Kodak EasyShare C142 (yes it's Green too)

 

Important note: unless using top quality alkaline, lithium, Li-ion, or NiMh rechargeable batteries, this camera will not perform as it should. Works INCREDIBLY well with the POWEREX AA batteries & POWEREX charger I got here on Newegg. ...

This camera does more than a $40 product should. Purchased late Sep'10. Had issues at first (see cons & other thoughts), but now takes amazing photos for such limited specs. Takes good 640x480 video too. Scrolling through the pics on the large screen...

Eats cheap batteries quickly. The first set of 2 AA Berkeley&Jenson (generic BJs brand) alkalines worked great. Took over 300 pics, turned camera on/off many times (lens opening/retracting). Scrolling pics taken was slow and so was camera reset after...

Work Horse. Best camera for the money! EVER.

 

I wish they made cameras for NiMh AAA batteries. they are 900mah just like the LiIon. I actually think most LiIon point and shoot cam batteries are under 900mah

Has worked flawlessly for over 1 year! Never had a hiccup. In a day and age where computer controlled LiIon charging can not only destroy the camera but decrease the lifespan of the battery. It is a joy to be able to put 2 fresh NiMh AA batteries into...

Kodak can do better

 

Not really impressed with this camera. Sure, it's cheap. But Kodak used to be a more quality product, even at lower cost. I might have been willing to live with the camera setting itself to macro all the time if I was able to set a scene mode as...

Crosspost from my other review of this camera. Overall small in size but still has a pretty big screen. Just slightly larger than say, a pack of cigarettes. Holds the image onscreen until you're ready to take another shot. Easy to operate with one hand...

My camera had a problem. It would very often focus to macro mode by default. If you see a flower icon onscreen, that means the camera has set the focus for close ups. It should not do this when photographing distant mountains ; I could sometimes...

Useless Camera

 

Won't buy Kodek cameras ever again. The company which produces just chinese non reliable pieces of junk is not worthy of doing any business with.

None. Totally Useless

The day one it arrived, I tried taking few picture it started making sound like cur cur cur. I returned the camera. My earlier kodak camera also lasted only for few months ; Very flimsy plastic made. Unwanted, unnecessary lot of silver coating, which...

Good entry level camera

 

Bought this from newegg when they had it listed on their shell shocker deal. It was substantially less than their normal asking price for it. I received the camera one day after placing the order. Great job newegg!

Provides good clear pictures, easy to operate, buttons and menu are simple to navigate, good price

For the price, I cannot find anything to complain about with this camera
