not full screen above 9mp |  2010-01-24 Kodak does it again!! I bought my V1253 a few years ago and have loved it from the first day! I use an SD card and when the cards gets filled up (350 pix for a 1-gb card)I save it and put in another one! Nice screen. Battery stays up for a long time without being recharged! I carry it in my pocket and just love it. I'm very satisfied with it. |  2010-01-14 Don't waste your money. I received this camera as a Christmas gift in 2007. I loved it... at first. The pictures could be grainy at times unless you really worked the settings. My biggest problem with this camera is that at about 8 months of use it quit working! It wouldn't power up correctly.
It was still in warranty so I sent it to be fixed. It came back acting a bit funny when powering on. The buttons on the top would flash but not in the correct order and the lens seems to have trouble as well. The noise when powering on was also much louder and just didn't seem right.
After about two months of use, it stopped working again! When I tried to turn it on, it gave an error stating 'high temperature' and immediately powered down. This was impossible because it was never in ANY environment with high temperatures. I used it mostly inside in temperatures around 70 degrees! It was never left in direct sunlight, etc. Now, it's not giving any message, the screen stays black, the lens starts to open and it powers down.
I checked the Kodak website and went through the tutorial to figure out what the problem was, yet again. It stated that I would have to send it in AGAIN, only this time it was out of warranty and the repair would cost $160!!! That is more than half what this junk costs new! I did some research online and found message boards of numerous other people having this exact same problem, but they want to charge us to fix it???
I will never buy from Kodak again. They obviously cannot guarantee quality and refuse to stand next to their product when a design flaw is discovered! |  2010-01-11 Has Great Features But Is Junk This camera takes amazing pictures and then deletes them. There have been many pictures that instantly become corupted and lost forever. The video quality is amazing as well I have gotten lots of compliments on the videos but this camera was such a disappointment. And now it wont save any pictures to the memory card. I thought this was a really good deal for the money, but it has been a headache.. |  2010-01-10 I LOVE this camera!! I purchased this camera several years ago and have never been disappointed with it or the photos it takes. They come out crisp, clear, and the colors just pop! I'm a click-and-shoot kind of picture taker and this Kodak is perfect for me. However, those times when I want to get a close-up of a beautiful flower or adorable ladybug, I quickly change the setting for that and Bam! I've got a fantastic close-up picture! The timer works great, as well as some of the special settings, like shooting in low-light (candlelight), sunset, or even short videos. The usage of the battery is very good, as well. The camera is very sturdy, as it's been dropped a couple of times (oops!)and I still have no problems with it. This camera has taken me through 2 cruises, 2 trips to Nova Scotia, Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon, Florida a few times, Baltimore, Arizona, and many, many local trips as well as family and friend occasions. I would purchase this again in a heartbeat, without any hesitation. Even my husband, who does take more professional photos, has been impressed with this little yet mighty camera. Keep up the excellent work, Kodak!! | |

Kodak Cameras HistoryThe history of Kodak dates back to the 19th century, the very beginning of the photographic era.
In late 1870th George Eastman, a junior clerk in the Savings Bank in Rochester, USA, was going to set up for a journey and take some images during it but faced great difficulties of carrying all the necessary things – the camera & chemicals – with him. From that moment he got obsessed with the idea of making photography accessible to masses.

The following years he was trying to invent what we all know as a photographic film. In comparison with plates rolls were easy to deal with and suitable for mass production and hence for nonexpert photography. In 1888 the world’s first film camera was unveiled - already under the Kodak brand. The name Kodak was also Eastman’s invention, whose favourite letter in the alphabet was “K.”
The slogan of Eastman Kodak Company was “You press the button, we do the rest.” So the next important innovation of them was photo printing service – users could simply send completed rolls of firm to the company, and receive ready-make images. This principle of having your photos printed at minilabs has been working up to now.
