1 out of 5 stars Poor customer service, poor product   September 25, 2008
Kat (Baton Rouge, LA)
I received this camera for Christmas, and by June it had stopped working. First, it stopped focusing. Then about 1 in 25 pictures would turn up absurdly pixilated. Finally, the small self-timer light next to the flash would not turn off even when the camera itself was off. The battery itself had to be removed for it to go off. I contacted Kodak, and since the camera was still under warranty, I sent it back to get fixed. I just heard back from them that due to "corrosion damage" the camera is not repairable and not covered under warranty. (They were kind enough to offer to return the broken camera to me for $12.95.) I take very good care of my cameras. It NEVER got wet. I never even had it long enough to take it anywhere for it to get wet. I do not store the battery in the camera because I have a rechargeable battery. I cannot stress how incredibly aggravated and disappointed I am. If Amazon.com would let me, I would give this product zero stars.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent camera Poor battery consumption!   August 18, 2008
B. Hicks
Bought this camera 4 months ago and can't tell you how many batteries we go through.This camera takes very good pictures and if you can work all the functions it has it can take excellent pictures.Its a bit bigger than the standard pocket cameras,but its very sturdy in the hand especially if your at the zoo hanging over the wall a bit to get a picture of a sea lion.


5 out of 5 stars Durable and well worth the money   August 14, 2008
Ramsey Mill
As an art/design instructor in a high school, I needed to find a camera which was durable enough for multiple users, had solid optical, had features which were easy to understand, and was at a reasonable price to be able to afford to buy multiple cameras. After reading many reviews, I purchased the Kodak Z1812IS.

After six months of the students using these, I am still impressed by the quality of both photo and video for the camera. Also, I particularly appreciate the aperture and shutter priority settings, which still give the user the ability to have some control over settings vs. a point and shoot. Also, the optical properties of the lens are of good quality. I was impressed for the price and would not hesitate to recommend this camera.



5 out of 5 stars Kodak EasyShare Z812 IS, 8.1 Mega Pixels   July 26, 2008

As stated in my title, I have the 8.1MP version. I am writing my review here because my version is not available on Amazon. From what I can see, my camera looks exactly like the 8.2MP version. It has a 2.5in./6.4cm LCD screen. It is also High Definition. There are different mode settings for the flash (auto/off, red eye, fill), focus (close-up/macro, landscape, manual, normal), & drive(self-timer, burst, exposure bracketing, normal). There are several capture modes for the camera including smart scene, which analyzes the scene you are photographing & choses the best settings for that situation. There are other settings that allow for more artistic control over your photos, panoramic views, videos, & more. Overall, this camera takes great pictures & is easy to use.
My camera, which was not purchased through Amazon, came with a shoulder strap, lens cover, USB cable, video cable, cd-rom software, & instruction booklet.
For use with this camera, I also recommend:

4 out of 5 stars Good Value Some Minor Annoyances   July 3, 2008
Gobytez (CA, USA)

I have owned this camera for a short time and took it out for a day of wildlife photos recently. It has nice features and functionality for the price but a few deficiencies were apparent right away.

1. LCD is dim when taking pictures in sunlit to overcast lighting. Had difficulty seeing what I was taking pictures of.

2. The zoom in/out buttons are awkwardly placed so that when you use the eyepiece, your fingers get in the way. If the LCD was brighter you wouldn't have to use the eyepiece.

3. Time delay between depressing the shutter button and data transfer. It seems that after some tweaking like scaling down the image stabilization and autofocus options has reduced this delay. Actually seems acceptable now.


Other than those deficiencies, I am currently satisfied with it.
