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.

Customer Reviews

Buyer Beware - Starts out nice but then dies at end
Bought it was pleased with it - had it awhile and now it kills fresh batteries after only a handful of pictures. A friend had one and said she took it to best buy and the guy told her the camera had "died" and new batteries are not the fix - there was no fix - same thing happened to mine.
Please consider this possibility if you are buying this camera - would guess mine is a 2-3 yrs old and its dead. Suggest you buy a better name brand. I'm not buying Kodak next time.

Great Camera
I've had this camera for about 3 yrs now, and it's never given me a single problem. It takes very good pictures of scenery, but I don't think the night vision mode is particularly great (are any cameras that good @ taking shots in the dark though?). I've never regretted purchasing this camera.

Great camera!
I love this camera! I've had it for over a year and would recomend it to anyone. I bought this camera after taking a backpacking trip with my friend and seeing the great shots her Easy Share took. I absolutly love it. I often take video of my 9 month old son because I don't have time to whip out the big camera. The video isn't super but it's fast and simple. I just use the Windows Camera Wizard to get all my photos off it so I've never used their software, but I've never had a problem. ::thumbs up::
