With the exclusive Kodak Color Science image processing chip, your pictures come to life just the way you remember them. A new high-speed digital processor chip, advanced algorithms, and hardware acceleration features let the Z700 make simultaneous, split-second decisions to produce rich, vibrant, true-to-life colors in almost any lighting situation.
Each time you click the shutter, the Kodak Color Science chip performs an instantaneous and advanced analysis of collected scene data to identify and adjust multiple factors that influence picture quality. The scene light source is detected, and adjustments are made to capture bright whites and true, vivid colors under difficult lighting conditions--fluorescent, tungsten, or daylight. Scene content is analyzed for luminance, focal distance, subject-matter orientation, and color to determine the correct exposure and capture the natural details, accurate flesh tones, and rich colors you see in your composition.

I HATE THIS CAMERA
[ Posted: 2008-11-16 ]
I seriously hate this camera. It keeps dying! Even if I charge it forever, it only lasts for 5 minutes once you turn it on. My crappy $50? camera lasts weeks before needing to be charged. The features are okay though. Sometimes the pictures come out blurry, but I like the videos you can take. Also, it's too fat and big.
Not good!

The printer did not work, it only printed 1/2 of the picture. I am having a real hard time with trying to get it replaced, and I had to send it back to the place that Kodak has that works on the printers, and they could not fix it. They told me they had to send it back to the manufacturer, Kodak, to get it replaced. I am still waiting on the replacement.
This is the first and last thing, I will buy on Amazon!
OHHHHHHH, so THAT'S the problem!
[ Posted: 2008-08-25 ]
I went through two battery rechargers and three sets of rechargeable batteries before I came here and discovered LOTS of people are having trouble with the camera doing an auto-shut-off AS IF it's out of batteries when actually it's probably a battery compartment problem. I confirmed that it's a compartment problem on mine by putting in brand-new alkalines: the camera still shut off after a few seconds.
Other than that problem (which is finally fatal in my camera, but after 2-and-a-half years of steady use), I liked the camera and recommended it to many people. It's easy to use if what you like is a mostly automatic camera (that's what I like---I don't mess with the manual settings), and it has a good zoom, and I thought the picture quality was quite good considering the price of the camera.
I won't recommend it anymore, though, now that I see the battery problem is common.
Awful Purchase From Wall Street Photo
[ Posted: 2008-05-27 ]
The shutter does not open all the time and when I sent it back to Wall Street Photo they sent the same camera back to me again when I have asked for a refund....
KODAK RIPS OFF THEIR CUSTOMERS WITH THIS CAMERA
[ Posted: 2007-06-14 ]
I purchased this camera for my office. I had to convince my boss that Kodak was a good camera and the dock system was the way to go...unfortunately my recommendation turned out to be a nightmare!! We spent almost $300 for the camera and dock station - haven't taken 75 pictures with the camera and it is junk! When I turn the camera on it extends the lense about 1/4" and then retracts and shuts itself off. I tried all of the sites from Kodak and after numerous correspondence with Kodak the conclusion is: 1. I can send the camera back to them and for $125.00 they will fix it. (I can buy a new one for $129.00) 2. I can send the camera in and they would sell me a "refurbished" camera for between $250-$300. OR 3. Pitch the piece of junk camera and buy anything else but a KODAK....I'm going with #3 !!! Save your money and time trying to deal with Kodak!!
