Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Kodak Easyshare Z812IS 8.2MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom
Customer Review: For The Money, You Can't Go Wrong.. Battery Issues? Read The Manual!
Summary: 5 Stars
Just a few quick comments, as you have so many to wade through!
The BATTERY ISSUE is clear-the manual states: "Lithium digital camera battery CRV3, rechargeable Lithium Ion battery, OR AA LITHIUM! No where does it indicate AA Alkaline-they will barely power this camera, So, if you are installing AA Alkaline, and it powers up, you'll get 5 minutes. Rechargeable AA Ni-MH batteries, won't even boot the device. So, the catch phrase is LITHIUM, NOT Alkaline.
I purchased my Z812 IS refurbished,($141.00, like brand new,)and it works flawlessly with AA LITHIUM batteries. I've taken about 100 pix and have been exploring the menu system, and not a hint of the dreaded battery gauge on screen. (I'm waiting for my rechargeable to arrive.)
This camera does many things well and offers excellent pix at pretty much any setting. I am particularly impressed with the stabilization and auto focus at full zoom. Well done!
I'm still familiarizing myself with it, but wanted to clarify the battery situation for those who may not seek this camera for that reason. At the prices now, it's a must buy for those looking for image quality and loads of features in an Ultra-Zoom (Not to mention, HD pix and Video) for minimum cash outlay.
Great buy.
