Kodak EasyShare Digital Camera Reviews:

The Kodak name has been synonomous with photography and cameras in this country for over a century. With the advent of digital photography, Kodak has faced serious challenges along with declining sales and a falling stock price, as consumer have freed themselves from the expense of buying film and film processing and printing services. Kodak has moved into the digital photography marketplace in a number of ways. They purchased the Ofoto.com online photo sharing and printing site a few years ago and turned it into the Kodak EasyShare Gallery (Kodakgallery.com), where they try to leverage their experience in the world of photo printing. They also early on developed a line of Kodak digital cameras to take advantage of the new opportunity in hardware sales to replace their photo and chemical business that was disappearing.

The Kodak line of digital cameras has always been pretty well received, but the marketplace is crowded with excellent competing digital cameras from Sony, Canon, Fujifilm, and a host of others. Kodak came up with the EasyShare line of cameras a few years ago, and they have produced a long line of successful products.

Kodak EasyShare One Digital Camera

Their most recent lineup is the EasyShare One camera, one of the most advanced internet-enabled cameras ever built. The EasyShare One is a 4MP camera with a Schneider-Kreuznach C-Variogon 3X optical zoom, making it sort of a middle range consumer model, with resolution more than adequate for normal family and vacation photography. It sells for just under $500. The EasyShare One is really designed for photo sharing from the ground up. It has a large 3" LCD touchscreen that rotates and flips out and lets you share up to 1500 stored digital photos with your friends, and amazingly it has built in WIFI capabilities allowing it to connect to WiFi internet connections wirelessly, allowing direct picture emailing and online album viewing by connecting to the Kodak EasyShare Gallery site. So anywhere you find a WiFi hotspot, whether at home, at a hotel on vacation, at an internet cafe, or a coffee shop, you can transmit your pictures to their server for safe keeping, or you can download and view any other photos or digital photo albums you have stored there. Unlike most digital cameras that come with 8 or 32MB of internal memory, the EasyShare One comes with 256MB of built-in memory for storing for favorite digital pics or taking new pics. You can also get a WiFi printer allowing for wireless printing connectivity. The EasyShare Ones also take VGA 30 frame per second video clips, using an SD/MMC card expansion slot for storing as many videos or pictures as your memory cards allow.

Some people complain that the price is too high for a 4MP camera and expect 6MP or 8MP at that price, but given the sophisticated, if slow, networking capabilities of this camera, it really is a unique product and may portend what we will be seeing in the future for digital cameras as networked devices, giving us access to the contents of our home networks and the internet from anywhere in the world once technologies like WiMAX become prevalent.
