Kodak EasyShare C663 Digital Camera Review
Dan Havlik writing over at Imaging Resource has reviewed the Kodak EasyShare C663 digital camera. 'The Kodak EasyShare C663 is the latest example of just how far lower-end digital cameras have come. Boasting a 6-megapixel CCD sensor, a Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon 3x optical zoom lens and a generous 2.5-inch LCD, all for just under $300, the C663 offers great value for the price. Add that the C663 is the first model in Kodak's line to include its Kodak Perfect Touch technology and this digital camera seems to be a steal.
There are some trade-offs though. While the Kodak C663's 6MP sensor will give you more than enough resolution to make prints as big as 11x14s -- and maybe even a little larger -- like a lot of cameras in this class, images will be noisy in low light at ISO 400 and above. Similarly, while the 2.5-inch screen is quite large, with only 115,000-pixels of resolution, the quality of the live view and image playback are worse than average. And last, while Kodak Perfect Touch seems like a great feature to bring to an entry-level model where most users will want the camera to do all the work, accessing the feature is not as easy as it should have been, and results were only hit or miss.'
