A great little camera that blows you away!
By The Big RG
I needed a new digital camera fast in order to beat the deadline for an online video contest recently. Previously I had owned the Kodak EasyShare Z1275 model which cost me just under $200 three years ago. Money was tight and so I didn't want to spend that kind of cash. So I decided between two models: this one and another Kodak EasyShare listed at $104. In the end I went with this model, the C142 and I shudder to think if I hadn't.

This little camera with the small price just blew me away. Not only does it take high quality video but the pictures are even better than my old Kodak $200 model! I wasn't expecting that. The photos this camera takes are absolutely gorgeous! Even if you take a shot of your garbage can the picture is gorgeous!!

The camera takes double AA batteries, has a thingie on the bottom for mounting a tripod on, a beautiful LCD screen to view your pictures and video with, a slot for an SD card, a flash, a self-timer that goes up to 10 seconds, auto focus, a review of all your shots, and best of all a feature that allows you to easily share/transfer your pictures and videos to YouTube and other social networking sites (Facebook I think). Email as well I believe. On screen directions are in various languages when you first turn your camera on, there's a time and date stamp, and much more.

When you're ready to transfer your photos and videos to your computer all you do is plug it in using the USB cable/plug that comes with it and instantly the software appears on your screen for use. There is no software disc included -- it's already in the camera every time you transfer. An important note. You will need QuickTime to view your videos after they're transfered. And, yes, sound is included on your video but only available on playback. The camera has no speaker. Volume is adjustable but I find it to be just right. Great sound!

How Kodak can afford to put out a digital camera like this with such a small price tag is beyond me. But I have one and that's all that matters. I got the blue color and it looks like a much more expensive camera.

I wish I could afford to buy another one as I would just give it away to my favorite person. You won't be disappointed with this baby. I highly recommend!

A bad experience
By marc
Over all the camera is nicely thought out. The large viewer, easy to use functions and picture quality are great for the money. Unfortunately the camera would 'freeze up', meaning frequently after taking a picture none of the buttons would work. It wouldn't take another picture, you couldnt access the menue, even the on/off button wouldnt respond. the only fix was to open the battery door then close it to 'reboot' the camera. This problem started on day one and after a couple weeks was so problematic I had to return the camera.

Great camera for the price!!!!
By book luvin' sistergirl
I purchased this camera to take pictures at the family reunion that took place over the weekend. I was in a hurry for a new camera, my old one still worked, but I knew that there was more to be had with the new digital cameras, so I ran to my favorite online store Amazon and took a look at the cameras that were available for under $100 dollars there were so many I had to rethink price and go for a name brand and Kodak is always one that comes to mind because it has been around for so long.

I choose the C142 because the price and the ability to put in on facebook right away. It has been a great purchase the pictures come out clear, even when I was talking, walking, eating and taking pictures at the same time. You can never say that I can't multitask, I had no trouble with getting the pictures that I was trying to take and uploading them was a breeze.

If you are looking for a good camera try this one. I think you will be pleasantly surprised by the user friendly features of this camera.
