Conclusion: hot "little" camera
Review: I just got it in the mail today so far i love it. The camera didn't come with a charger for the battery but amazon always has my back so I'll get it from here. The camera is small i like that plus the 12x zoom is off the wall. We will see how it works out i have the ext service plan and a case with a 2gb card. I hope to have fun this summer

Conclusion: Have to send back defective
Review: I have used several Kodak Easyshare cameras over the years and know several people that have and love this camera. I do believe I received a defective camera and the seller has agreed to let me return it for a refund. I also do not think this reflects on the camera itself.

Conclusion: a need to vent
Review: Ok, I am officially venting about my camera! I will never by another Kodak Product just because of their customr service department. I've never had any problems with the mechanics of the camera but a small rubber door broke off that covered the usb port, I know it's not a necessity but I like things like new. I thought OK I'll just call and get another. Oh No. Not that easy, they politely told me it was under warranty but they could not sell me that small door, it would have to be replaced by a trained service technician. Whatever, it's held on with a small rubber ball that you stick in a hole and probably doesn't cost 1.00. They also said when I send it back that if they decide they can replace my camera, which I have taken every effort to keep in emaculate shape, with a refurbished one. A REFURBISHED ONE! Over a small rubber cover...Come to find out after much research today, Kodak keeps a tight reign on parts etc. so you can't get them from repair places without going through Kodak. Oh, they did offer me a deal in the end they said I could send them my camera and they would let me upgrade with a 15% off coupon! What!!! I just told them to forget it.

Conclusion: Kodak Z712 IS
Review: Easy to use camera for indoor or outdoor photo shots. I don't require a $500+ camera or HD camera. Kodak has higher priced cameras with more options, that might be better for some else's personal requirements. Kodak EasyShare Z712 IS 7.1MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom
Evaluation:
Conclusion: fantastic camera
Review: I am not a great photographer, but with this camera, I take great pictures. Easy to operate (easier yet if you read the book). The zoom lens takes remarkable pictures of birds, deer, all kinds of nature.
I highly recommend this camera.
