It is a slow camera. It does not have a sturdy solid feel. It has a flimsy cheap feel. I purchased it for sentimental reasons because Kodak is discontinuing their camera business as part of their bankruptcy reorganization. I like the radical zoom. I like the ISO 6400 sensor. I like the Nostalgic color film effects.
The camera seems crippled with it's slow image processor resulting lag when shooting and reviewing. I thought my 2012 Kodak EasyShare Max Z990 was a crippled camera from the start and I was considering a replacement but, it seems to take better scenic shots than a 2017 phone camera.
I also like the scene modes. Since it is a slow camera, I shoot in 3 or 6 megapixal size. I use a Sandisk Extreme III Class 10 8GB SDHC card. I also updated the camera to the latest firmware. It is a fun camera and I use it for all my personal use, when I need to do semi-serious photography. It allows me to only use my Nikon DLSR for professional use, hopefully extending the life of my Nikon. The low price of this camera is what allows me to afford it and have fun with it.
