Kodak ZD710 Digital Camera

 

I love this camera. It takes clear pictures with out being to complicated. It is easy to use and very little hassle. It captures action shots with out being blurry. It doesn't use much battery. Kind of awkward to hold until you become comfortable with it.

Great shots, 10x zoom, pop up flash

Doesn't come with rechargeable batteries

Great price, great performance

 

I was looking for a color printer that wouldn't require me to buy new ink cartridges every time I had to use it. this was usually the case with ink-jet printers in my long experience.

Affordable price, easy setup, nice output

Bulky, expensive toner, printed colors didn't match the screen display properly
