Kodak FZ41 Digital Cameras 16.44 Megapixels 4 x Optical Zoom

This is a great little camera for the price. The sound quality in videos isn't great, but the still picture quality is excellent, and the video quality is as expected for the resolution of the camera. I got enough video and pictures to fill an 8 GB SD card out of a set of standard duracell batteries, which seems reasonable to me. I mount the camera to my bike's handlebar and take it on nature trails and the camera has handled all the bumps and jostling okay. I wouldn't want to drop it or keep it out in the rain but it's rugged enough to handle what I've put it through so far.. Update after almost 2 months of use... As I mentioned above, I have this camera mounted on the handlebar of my bike, which I've taken for many miles on bumpy roads and dusty dirt trails. So the camera has been subjected to a lot of vibration, bumps, and shakes. It still works as good as new. At least one review mentioned problems with the auto-focus, and another with the USB cable. I've had no problems at all with either. Jut connect the cable from the camera to your PC and it pops up as an external hard drive from which you can copy, paste, and delete just like any other drive. You can connect to the camera by USB cable even when the camera batteries are dead. But note that if you use rechargeable batteries you CANNOT recharge the batteries through the camera and USB connection. You have to have a separate charger for your batteries. Good AA non-rechargeable batteries last me for a couple of weeks, typically taking several hundred still photo and half an hour or so of video. Batteries are cheap, and I prefer a camera that uses standard batteries that I can get anywhere, rather than a special type of rechargeable battery that you can only get online or at a specialty battery store when you need a replacement or spares. This camera is simple to use, with standard, straight-forward and intuitive menus and buttons for controlling the settings, auto-flash, viewing your pictures, formatting the optional SD card, and etc,.

Easy to use. Good pictures for the value.

It's cute for a day then the batteries die and you can't even charge the camera. The screen glitches and has an error connectivity message. It is a good size and takes good pictures. Not amazing quality but good enough. Good zoom and very easy to use and learn but still. This was too annoying so I returned.

good quality

Was in better condition that expected for a refurbished item. Takes great pics for the price with very little effort. Love that I can transfer photos w/USB cable rather than taking out the SD card. My current computer doesn't have a card reader, so this little option is a big plus. Camera also isn't eating up batteries like I thought it would. Exceeded most of my expectations. Only problem is delay between hitting the shutter button & actual photo taken. I needed this for photographing animals in my rescue. Most do not sit still very well. That said, I'm very happy with what I got for the price I paid.
