The carrying case for the Kodak seems to work pretty well. I like the feel of the materials used, seems stury enough. I like the little netting inside that makes a pocket to hold some accessories. I use it to hold an extra memory card and the A/V cords it comes with incase I am at someone's home where I can hook the camera up to a TV. The only thing I don't like, which I have seen in other reviews, is that you just have to be conscious of when you unzip the case to bring the camera out. It fits loosely, so it could easily just slip out if you are not careful. Not a huge deal. Overall, I'm very satisfied with it as it does its job pretty well.

I bought this Kodak about a month ago, so have not used it extensively. My previous Kodak (650) had issues with delay time between pictures so I was very pleased to see this one had less than .3 second shutter speed. It is a way faster point and shoot. There are many options for the type of picture (beach, panoramic, night, action, etc.) and it is fairly easy to figure out. I was mainly looking for more MPs and higher zoom. This has 10 MP and 10x zoom which is really nice. I video taped my daughter's choir the other night and it is nice to be able to zoom in and out during recording, but you do lose focus momentarily. The playback sound on the camera is very muted, will have to see how it transfers to the computer. Would have liked to have a view finder for times when the screen is washed out by bright light, but for the price I paid on Amazon ($60 cheaper than same camera at Walmart), I will live without it. Also would have been nice if the camera was a little more stylish. All-in-all though, I am very happy with it.

Bought this camera after doing some research. First digital camera ever owned besides my cell phone. Love all the features, although don't know how to use some because just not that camera savvy. Have used it to do some pics & videos around the house, but the big event is at end of March. Love how clear the pics have come out, video is slightly choppy but not bad for not being a video camera. Price was awesome!! Speed of delivery was great, had within a week of order!

The performance and ease of use of this camera is by far above and beyond expectations. If you shopped around for prices like I did then you found the differences to be around $60-$100. The fluctuation of prices caused me concern. I thought the quality might be questionable if prices could flex like that. But the reviews I read caused me to be curious enough to try it. I love it. It's not a $600 camera but it'll perform better than any other camera at this price point. We just had our third child and I've put it through the ringer. I would recommend looking over the manual though. This camera is a step up for me and even though it is basically a point and shoot camera to really get some awesome effects and quality there is some tweaking and steps to take that reading will help with. I know this isn't the perfect camera, exspecially for the professional photographer. But for a father of three that just takes family and vacation photos it's great. The 10x zoom, 10 megapixels, and speed between snaps is great. It's a bit bigger than my last camera but it comes with a lot more options and still fits easily in cargo pants side pockets. I would highly recommend it. Oh...and my wife would like me to mention the reading the manual thing again. Something about reading when first getting the camera not when trying to take that precious moment shot when time is of the essence. Something like that.

Bought the Z915 for vacation in Mexico. It lasted 5 days and then the screen turned white and I couldn't review or take any photos. Normal use of the camera, no banging it around or dropping it. Just don't think the Quality is there.

Color saturation is very good, especially in P or M mode with exposure control set to negative values. Easy to see how your picture will look using viewfinder.Takes great pictures in low light, especially using tripod. See review at YouTube.

Seems to work very nice, fast and looks good too. Kind of loud when it starts up though.

I usually buy HP printers, but needed a new printer for a remote location and decided to try this one due to reports that it uses less ink than other printers. At this point I could care less how much ink it uses because the @%&**! thing won't even print a simple envelope! It keeps saying it cannot detect the paper edge and spits out a blank envelope. I spent 3 hrs on the phone with the techies who finally got it to print and then told me I needed to create an envelope doc and print from that rather than printing from a letter or other doc (which my HP printers have no problem doing). When I went to print another envelope later and had the same trouble. I had to create several different envelopes before I finally got it to print. Tonight I pulled up the same envelope doc that printed last time and now it won't print! Argh! Aside from the envelope printing problem, I don't find the print quality on this printer to be as good as my comparable HP printer, except when printing on photo paper (which I rarely do). Save yourself some grief and steer clear of this lemon.

I purchased this printer via a Top Rated Seller on eBay. I hooked it up and installed the Software. After printing a test/alignment page, I decided my first print would be a photo. The printer came with 3 free pieces of 4x6 photo paper so I used one of those. I will say that the photo came out and was at lab quality. I highly recommend this printer to anyone looking for a great value as a printer/scanner/photo printer. I also had zero problems hooking it up to my network to print wireless. Feel free to ask any questions about this printer you have. Setup: Kodak ESP 5250 Dell Studio XPS 435T Intel Core i7 920 with 6GB RAM Windows 7 Home Premium Comcast Cable with wireless Linksys Router.

I still can't believe I am still using the start-up ink that came with the printer and it is only half empty. I purchased this about a month ago and have printed photos, my work for college, letters, project components for my grandson's school project, and loads of other things. The ink use is amazing. I think this printer is making it's own ink somehow!!! Compared to my Lexmark that I replaced with the Kodak, the Lexmark would have alread gone through $60.00 in ink and I would be half through with a second set of cartridges. It is well worth its weight in ink! I wish Kodak had gotten into the printer business a long time ago. The quality is beautiful. I compared a photo I printed with one I had printed at a local store and I couldn't tell the difference. The printer is easy to use and the software is user friendly. The only thing that I wish was different is the software program itself. The printer has to be turned on to use any of the software functions, but that is really minor. I just love the printer.

I have been mostly a HP and Canon printer buyer. After immense frustration with cost and price of color ink and toner for my recently purchased HP color laser and Canon pixma photo printer--I decided I am done paying for overpriced toner and ink. The ESP 5250 has a nice basic feature set (printer/scanner with provided software works well with wireless networking built in) and my three kids have already gone through one black and one color ink cartridge. No more calls from kids while at work that printer doesn't work or pink pages are being printed from color laser or need to buy $80 x 4 toners cartridge costs... Keeping it simple this product works without ripping you off on ink and toner pricing ($9.99 for Kodak brand black ink!). Highly recommend you update software and printer firmware from Kodak's website, improves performance (they include software updater tool for this).

I LOVE THIS DIGITAL CARD. When they say high speed, they're not kidding. It's absolutely lightning fast.

Great price, fast shipping. no complaints here and now I have room for 4000 photos on my new camera!
