Cheap plastic
This camera arrived and immediately I was concerned. It felt extremely lightweight and cheap, as if it would be easily damaged by normal handling. I purchased this camera for a trip to Alaska. Overall, it did take clear images and featured reasonable image stabilization, but I did not think it would hold up well for my vacation. I returned it for a Nikon Coolpix P80, which is solid in the hand and takes GREAT photos.

Easy share is the right name
This camera is truly simple to use. The photos that I have taken so far with it have been great! This was worth the money and I am really pleased that I made the choice to buy this.

Digital Camera EasyShare Z8612IS
My first digital Camera was a Nikon who was given to me by my son.I never have a camera before and i got hooked on it by the way of new technology
of Cameras.When this one stopped operating, i knew i have to get another one.Don't get me wrong,this Nikon i had is a good Camera.So then i found
this Kodak EasyShare 8612IS camera the best.After i have search and keep looking that i like, this one is 4.5 to 5 stars.
The quality of pictures are superbs.After i read the instructions,i experiment to take pictures at work,inside and outside the house,the flowers and plants we have around are so beautiful.I made some mistakes of taking pictures because i forgot to change settings on the mode dial.
But most of my shooting came out nice.Also,it takes about 3 sec.in-between takes.Second con,it takes about 8 to 10 secs. to light the 2.5" LCD.
It has a cover for the lens,the lens itself look like an SLR professional camera.Yet it's true that it is not a pocket camera.I bought 4gb sd and will take over one thousands pictures, one hour of video, which i haven't try it yet.It comes with the strap and a battery,you have to buy your own charger. Oh, the battery last longer than expected, over a week. Well, that's when your not taking pictures too much, i guess.
I still have to get familiarized with the features,after all i just have this last 17th,aug08. I love the color a black surface.As other recommended for potential buyers,check it personally,try to feel in your hand if it is comfortable or too big for your fingers to press tiny bottons of each dial.Like i said if you want a pocket camera this one is not for you.By the way the lens is not retractable, permanently protrude.
Gosh!! i did not realized that.But i keep it.

Another Great Kodak Camera
I have only had the camera for a couple of days and I'm already very pleased with it. Takes wonderful pictures right out of the box in the Auto mode, but there are many different features that I will have to play around with. The 12x zoom is perfect for catching objects from a distance and the Image Stabilizer works wonders. I have tried to shake the camer while taking the picture and it has still came out great.
A few things to know before buying: The camera does not have an electronic viewfinder, so sometimes in direct light(sun)it may be hard to view the LCD screen. It also uses 3 different types of batteries KLIC-8000 (rechargeable Li Ion), CRV3 (Non rechargeable Li Ion), and it also takes 2 AA litium Ion batteries. If you buy the KLIC-8000 battery you have to purchase a separate charger, you cannot charge the battery in the camera. If you are looking for a big zoom camera that will fit in your pocket this is not the camera for you.
