+ So far, so good. A "Which" best buy recommendation and one certainly gets a lot for the price, I hadn't thought about a Kodak camera, but the 10x zoom was attractive and the image stabilisation seems OK.

- Not sure about build quality, a few flimsy looking bits, like the zoom control lever, but time will tell.

+ very light and easy to handle, easy to see the different settings. excellent quality of photos. Being a hobby I wanted an inexpensive,easy camera, and this one certainly fits all the criteria

- the cover for the batteries is a bit on the flimsy side when re-inserting the batteries or memory card. would have been better with a metal casing.

+ Offers very good manual controls for someone who wants this freedom yet not an SLR.
Runs on AAs - ideal for traveling.

- The zoom controller (slider) is a little fragile and i can see this as being the first thing to break, but take care of it and youll be fine.

+ This camera is lovely. It feels solid in your hand and yet is still compact and light enough to fit in your pocket. It has loads of different features and all are easy to access. Each one explains what it does when you switch onto it. The pictures it produces are beautiful and I would recommend it to anyone.

Expert reviews for Kodak EasyShare Z915

PC Advisor expert review - by Tim Moynihan

When the 10-megapixel Kodak EasyShare Z915 was announced at this year's PMA show, one feature stood out on its spec sheet: its 10x optical zoom, rarely found on compact cameras, and definitely never seen on a camera of this price.

This Kodak EasyShare Z915 review continued on PC Advisor

Product Features

Camera Type	Compact
There are 2 main types of camera: The SLR and the Compact. SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex. SLR cameras use a prism to reflect the exact image as seen through the lens and so offers a more accurate viewfinder. SLR cameras have detachable lenses offering greater flexibility if you wish to take a variety of different photographs. Compact cameras have a built in lens and an ‘above lens’ viewfinder which is less accurate but they are often cheaper, more sleekly designed and easier to carry anywhere with you to capture that moment perfectly without having to fiddle with complex settings or a bag full of lenses.
resolution (Megapixel)	10

Optical Zoom Ratio	10
The amount by which the camera optics (lens) can bring the subject closer.
Screen Size in Inches	2.5
Screen size is measured diagonally from corner to corner.
Digital Zoom Ratio	5
Not to be confused with optical zoom, digital zoom enlarges a portion of the image thus simulating optical zoom. In doing so, some image quality is lost.
Face Recognition	Face Detection
A function for automatically detecting peoples faces and correctly adjusting the focus and exposure to take the best photo
Image Stabilisation	Optical Image Stabiliser
If a photo is taken at a slow shutter speed, or at a long focal length, the effects of ‘hand shake’ will be amplified. Some cameras come with built-in image stabilisation which is designed to act against this to produce sharper images. It’s great for low light shots without a tripod, like at a gig.
Image Stabilisation	Yes
If a photo is taken at a slow shutter speed, or at a long focal length, the effects of ‘hand shake’ will be amplified. Some cameras come with built-in image stabilisation which is designed to act against this to produce sharper images. It’s great for low light shots without a tripod, like at a gig.
Colour	Black
The main colour of the product.
Colour	Red
The main colour of the product.
Colour	Blue
The main colour of the product.
Media Format	SD Card
This is the type of storage that your digital camera or camcorder uses to save images to. The main types of card media format: Compact Flash Micro SD MMC (Multi Media Card) SD Card (Secure Digital) SDHC (Secure Disk High Capacity)
Media Format	SDHC Card
This is the type of storage that your digital camera or camcorder uses to save images to. The main types of card media format: Compact Flash Micro SD MMC (Multi Media Card) SD Card (Secure Digital) SDHC (Secure Disk High Capacity)
PictBridge	No
An industry standard allowing images to be printed from camera to printer, without needing a computer. CIPA PictBridge Standard Website
Weight (g)	220
The weight of the product in grams.
Flash	Yes
Whether or not your camera has an in-built flash. Flashes are essential for fully capturing a low light image.
Series	Easyshare
The name the manufacturer has given to this model’s range.
WiFi	No
Wifi allows you to connect your device to wireless routers or modems which allows you to connect to broadband internet.
Longest Shutter Speed	16
This is the longest exposure your camera will take. The longer you take a photo for, the more light is let in and the more motion is captured. Long shutter speeds can give fantastic, artistic results. Try photographing the night sky at 30s or longer to see how the rotation of the Earth causes the stars to curve through the scene.
In-Built Memory (MB)	32
