A review of the Kodak EasyShare One/6MP digital camera has been published at CNet. The EasyShare One/6MP is an update of Kodak’s EasyShare One camera. It features 6 megapixels resolution, but apart from that has basically the same specifications as the previous model, such as a rotatable 3 inch display, WiFi/wireless network capability and a 3 times optical zoom.
With 4.8 out of 10 points the review result is not flattering - only ‘medicore’.
The review summary:
“The good: Large twist-and-flip display; solid Wi-Fi implementation.
The bad: Difficult-to-use touch screen and interface design; overprocessed photos with serious purple fringing; inability to focus in very dim environments.
The bottom line: Run away–the Wi-Fi photo-sharing doesn’t compensate for the Kodak EasyShare One/6MP’s myriad usability and quality issues.”

A review of the Kodak EasyShare C663 digital camera is available at imaging resource. The Easyshare C633 offers 6.1 megapixels resolution, a 3x optical zoom and a 2.5 inch LCD monitor.
Here are some of the review findings:
“Based on ease of use alone, Kodak’s EasyShare digital cameras are a beginning photographer’s dream. While that simplicity has long been Kodak’s hallmark, some of its latest models have been upping the ante with new features and functions not seen on entry-level models.
[…] The camera struggled with low-light shooting in general, with lots of noise and softness in images captured at the high ISO sensitivities. There was also an overall sluggishness to the camera, from its start-up time, to its shot-to-shot capabilities, to accessing the various features via the mode dial. […]
Having said all that though, the camera produced some excellent imaging results in daylight, capturing unusually good color and accurate skin tones.
Despite a few shortcomings, the Kodak C663 is a great camera for both a first-time user and for someone who wants a little more creative control of their pictures.”

CNet have reviewed the Kodak EasyShare Z612 digital camera. The EasyShare Z612 is a 6.1 megapixel dSLR like camera with a long 12x optical zoom lens, which is supported by image stabilization to reduce the risk of blurred photos, especially when using the longer end of the zoom. Users can not only choose between a 2.5 inch display and an electronic viewfinder, but also have a wide range of exposure controls at their hands, ranging from fully manual over aperture and shutter priority, to scene modes and fully automatic, which should make it an ideal family camera.
The Kodak EasyShare Z612 was rated 7.2 out of 10 points, a ‘very good’ review result.
The review summary:
“The good: 12X optical zoom; full manual exposure controls; optical image stabilization.
The bad: Noticeable fringing and image artifacts; ISO 800 not available at full resolution; no manual white balance.
The bottom line: The superzoom Kodak EasyShare Z612 has style and plenty of features, but its image quality leaves a bit to be desired.”

A review of the Kodak EasyShare Z650 digital camera is available at imaging resource. The Kodak EasyShare Z650 is a reasonably priced 10x ultra zoom camera with 6.1 megapixel resolution and 2 inch LCD display. The EasyShare Z650 should be a camera suitable for the whole family, offering a range of exposure modes from fully automatic and a plethora of scene modes, to fully manual and shutter and aperture priority.
The results of the review:
“I liked a lot about the Z650 from its looks, handling and exposure controls to its EasyShare heritage and compatibility. But it’s hard to be enthusiastic about a camera whose power switch is hard to move, whose popup flash won’t stay shut and whose long zoom isn’t stabilized. The Z650 has SLR pretensions but it skimps on some basic digicam features.”

The Kodak Easyshare V603 digital camera has been reviewed at DigitalCameraReview. The EasyShare V603 is an ultra compact 6.1 megapixel camera with a 2.5 inch display and a 3x optical zoom.
The review results:
“The Kodak Easyshare V603 is a stylish, capable camera. Kodak has a done a good job of improving the usability of the controls while keeping the camera’s style. Also improved is the operation speed of the camera — with minimal shutter lag and good cycle time.
The image quality of the camera is good, with a slight tendency to overexpose. Kodak works pretty hard to make it easy to take pictures, so along with the easy camera operation, it can also plug right into their Easyshare printers to print out your Kodak moments.”

However, with a street price of about $299, it’s a bit expensive when compared to similar models by other manufactures.”
