NEEDS MORE BATTERY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 I JUST PURCHASED THE KODAK V1253 12MP, USED OF COURSE. THE CAMERA WORKS OK BUT I FOUND OUT THAT AFTER A COUPLE OF PICS THE BATTERY LIFE (DIES) WHICH IS NOT GOOOD!!! I EVEN WENT AS FAR AS PURCHASING A (NEW) BATTERY CHARGER AND AFTER CHARGING ALL NITE IT STILL (DIES) OUT AFTER A COUPLE OF PICS..SHOULD'VE KEPT MY KODAK 6.2 WHICH HAD AT LEAST 2.5 OF BATTERY LIFE AFTER BEING CHARGED AND BETTER PIC QUALITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Should've Returned It Within First Few Days of Purchase Overall I am not happy with the Kodak V1253 12 megapixel camera. It is very user friendly for changing modes for various settings. I have found that outdoor photos turn out great. The majority of photos taken indoors turn out very dark and blurry. I just can't get any good photos indoors. I would not purchase this product again, nor would I recommend it to a friend!
good looking but horrible image quality Images taking are very blurred, no matter what I tried it is still come out the same result. Also, when you set in the "review" mode, the lense still protrude outward.
I highly NOT recomment this camera at all.
Decent mid-level camera with some great features Pros:
Easy to use-software simple to navigate
Plenty of adjustable camera settings for various situations
Camera quickly powers on
Microphone works well with video mode
Steady pictures come out very clear/crisp
3" screen makes it easy to take some quality pictures
Cons:
Poor quality low light pics (even with flash on)
Does not always sync correctly with Kodak easyshare software
Sometimes will not turn on properly-immediately powers down after pressing the on button
Certain camera settings produce unclear pics if you don't have the steadiest of hands (or it's windy)
Needs to come with an A/C charger
Overall, not a bad purchase. This camera's price and features make it a good competitor to some other brands.
Returned it in 30 Mins I ordered this camera from Amazon and it came in no time flat which was great. Unfortunately the camera is going back in less than 1 hour of ownership. I took the camera out of the box and loaded it with an 8 GB SD Card and tried out the video recording capability. Now this camera can record at 720P and it records in Quicktime MOV. I have a Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook and the video was completely out of sync, grainy and washed out. I wonder if mine was defective because the video was NOTHING like I had seen on the online sharing sites.
