Powerful and packed with advanced features--yet decidedly easy to use--the Kodak DX4330 offers a 3-megapixel CCD sensor and a 3x optical zoom lens. The DX4330 also features automatic scene modes, a 16 MB internal memory, and a new indoor-outdoor LCD for reviewing your shots in even the sunniest of conditions.

Optics and Resolution
The DX4330 delivers vivid and consistent color images up to 2,160 x 1,400 pixels, which produces print sizes up to 11 by 14 inches. Zoom into the action with a 3x optical zoom, equivalent to 38-114mm in a 35mm camera. When combined with the 3.3x digital zoom, you get a total zoom of 10x. It has an aperture range of f2.8-f5.1 and a shutter speed of 1/2 to 1/1,700 of a second.

Storage and Transfer
The DX4330 is always ready to go with its 16 MB of internal memory, and it can be expanded via MultiMediaCard (MMC) and Secure Digital (SD) memory cards.

The Share button on the back of the DX4330 enables you to tag pictures right on the camera for automatic printing or e-mailing after transferring them to your PC. You can even store up to 32 e-mail addresses in the camera. With the optional Kodak EasyShare camera dock, transferring your pictures from the camera to a PC is as easy as pushing a single button. Also, when docked, the DX4330's batteries are recharged in 2.5 hours or less.

Movie Mode
In movie mode, the DX4330 captures continuous video and audio, which can then be played back via the camera's LCD and built-in speaker. The limited resolution of your movies guarantees that this feature won't replace your camcorder, but it's perfect for when you just want to capture a quick movie and e-mail it to a friend or relative.

More Features
Preview and review your shots easily on the DX4330's 1.8-inch indoor-outdoor LCD, which lets you maintain exceptional viewing quality even in bright sunlight. You can also magnify shots that you review in the LCD by 2x or 4x.

From landscape to sports, easy-to-access scene modes take care of the details so you can consistently get the perfect shot. Use the DX4330's creative modes for even more photo flair.

Power
The DX4330 is powered by a CR-V3 lithium battery (included) or optional NiMH rechargeable batteries that are charged by the optional EasyShare dock. We recommend getting a set or two of rechargeable nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries and a charger.

Size and Contents
The DX4330 measures 4.4 by 2.6 by 1.9 inches and weighs 7.4 ounces without batteries. This package includes the DX4330 digital camera, CR-V3 lithium battery, AV and USB cables, wrist strap, lens cap and strap, and Kodak EasyShare CD-ROM.

good camera, terrible software

The camera is easy to use and the quality of the pictures is very good. Getting the pictures out of the camera and into your computer is another matter. The software is very un-intuitive, lots of "albums" and "gallerys" but all we wanted to do is get the photos into the PC. The "Help" file is not much help and Kodak's webpage essentially says to read the manual. Now I know why Kodak is going down the tubes.

Total Love

I had some initial problems with the camera after purchase, and had to return it to Kodak twice for repairs. But since then it has worked fine. I enjoy the Kodak picture program that came with the camera, although it does not offer all the possibilities of the Adobe Photo House program. Camera is convenient and easy to use, and I'm sure it is capable of doing much more than I have discovered to this point.

I LOVE THIS CAMERA! I bought it just over 3 yrs ago after my youngest son was born. It is so easy to use, so much it can do. I did have 1 digital camera before this and to download the pictures I would spend a frustrating 30 minutes every time to get my computer to 'see' it. My husband doesn't like 'complicated' electronics but he will use this. Much to my joy I receive e-mailed pictures from him every couple of weeks (I am currently deployed to Iraq). Since being here a few other people have been interested in buying a digital camera and I HIGHLY recommended a Kodak Easyshare. I actually wish Kodak would start making digital video cameras. This is the next step for video and I would defiantly by one...

Camera ROCKS! Easy, Great Pics, and I LOVE the charging Dock

This is the easiest to use digital camera I have ever seen. It has the ability to take movies, and even has different modes (auto, sports, macro, low-light, and ZOOM)... all without making it complicated. That's why this camera is good for beginners and experienced users alike (enough options for many of us, but easy for the novices). It has a 1.8inch viewable LCD. I've found that the cams with bigger screens used up batteries to fast, and those with smaller screens just weren't big enough to see. This camera has INTERNAL MEMORY. A big plus because many digital cameras only rely on memory cards. Also, you have the option of using SD memory cards if you want. They're cheaper than SONY memory stick, more compact that Compact Flash cards, and are so versitile because it's the same size that fits into PDA's such as palm-pilots. This makes it especially handy. The flash is easy to use on this camera and isn't overpowerful like my last camera. It's bright enough without drowning out the image with white flash.

Only drawback is that the Dock is usually sold seperately. I suggest you buy it bundled with the Dock (charges batteries) to save serious $$ on batteries. You can also always use regular AA batteries in a pinch.
