User Reviews for Kodak EasyShare One

Reviewed by: c123456

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: takes OKAY pics

Weaknesses: No manufacturer support

Overall Evaluation: This is a nice camera that takes pretty good pictures with little effort. The view screen is a nice size but very difficult to use outdoors, the camera could use a standard viewfinder. Kodak Easyshare software is cumbersome and invasive. It does not appear that there is any way to unload the camera without the proprietary software. Kodak support is non-existent so if there is a way they're not tellin' me. I wouldn't buy this one again.

Strengths: Very Good Pictures, Very Good Video and Audio, Good Sized Memory and Rotating Screen.

Weaknesses: Slow Start-Up and Battery Life

Overall Evaluation: I was looking for a digital camera with the following: 1 - A rotating screen for taking pictures when you can't stand behind the camera. 2 - Video capture with Audio. 3 - Small size (compaired to my 5-year old camera). 4 - More Mega Pixels (old camera has 2.3Meg). 5 - Cheep memory.The Kodak Easy Share One covered all of the above. The picture quality is better than my old camera, both outdoor and especially indoor. My indoor shots would come out very dark, adjusting the white balance was the only way to get some decent shots. So far the indoor shots with the Kodak Easy Share One have been of a MUCH better quality.The video quality is also a really nice suprise. I have a 8mm camcorder and the quality of the video that I have taken with the Kodak Easy Share One is just as good if not better. It does not have the features like stability, low light and the length of the recording time, but for not having to carry around both a camera and a camcorder it does really well.Memory - Wow 256Meg on board memory that holds quite a few pictures. I also picked up a 1GIG SD card for cheep and that holds 28 min of video or 800 pictures. That is a lot of memory space to hold your pictures and video.Size - It is smaller than my old camera. It will fit easly into a pant pocket. It's not the smallest camera made but its not bad.The short falls I was expexting and with the proper preparations there not that bad. The battery life is short, one battery lasted for about a day of taking pictures and video and looking at them. Kodak supplies 2 batteries with the camera and I also bought a third. If you keep the spare batteries charged AND with you, you will not have a problem.The time to take the first picture is on the long side. If the picture is not anticipated then you will miss your chance. Once the camera is ready then you can go from picture to picture pretty quickly. Its that first shot that can be a problem if your not ready.Overall I'am really happy with the Kodak Easy Share One. I haven't even used some of the other features like the wireless capability.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Ample 3" LCD display, internal 256 memory, touch screen

Weaknesses: easy to lose stylus one uses w/the touchscreen

Overall Evaluation: This is a very stylish camera and I really like the large LCD screen which makes it easy for even a child to take pictures. I also really like that this camera comes with 256 internal memory (why don't all camera have this?). Camera is also easy to use.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Huge 3in touch screen and 256 internal memory

Weaknesses: night shots and thick size

Overall Evaluation: The Kodak EasyShare one is a very good beginner's camera. The huge 3in screen makes taking and viewing pictures very easy. It comes with a lot of preset backgrounds for close up, in doors, documents, etc. The swivel screen comes in handy when taking overhead shots. The wifi card is interesting but not useful if you don't have access to any wireless connections. When you listen closely, the camera makes a weird noise near the lens. It sounds like it is constantly trying to focus. Night shots are ok but not too good. When taking in door photos in the night, the subject looks good, but the background is dark or just black. The camera is very thick in size or kind of big in general when compared to some of the other brands such as Canon or Sony. But overall the camera is good. Pictures come out clean and crisp.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: easy organzation; convenient to use; good pictures; very large screen; lots of nice features

Weaknesses: pricy

Overall Evaluation: I get this digital camera during dell's promotions. compared with other 4mp digital camera, EASYSHARE-ONE Zoom Digital Camera is quite pricy. Even after coupons, rebates, I have paid for more than 200. For that money, you can buy a higher pixel digital camera. But pixel is only one factor to consider when you buy a digital camera. The camera has lots of amazing features. Wi-fi allows me to send pictures to my friends and familys right after taking the pictures. It's convenient for me since I don't have to use computers to email pictures around. I can save and organize pictures on the camera. The full 3" screen is great. I can print directly from the camera.
