convert to a cartoon/picture. There's also a "fisheye" feature that creates a bubble in the middle as though your eye was pressed up against the lens. I'm not entirely sure why you would want this, but it's all good ...

...the day.
The Kodak CX7300 came in a smart box which has the orange colour usual with Kodak products. The camera looked very small when I opened the box I wondered if it would do the job. At 150g it is much lighter than my previous Nikon. I wondered if my brother new what he was doing. It slipped into my jacket pocket easily as off to the wedding I went. Compared to another camera I had, a flat one in the early 90's, it seemed fairly large the picture ... ...The Kodak felt nice with a plastic shiny body nothing like the big black Nikon I had used previously it also seemed a bit flimsy. Not having time to read all the instructions as the wedding had begun I started to use it.
Using it
The Kodak CX7300 is easy to use aimed at beginners. The getting started leaflet provided me with simple picture instructions. I put two small AA batteries in the camera and started clicking away. A more detailed user guide ...

This is a simple camera to use that is great to look at, so where do I start.
First of all I got this camera along with the printer port but that’s a different review but if your going to get the camera I would recommend you get the port with it’s as they make a great pair.

I wanted to buy a digital camera as, well everyone has one dont they?
Unfortunately i'm not great with a camera.
Its really a case of point and click and more often than not people are missing heads!!!
Anyway i saw this one and thought the price was good and i liked the look of it.
I tried it out taking a few photos. it has a viewfinder on the back so you can see exactly what you are taking.
The camera comes with all the software to install ... ...shots i installed the software, (very simple, put in the disc and follow the on screen instructions)
Next i contacted the camera via the usb as described and that was it! It automatically downloads your photos to you pc.
You can create albums to store your photos in and do various other things including the cartoon mode which allows you to change your photos into comical images, a bit hit with the kids !! You can also edit photos you have taken.

Advantages: Very easy to use for first time beginners Disadvantages: Zoom feature isn't very good
The kodak CX 7300 is a very good digital camera for first time users. It is easy t handle as it is only small. Great to carry around in a bag for those spontaneous pictures.
The Kodak CX 3700 comes with a Kodak software package which allows you to edit your photos. Create fon and cartoony pictures at the click of a button. You can print them using the software and can also e-mail them direct.
You also get to sign up for online prints and photo ... ...and order them to be printed and delivered to your door.
The batteries last very well in the camera.
However, the zoom isn't particularly good if you are wanting to take a close up picture but still keep all the detail as it becomes out of focus so doesn't print well.
All in all it is a very good camera to have if you are young and starting out with photography.
The average cost of the camera is £70 and can be bought in most high street stores ...

...automatically transfers them to the kodak easyshare software which also comes in the box.
From the software you can order prints to be developed and posted to you, e-mail them to friends and family and even share them online with thousands of other people.
It is fairly small and compact and will fit in any handbag (females only, obviously) or even a coat pocket so it's always there when you need it.
The battery power lasts well and the sd cards ... ...comes on a cd rom which can be played on your pc.
I would definately recommend it for first time users or for people wanting a little camera to carry around just in case there's a photo opportunity.
The average price in most high street retailers is £70.
You can get up to 200 pictures on a 16mb memory card and has a built in memory which will hold up to 15. ...

For me I thought this was great value for money as this was priced at 99.00 pounds., it is easy to use, it is a 3.2mp has a x3 built in zoom, built in flash, also videos but this only takes 30 seconds and uses up alot of battery time -needs two AA size batteries but the batteries can run down quickly, need to carry spare batteries - has portable stand, and comes with the standard ... ...can be used with or without digital card, but card not included with our package - Design all round nice size could fit into a handbag -- wrist strap included - colour silver and light weight, had to find our own camera case as there wasnt one included with our package, Takes good standard colour pictures, even from own printer.

The bundled Kodak software makes it very easy to use and I just love to use this software as it makes the upload so much easier, and you can arrange the photos and edit the photos but this is not that powerful a tool for image editing.
