Kodak DC 215

I never thought of writing something on this camera but I should have done it a long time ago. It really deserves we stop a moment to consider its beneficial support and part in the world of technology…maybe not with my words mind you. I am not very good at using technical terms when it comes to cameras (or any other specific products) so I kept this review simple and hopefully useful and informative. I am absolutely fascinated by the automation that digital cameras have brought to the industry and the DC is a great way of getting involved in this new technology. Once the instructions booklet read (something I don’t really like to do but ...  Read the complete review

I bought this as a first digital camera in November 1999 to monitor the work on renovating my house. You can see the results at www.william-powlett.net (but the pictures of Amelia are NOT taken with the DC215). In general I have been very pleased with the camera, although it does have three fundamental shortcomings out of the box. The first is that the 4MB card is woefully inadequate for storing high quality pictures (it fits only three pictures at the highest quality sometimes), the second is that the card is not supplied with rechargeable batteries. The third is that you have to use a serial link to take pictures off the camera, and this can be pretty slow in this ...  Read the complete review

Before offering an opinion on the Kodak DC215 digital camera, it would only be fair of me to mention that this is the only digital camera I have ever used – and it was part of a PC package; so I couldn’t really place a value upon it. What I can offer however, is my rookie opinion and a brief perspective based upon my own experiences of using this wonderful little gadget!!! Basically, I chose to include the camera in my PC package almost three years ago out of sheer novelty value – although it wasn’t long before the novelty became a fundamental part of everyday life. So far, this fabulous piece of equipment has shared my graduation day; ...  Read the complete review

I am not very good at using technical terms when it comes to cameras so I kept this review simple and hopefully useful and informative. How did we end up buying the DC215? Well it was actually part of the computer package we ordered over 2 years ago. Lucky us? Yes quite a bit for the camera but the PC is another story. In fact we were not supposed to get this very unique camera but an Agfa that has also the function of a ...  Read the complete review

If quality were judged by weight, this would be tops. It feels so reassuringly solid, backing up its excellent brand name. It is also very eay to use - just point and shoot, near enough. It has a manual zoom of 2X to back up the megapixel display. Most pictures therefore are easy to tyak and produce reasonable quality. If you are going to print out photos, try to make the image as large as possible in the viewfinder - if you are going to crop before printing you are losing resolution which wil show. In general too, i don't usually print out on much more than 6" x 4" photo paper where pixellation can barely be seen. the ...  Read the complete review
