Editorial Review:Product Description:The Schneider lens of this fine quality Kodak Easyshare Digital Camera 7590 has a 10x zoom that has a 35 mm equivalent of 38-380 mm focal length. That exceeds most SLR lenses but this camera is relatively compact when you consider its amazing optical performance. Included 3x digital zoom brings you much closer. With up to 5 effective megapixel imaging, you can achieve a 2576 x 1932 high resolution for still pictures. It also does movies too, up to 640x480 VGA resolution - higher than many camcorders deliver - with sound. There's a built-in automatic, multimode electronic-flash. Programmable autoexposure and auto focus modes make operating this camera truly Kodak easy. Exclusive KODAK Color Science Image Processing Chip optimizes image quality to the max. The 7590 works with optional KODAK EASYSHARE Printer Dock Series 3. This camera can easily transfer images with both Windows PC and Macintosh computers and is PictBridge compatible to make prints without a computer.

Only if you need the features
10x Optical Zoom - Yes
PC Flash Socket - Yes
Those are the only reasons I bought this camera. To get those features in a better camera would cost quite a bit more $$$. I downgraded from an Olympus SP-320.
The image quality from the Olympus was much better. Better detail in shadows, better color saturation. But it didn't support the remote flash or have the optical zoom range this Kodak had. The flash especially was a feature I needed.
If you don't need the PC socket, look elsewhere. If you do, you can't beat the price.

Great Camera!
I love the fact that you can go in and change the settings and that makes for control over taking great pictures! This is my first real digital camera and I'm using it for a class in the Spring. Though it doesn't take that good of night pictures, it more than makes up for it in the way it takes low light pictures! Great Job and props to the people at Kodak for creating a great design on a camera!!!

A great little start-up camera
The Kodak Easyshare Z7590 is the third we have purchased for the newsroom of a small daily newspaper. It is small enough to go anywhere with you yet has a "heft" that makes you feel you are holding an actual camera rather than a plastic toy. All three cameras have been extremely reliable, holding up under daily use by a number of different photographers, some gentle and others not-so-gentle. With a 10x zoom it is capable of going out and getting that distant shot. Has acceptable speed for most sporting events and at 5 mp produces an image with enough resolution for all our needs. Flawlessly connects to all our computers (Mac with OS 10.2). Battery life is always a factor, and the Easyshare battery life is great! This is a perfect first camera for the amateur, casual photographer or anyone who does not absolutely have to produce a poster-size plus image.

Great camera
I use this camera in my work. We bought it for newsletter photos, etc. I like it so much better than my personal camera that I've been allowed to use it for personal times and I've had really good luck with it. I just discovered the sports button on the dial and it's been great! I got my son's baseball hit in action! very cool! I now want to buy my own! I'm totally an ameatur and this camera makes me look pretty good!!

Broke after the warranty period
I brough the z7590 camera in July 05 and at that time it was one of the best in terms of features and price. I used it quite a bit - the usual stuff - family parties, camping or long trips on car. Outdoor shooting was pretty good - especially if the lighting is good the camera gave pretty good pictures. Indoor and low light performance is below average (even shooting in best quality mode). On outdoors I should mention the long zoom performance was poor. For example when I shot the golden gate bridge (from the nearest view point) on a bright sunny day the camera only gave a pale red color to the bridge :(
After 1.5 yrs the flash is now not working. What puts me off badly are the options for repair - a quote of 150$ for repair, a minimum charge of 50$ for the Kodak folks to just take a look at it, or a silly trade in program where you get like 10-15$ discount on refurbished models.
Overall average performance, poor customer service and the fact that the flash broke after a year, I am not going to buy a Kodak again.
