Canon didn't just rest on their laurels, though. In early 2005 they launched a new Rebel -- the Digital Rebel XT (aka EOS-350D) -- which adds a higher ... |

| I have been in broadcasting for 28 years and know quality when I see it.
This Kodak V1233 is everything it promises to be, a small camera with 12megapixel images.
I tested the camera under several lighting conditions and was very impressed with the quality of the pictures.
I don't understand why some reviewers are surprised by small buttons on a small camera. What do you expect ?
This is a great camera for a great price - AND they added a 1gb SD memory card.
Highly recommended for amateurs who want to take professional quality photos. |

I purchased the V1233 December 19, 2007.
Positives: Cheap for a purported 12 Mega Pixel Camera(Lens doesn't allow its 12 mega pixel rating to be effectively used in anything except the most ideal conditions)
I remember when Kodak went in the poor design, poor quality, ditch a decade or so ago. I thought surely they had extricated themselves from that in the 10+ year interval since then. I was wrong. The ditch is now an abyss. Returned the Kodak V1233 to the retailer today and happily bought a Fuji S700 that is twice the camera (even at 7 mega pixels) for less money.
I will never go back to Kodak again, as they have now totally lost my trust. Too bad for a former giant to take such a fall and then chose to remain down on the mat wallowing over customers who try to return as patrons. I repeat, Never again!
Other reviewers are right this isn't a one star camera. The V1233 doesn't deserve even a one star rating, but nothing less is available.
|
| Problems: Negatives: (1)Lacks a useful printed manual. (2)Very bad ergonomics. Uncomfortable, heavy "pocket camera" with crowded buttons all over leaving little room to actually hold the camera.(3)Slow shot cycle even using HS SD memory.(4)Ineffective redeye reduction flash.(5) Ineffective antishake(6)AC charger was D.O.A. (7)1 hour and forty minute wait on the phone only to get poor customer service from Kodak.

| Previously , I reviewed this camera but didn't notice the star system for rating. This is not a one-star camera, and I'm resubmitting my review to reflect my feeling that the Kodak V1233 should be considered an eight out of ten! This is my first small digital camera so I have very little review experience to go on [previously I used a Sony TRV-25 video camera for taking digital stills or used friends' cameras]. I ordered the Kodak V1233 two days ago from CostCo online sales, and it arrived today. The sale price was 9.99, but once state [California] taxes and shipping were added, the entire thing came out to be 0.01 [that's still about .00 below the listed price of 9.99]. Now, why did I buy this particular camera? Number one, I wanted value for quality, and this camera has a 12mp resolution which absolutely beats anything else out there at this price level. I like that, though I don't expect it to last long given the competitive nature of technology companies. Next, I wanted simplicity of use...and I was taking photos almost as soon as I inserted the battery [mainly low light scenes inside my vehicle parked inside the garage]. The pix look great as far as I'm concerned. There are buttons on the top of the camera for selecting HD video or still photos and my only gripe here is how small they seem to be, even to someone whose fingers aren't large. Other cameras in this general category, both cheaper and more expensive, have equally tiny buttons, though, so in that respect the Kodak V1233 is no different. There is a toggle lever located on the shutter button that allows for telephoto and wideangle use, and although I thought the lever might interfere with the shutter that doesn't appear to be the case. After using it a few times, the telephoto/wideangle lever system seemed very natural and intuitive. The 2.5" view window is fine for my tastes, though I could see why some might prefer a bigger screen. There is no viewfinder lens. Photo and video selections are made and deleted via a small joystick-type switch located to the right on the back of the camera body. This is where menu options are selected as well. The camera body is black, although I've also seen white advertised [the CostCo sale only has the black]. There is an photo anti-blur feature that I assume works fine, but can't really say if it's any better/worse than everyone elses. One thing I really like, though, is the timer! I can do a 2-second delay, a 10-second delay, or a combo 2-second, followed by an 8-second delay shot! There is a standard 1/4" tripod connector on the bottom of the camera. Bundled with the camera is a USB dongle that has to be attached either to the supplied USB-to-RCA video/audio cable [for connecting the V1233 to a TV or VCR]; or to the USB camera-to-computer cable [or transferring photo/video]. This latter cable is also is used to recharge the battery [not included is a Kodak 5V AC charging adapter, but it apparently can be bought elsewhere]. There is also a plastic tray/dock that the Kodak V1233 can sit into; I think it is designed to mate with Kodak camera and printer docks for easier photo/video transfer. A nondescript, gray travel bag is supplied for carrying the camera around. Kodak EasyShare software is supplied on a CD. As I noted earlier, I bought this camera from on on-line only advertised sale from CostCo, and in addition to the camera CostCo also included an ATP-brand, SD 2 GB memory chip! All in all, I think this is a terrific deal and for the price is difficult to be bettered. Kodak today doesn't have the cachet that a Sony or Canon carries, but based on what I'm experiencing I'd say that the Kodak V1233 is as good as anything else in this price range.

| Problems: No problems, just make sure the manuals reflect the demographics that the camera is being sold in! |

| Problems: No problems so far [jeez, I just bought it]. It's a bit of a nitpick, but Kodak included two different manuals with the V1233: One in English and French, the other in Spanish & Portuguese. Considering the demographics of this country [USA], I would have preferred that English be paired with Spainish instructions, and Kodak save some paper [and money] by eliminating the French and Portuguese instructions. I also think it would have been a nice touch for Kodak to have monogramed the carrying bag: plain gray looks so blah! |
