 Great Balance in a Digital Camera November 1, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I received this camera a couple of months ago, and I am so glad I purchased this model. First I love the size. The Z8612-IS has a large optical lens like a Digital SLR which produces the outstanding clarity I expect. Second, it is much lighter and easier to travel with than a digital SLR. You can still use threaded lens adapters and filters too.
The camera has a lot of capability but it is not so complicated as some of the digital SLRs. I like a cameria that has manual settings and priority modes - although I think most digital camers have these features.
Then there is the fact that it is am American company. Now I know it is made overseas - but at least it is an American company and that is better than buying a Japanese brand in terms of helping our economy.
The value for the price is really outstanding as well.. I paid $209 in August and now they are about $40 less. It is one of the best photography buys of my life. I just returned from a hike in the forests along the Hudson river and now have a hundred wonderful photos of the beautiful autmun trees. The photos ar exceptional crisp and sharp and I used the close up setting to take artist pics of numerous textures.
Good Job Kodak!!
Outstanding PIX and Value October 10, 2008

12X optical zoom with stabilization is outstanding
Easy to use
Full manual control or P/S simplicity
Color of pix are true and vibrant
No issues to this point
Well worth taking a look at.
If you want accurate facial tones and clear crisp images, than this camera should be on your short list.
 Cheap plastic September 30, 2008
1 out of 6 found this review helpful
This camera arrived and immediately I was concerned. It felt extremely lightweight and cheap, as if it would be easily damaged by normal handling. I purchased this camera for a trip to Alaska. Overall, it did take clear images and featured reasonable image stabilization, but I did not think it would hold up well for my vacation. I returned it for a Nikon Coolpix P80, which is solid in the hand and takes GREAT photos.
Easy share is the right name September 18, 2008
This camera is truly simple to use. The photos that I have taken so far with it have been great! This was worth the money and I am really pleased that I made the choice to buy this.
Digital Camera EasyShare Z8612IS August 28, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
My first digital Camera was a Nikon who was given to me by my son.I never have a camera before and i got hooked on it by the way of new technology
of Cameras.When this one stopped operating, i knew i have to get another one.Don't get me wrong,this Nikon i had is a good Camera.So then i found
this Kodak EasyShare 8612IS camera the best.After i have search and keep looking that i like, this one is 4.5 to 5 stars.
The quality of pictures are superbs.After i read the instructions,i experiment to take pictures at work,inside and outside the house,the flowers and plants we have around are so beautiful.I made some mistakes of taking pictures because i forgot to change settings on the mode dial.
But most of my shooting came out nice.Also,it takes about 3 sec.in-between takes.Second con,it takes about 8 to 10 secs. to light the 2.5" LCD.
It has a cover for the lens,the lens itself look like an SLR professional camera.Yet it's true that it is not a pocket camera.I bought 4gb sd and will take over one thousands pictures, one hour of video, which i haven't try it yet.It comes with the strap and a battery,you have to buy your own charger. Oh, the battery last longer than expected, over a week. Well, that's when your not taking pictures too much, i guess.
I still have to get familiarized with the features,after all i just have this last 17th,aug08. I love the color a black surface.As other recommended for potential buyers,check it personally,try to feel in your hand if it is comfortable or too big for your fingers to press tiny bottons of each dial.Like i said if you want a pocket camera this one is not for you.By the way the lens is not retractable, permanently protrude.
Gosh!! i did not realized that.But i keep it.
