Kodak EasyShare CX7300 Digital Camera

Pros: Rugged, very cheap, exceptionally easy and fun to use
Cons: Fixed focus lens results in soft photos with no details, no audio recording with movies

A Bargain Camera I purchased the Kodak CX7300 as my first digital camera so that I wouldn't have to keep borrowing my friend's digital cameras. My wife and I take many pictures and have two above-average quality 35mm film cameras, so ...

Pros: easy to use, small, extremely durable
Cons: Grainy video with no sound or lighting or zoom.

***Updated 1/22/2009.  I STILL use this camera.  I was informed about a month ago that it is a "huge" camera, and by someone else that it is a "dinosaur".  I have tried 2 newer verison of the Kodak Easy Share cameras, only have them break ...

Pros: Photo quality is super, ease of use, size, cost.
Cons: Battery life, no optical zoom.

I recently bought this little gem for my wife as a Mothers Day gift. She had stated that she wanted a new camera but it had to be easy to use. Up until know we have not really gotten serious about the digital photography craze. We have hung on to ...

Pros: High quality, easy to use, great features.
Cons: High rate of battery consumption

My Logitech camera broke, so I bought this. So far it seems to have been a good investment. The LCD screen allows you to preview your image. The flash can be set on or off, and it can also take pictures in black-and-white or sepia tone. The ...

Pros: Easy to use, compact
Cons: Eats batteries for breakfast.

Picture it. Cuero, Texas. Summer 2005. Our baby turned three months old and we had no pictures that we had taken ourselves. We decide to purchase a digital, and unlike most folks, we head to the town pawn shop. This was 8 block trip that we thought ...

Pros: Good design, easy to use, inexpensive
Cons: no audio in video recordings, no optical zoom, battery drains fast with screen on

Before buying this Kodak Easyshare CX7300, all I used to take pictures was my walgreens camera and my cell phone. I know, sad huh? So I decided to buy something cheap to start with. It took me a week before I found a store with this camera in stock. I ...

Pros: Ease of Use, Good affordable price, Memory card slot.
Cons: battery life.

I never really had a camera myself. My parents own a 35mm camera which is one some (like my parents) cling on to. Wile heading off to college, it was about time for me to get my own. I wanted digital, my parents didn't trust them. Boy were they ...

Pros: Want great pics for $200? Get this cam and some memory!
Cons: Lack of 'advanced' features, but this $150 model isn't for advanced people anyway.

I bought this camera based on reviews here and elsewhere, and upon the really low price. I have been amazed at the value. **PROS** -Use it straight out of the box. The camera has few settings that affect picture taking. While this will upset some ...

Pros: Price, ease of use, quality, durability, software
Cons: Zoom, internal memory

I bought this camera because my old 35mm just died. It was only $99. I actually bought 2 digital cameras for $99 and wanted to try them out to see which one best suited me. This one was 10x easier to use so it won hands down! First of all, I am not ...

Pros: durable, easy to use, photo dock/printer option, beginner camera
Cons: small LCD screen, poor picture quality, no optical zoom, cumbersome software

This is my first digital camera. My in-laws got it as a X-mas gift for my wife and I. At the time we had dinosaur 7-yr old computer that could not print/email digital photos so they also purchased the available photo printer for the camera. The photo ...

Pros: None
Cons: Most pictures red eye. Effective range of flash low. Warranty not good.

I recently purchased the Kodak 7300 at Shoppers Drug Mart. It was purchased at the end of November for Christmas and was used Christmas day. I wasn't too happy with the results of the pictures that required flash. Also, every one of the subjects (even ...

Pros: It is a simple "Kodak moment" type of digital camera. It is easy to use.
Cons: It seems to be made of plastic and can damage easily. Video is not great.

This is a nice camera. I was looking for something cheap with good picture quality. This camera was at a fairly good price and came with a free battery charger and rechargeable batteries at the time I purchased it so I bought it right away. It is a 3.2 ...

Pros: Picture quality, lcd screen, kodak easy share software, kodak quality
Cons: battery life, shudder lag

I bought this camera a few months ago, and I have yet to have a problem with it. It is a quality camera, at a reasonable price, and best of all, takes awesome pictures. I bought this camera because I needed a camera to take pictures to post on-line ...

Pros: Very EASY to use and very Easy to SHARE.
Cons: Pictures could be sharper.

This is an affordable digital camera.  I am a gadget phobe and detest having to learn the various increments play_w2("I0092600") of new, difficult gadgets; however this one is "Easy".  I guess that's why they named it Easy Share.  It was ...

Pros: Fragile and easy to scratch, and has a small delay after pressing button
Cons: Good photos, and good close ups, great software program and useful docking station

This is a good Camera. It takes good pictures and is even better with the docking station. With the docking station you get a one button load to your computer and an easy to organize way to store your photos. There is a bit of a delay after snapping the ...

Pros: Inexpensive and easy to use
Cons: Batteries, batteries, batteries

I'm technically challenged so I wanted an inexpensive and simple camera.  This is both, but if you buy a Kodak EasyShare CX7300 you might want to invest in a battery company while you're at it.  Every time I take it out I have to put ...

Pros: Great value in a camera, good features for price.
Cons: Video doesn't have audio, camera is bulky, battery life is not good.

I purchased one of these cameras in 2004 for about $200 in Canadian funds at the local pharmacy. Yes, I know, thats a lot for a camera like this; but I was desperate for a digital camera at that time really. Even though I am waiting on a new camera, I ...

Pros: Takes great up close non-moving photos
Cons: Zoom is terrible (dark or blurred)

I have owned this camera for 4 years. Taking Up close photos are great. However, if I zoom in on a person that isn't within arms reach away from me or in a small room with me, it is dark or blurred.  Tried to crop them to zoom in ...

Pros: Low cost, durable, clear photos, good color saturation
Cons: Fixed Focus Lens, small flash

I've had this camera for several years and its always performed flawlessly. Yes its true the lens is a fixed focus so you can't compare it to a 35mm SLR. But that doesn't mean it takes low quality photos. I've used this camera even in low light ...

Pros: Great Camera for beginners
Cons: No sound on video

I bought this camera at amazon.com almost 4 years ago and its still working fine. Obviously it’s all scratched since it felled a thousand times and sometimes the pictures come out blurred but that’s just part of being an old digital camera. I'm ...

Pros: easy to use, easy to upload photos
Cons: screen is rather small, battery door could be stronger!

My Kodak EasyShare was purchased about a year and a half ago. Since then, I have used it nearly every day to take photos of my son (you know how parents are) and am constantly filling up both the memory card and the internal memory.

It has served us well through numerous trips and around the house.

During various jaunts around town, the camera has taken two major tumbles (that I know about!) and still takes great pictures. In the last fall, however, the battery door broke, so it is now necessary to hold it tight with your fingers while attempting to take photos, which is a real pain.

Apart from that, the memory card seems to have suffered a little. Instead of the original 72 pictures we could take before, it only has room for 25 now. Not sure what that is about!

Pros: Easy to use, pictures come out great, can take short videos
Cons: The battery life...ugh!

I received this camera from my parents as a birthday present last year. I didn't have a digital camera and never got around to buying one, so this is the one I received.

Let me tell you, I am not a photographer at all. Amateur doesn't even begin to describe me. So I was thrilled that i didn't have to peruse the manual for hours just to figure out how to turn the thing on. In a word? Easy. This camera is easy to use, takes excellent pictures, and is a great digital camera for the average person.

Only complaint? In the year I've had it, I've went through massive amounts of batteries. Batteries go quick in this thing, so I suggest investing in the more expensive ones!

Pros: Easy to use, looks good, great price!
Cons: None that i know of yet!

This camera was my first digital camera i ever bought. the pictures are easy to take, different settings for day and night for video and its all self-explanatory. i am waiting for the printer for it and im sure that that will be perfect as well!! best money ive spent in a long time! not dissapointed in the least!

Pros: Small, light weight.
Cons: Photo quality.

We bought this to replace an older digital camera. The best feature of the newer cameras is the memory card. My old camera had a cable to attach to the computer. It was a time consuming task. This new card (with the portable card reader they also sold us) is a Godsend. I can plug that thing into any computer and transfer picture files - and any files for that matter. We also bought extra memory cards at 128K and I am actually using it for carrying smaller files to clients (Excel spreadsheets, etc.)

My problem is how easily photos get blurred. One slight move of the camera during picture taking and the photo is useless. My old camera was not that sensitive. I have started using a tripod for some photos. Perhaps I just need to get use to this one. Also, my son has a more expensive digital (Sony) and he does get better quality pictures.

Pros: Great in combination with printer dock. Easy to use. Dont need computer.
Cons: Crappy LCD screen. RED EYE nightmare!

Ok this camera sucks.

Crappy LCD screen, barely can see anything.

RED EYE reduction option? It actually gives you red eyes. I have red eyes, my wife has red eyes. Even my newborn has red eyes. Urggghhhh. Look my Olympus that I bought 9 years reflects your beautiful natural color eyes. No red eye nightmare there! Come on KODAK whats wrong with you.

Anyway not happy with my camera. BUT. I bought it in tandem with Kodak Easyshare printer dock. And that item rocks. Its awesome. You print your own photos. I am very happy with this feature. It is so convenient. I am my own photo lab.

3.2 megapixel really gives great quality pictures. So crappy LCD is just that - LCD. It doesnt represent quality of the pictures. They are great. EXEPT..... Yes you remember RED EYES.

I am thinking about keeping my printer dock and either returning the camera or somehow exchanging it for a more expensive KODAK camera and paying the difference.

Pros: easy to use, affordable, can be used with the printer dock.
Cons: no audio on the movie pictures.

I received this camera for Mother's Day. It is so easy to use that even my kids can use it. I love the fact that after you take the "perfect shot that is not quite in the middle of the screen", you can move it left, right, up or down to center your subject.

Pros: - Tones (black & white , Sepia) - Ease of use - Internal Memory
Cons: - Battery Hog - Slow Processing Time

I purchased this for the birth of our families new arrival, and this little camera took excellent photos!!

It's got everything from photo effects to zoom, and better yet it's so easy to use!

This is definately the camera to get if you're considering one :-)

Pros: Great STYLE,Good picture,ZOOM
Cons: IT takes time for the software to operate

The Kodak Easy Share CX7300 is one of the gorgeous Digital Camera i have seen.
It has goo picture quality,nice Zoom power. the operation is too easy for any user.User with little experience can use it easily.
But the most important is the style. You will love the interface of this CX7300.

Pros: red eye reducer flash, lightweight, nighttime settings
Cons: nothing that I can see

I recieved this camera as a gift in April. I have used it to take family photo's mainly. The camera is lightweight, and easy to use. Its included software could take up less hard drive space, but, it is easy to use. The price isnt bad either on this, around 100 dollars. As they say, you get what you pay for.

Pros: pic quality, size,easy to use, and price
Cons: battery life

I got this camera as a gift last Christmas. I didn't want anything fancy, just something to take nice quality pics of my son. I couln't have asked for a better bargain then this fun to use camera. It isn't big, which is nice. It is very easy to use even without instructions. It offers up to 4x magnified zoom on pics that you take and also has good digital zoom. I use a 32mb sd card to store any pics that I take and I can hold up to 50 pics on it!! For a 3.2 mega pixel I believe that to be very good. I also love the black & white and Sepia feature that this camera offers. I can make the most beautiful antiqued or B&W pics. The only gripe I have with this camera is the battery life I go through at least 4 AA batteries if I use the camera for the whole day, but at least they are inexpensive compaired the the litheum batteries that I have had to use in the past. Over all this camera is a great deal for a beginner or experienced digital camera user.

Pros: No problems
Cons: No problems

My camera has behaved wonderfully. Have taken at least thirty pictures and one sixty minute video and still on the original battery set. Excellent software. Excellent pictures. I have had the camera for about two months.

Pros: Great durability, good pictures, nice flash, and easy to use.
Cons: No sound on video. Hard to see if its not light enough for the video's.

I have had this camera for 2 years, it has great durability! I spilled ice-cream on it, and it still worked fine, I have dropped it many times, and I accidentally washed it... and it still works. I wouldn't recommend washing it, as I may have just been lucky. But the pictures come out fine, and it is easy to get on my computer. It is really easy to use, and takes good pictures. It works well at night also. The video is also good, except it is sometimes hard to see if its not light enough. And there is no sound, which is okay for some things. The battery does not last long at all if you use regular batteries. But if you use rechargeable, it works really good. For me it works until I am out of pictures to take!

Pros: Price. Kodak brand name.
Cons: poor quality pictures, no optical zoom, very poor low light picture

I have had this camera for about a month now. I bought it because I wanted a cheap camera to take on an overseas trip. I got what I paid for. The camera has no optical zoom. The picture quality is only fair. Close up photos are somewhat fuzzy. Digital zoom does not produce a clear picture. It is an OK cheap camera but if you want to take good shots you should look for a different camera. Overall I can not recommend this camera.

Pros: quick, easy, light weight, easy to transfer photos to P.C
Cons: mini clips use loads of memory

I grabbed 2 Kodak EasyShare CX7300 Digital Cameras with bonus printer dock & gave 1 to my parents, we both agree that this is a great buy expecialy if you are not very 'up with it' technology wise, I think it takes pretty good photos considering that it would be one of the cheapest digital cameras on the market to own as a 'starter'. The different options that are on the actual camera is amazing. The only down side to it that there is no sound with the mini clips you can record. I would be happy to recomend this camera for almost anyone.

Pros: Easy to use, easy to setup, very clear text when browsing menu, nightmood is cool
Cons: Software doesn't install at all.

This is one great digital camrea, but it only ONE downside.. the software did NOT install, but i found a way around it.... that goodness. All in all this is a great camera, i will give it 9.5 out 10


Here is how do get around it

(read if you are using WinXP and software will NOT install)

Plug in the camera to you USB port


go to the following

Start>All Progams>Accessories>Scanner and Photo Wizard.

That EASY

Pros: Battery life, Easy use, EasyShare
Cons: not very crisp screen

I got this camera at a hotel in a luck of chance game I was so happy because the camera was 140$ camera but I only spent 18$ on this camera. Anyways I would very much recomend this camera for a new photography.
