Any camera that works is a great camera. Just keep taking photos because everything in your world should be saved for everyone to see.

Yea, that's a problem!!
I ordered a little Micro-USB to USB-C adapter.... As well as USB-A to USB-C cable.
Then there's the USB connector that looks like the front of a Toyota. Tom-Tom uses that.
I hope there is nothing after USB-C.

I have this camera it would fit in my pocket but the outfit doesn't. Take pretty good picture still but it takes almost a minute to write the raw file.

I saved several thousand dollars yesterday.

I stayed home and didn't shop online.

I guess you really need to pick your subjects then, like maybe an elephant reaching adulthood. That would give you enough time. This shot you took is first-class 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇

Interesting rig. And nice rendering of the flower arrangement.

They do make smaller tripods.

Yes, using this camera, I'm reminded of the slow start-up times of digital cameras in the old days. This Kodak takes five seconds to be ready, and it takes almost as long to save an image to the card. I think there is a way to keep it turned on but asleep, with the power button waking it up. What's odd is that the power button doesn't turn it on. I have to flip open the LCD.

Funny! I popped an SD card into the camera and took some pictures. There was nothing on the card. I checked the manual, and it has a limit of a 1GB card. I inserted a 512MB card, and it works fine.


That's because the camera only recognizes Fat16. Larger cards use Fat32 or ExFat.

Nothing wrong with 4MP, can produce nice 8 x10,s al day long.

It's just the camera limitation not so much the FAT16. FAT16 supports 2GB.

Yes, Kodak always seemed to put their own unique spin on things ! Mostly these things proved to be very GOOD - but not always ....

I have a similar old Sony pocket camera that I put inside a Ziplock bag and carry in my pocket when kayaking or doing something that will involve splashing.... It works great!
