Review: Good Simple Camera - This camera has a lot of settings and modes, most of which I haven't figured out. It has zoom and macro. I use rechargeable batteries to keep the battery cost down. It fell into a creek with me last year. After a few weeks, it started working again and has been working every since. Note that Kodak sold the rights to their name for cameras when they went bankrupt, so this Kodak has nothing to do with the historic Kodak headquartered in New York.
Review: I love this camera! - I think most, if not all, of the negative reviews talking about issues with auto focus have been user error. This is not exactly a point and shoot camera. The main thing that's easy to overlook is that you have to hold the shutter button down halfway until the square on the screen turns green, then you push it the rest of the way down. If you don't do that, the AF doesn't work as intended. If a standard point and shoot is what you're looking for, you probably won't love this camera. But if you don't mind learning how to play with the settings a bit and recognize that its a learning process, this camera is capable of really amazing pictures. I definitely didn't want something too complicated, but I wanted more than a point and shoot, and this is a nice compromise, especially for the price. Of course I'm sure its not going to produce the quality of the more expensive DSLR cameras, but I'm not a pro, I just want decent pictures of my son that my generic Android smart phone can't produce, and this more than fits the bill. And like I said, I wasn't impressed with the point and shoot cameras in my price range, especially with a fast moving toddler in a variety of scenes. I needed something with more customizable features and this camera fits my needs exactly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Camera. Goes Through Batteries Quickly
*by J***0 on January 20, 2019*

This is a very nice camera for the price. It is well made, works well, and is easy to operate but standard alkaline do not last very long. Be sure to carry extra batteries with you especially if you intend to record very many videos.
