Cons: batteries discharge quickly, flimsy plastic battery door, battery compartment shallow, indoor theatre pictures too dark

from Shopping.com My husband bought a DX6340 and was pleased with it so I bought one, too. Shortly after that the battery door on his camera broke and would not close. from Amazon.com This is my second Kodak Easy Share - my first one lasted about 3 years and had some kind of electronic meltdown. Ah, it had served me well, and nothing electronic lasts forever. from Amazon.com Overall I liked the camera, except that it took exceptionally dark pictures in medium-to-low light conditions, and the night mode is useless. The zoom is great, given how rare it is to find a 4x zoom even in newer cameras. Picture preview and deletion is handy, except that the joystick in a little touchy, sometimes hard to handle without clicking down while navigating. from Amazon.com The DX6340 does take excellent pictures. As with most digital cameras there is an annoying delay between pressing the shutter release and the actual picture "event", but unless you spend a lot more money, it's something you live with when you go digital. from Amazon.com However, sometimes a few pictures can be blurry. Also one day I woke up and my screen was broken on the inside when it was stored and packed correctly. Though it did have a warranty and kodak fixed it for free. Now I have to buy a new battery door for it because the metal piece for electricity conduction fell off! from Amazon.com This is my first one, and probably my last. If something ever DOES happen, I will spend the money to get another one. Kodak Easy Share Cameras Really ARE easy. I have take pics even in the dark of it snowing and they come out GREAT. from Amazon.com I like the camera overall - you get good zoom, it is light enough (without either the fit-in-pocket feel or sticker shock of sub-compacts), its user interface is intuitive, its reviewing features are great, it offers the capability to take super short movies with sound if the muse strikes you. The controls are mostly automatic, which is good for a beginning digital camera enthusiast. from Amazon.com Okay, this camera takes okay pictures. Landscapes are a little blury, zooming sucks.. but the battery door broke just like everyone else says. from Amazon.com
