  Duration of ownership: 3 Years

  Strengths: Easy to use, easy to download, nice link with Kodak to share photos. Link through Easyshare to print at home.

  Weaknesses:Trouble focusing when zooming out all the way.

  Overall Evaluation: I am a custom home builder and most of our clients live out of town. We take photos weekly of their job sites to keep them up to date. The homeowners use the link with Kodak to forward pictures to friends and family members and to order prints. I didn't research this model, I found it at Wal-Mart during their Black Friday sale a few years ago. I haven't had any problems with it and would recommend it.

  Duration of ownership: 18 Months

  Strengths: Easy zoom , several modes for photos, video w/sound pickup that rocks thats better quality than some video cams I've used.

  Weaknesses:Impossible to take a long distance zoomed shot without a stand.

  Overall Evaluation: We had a Fuji Fine pix before we got this model and had nothing but headaches with it,paid twice as much and the piece of junk broke a mnth after the warranty ran out, so ,unless you rather spend hundreds more and I've checked prices,this is by far the best one for the average user and the quality of photos is superb. One feature is battery life is exeptional and use only two aa size. rechargable or not your never stuck with a dead cam because the battery died.

  Strengths: Cant say enough about this camera, had a Z700 stolen off me, it was 6 years old 4MP and it out performed most new cams, I decided to find the Z740 as its replacement, Perfect!

  Weaknesses:Not one

  Overall Evaluation: great pictures, great close ups, great quality, I cant say enough about it, I would take this older camera any day over a new one in its price range. This camera gives you pro shots at a beginers level, and if you step it up and know what your doing with the scene settings...forgetta about it, you got some quality pics, 4/27/12 and im not givin it upRaffaele

  Duration of ownership: 2 Years

  Strengths: Can start using this camera without a manual, and my kids have a cheaper priced Kodak for their 1st camera. I would recommend this camera for anyone.

  Weaknesses:The distance part is difficult, but then so are many other cameras I have had that are not digital.

  Overall Evaluation: I like the fact I can bring in this camera, turn off the automatic light, and take pictures in say a museum. I did that, but I did learn that you have to hold down the shutter to be able to receive the full light when taking a picture. I have had to use other software to copy pictures onto a CD, but I have the current version and have not used it yet to copy any CDs. I have used the software to send pictures, very easy to use! Love this camera! This is my 2nd one I have purchased. Would buy this one again!!!!

The EasyShare Z740 simplifies photo sharing and offers a powerful 10X zoom, but its manual controls are difficult to use.
