Easy to use

Strengths: Light weight, easy to use, good battery life

Weakness: only one I can think of is that you have to reset the time after charging battery and not so good in low light levels

I have really enjoyed this camera. I have a Cannon Rebel that I use and bought this for my wife for ease of use as she does not want to mess with all the settings. This camera has performed well and takes great pictures. Even the kids can use this camera and take great pictures.

Arik's Easyshare Review

Strengths: Very good zoom, Quality is excellent, It is really easy to view pictures and battery last long, it's amazing

Weakness: the toggle button is the only really bad thing about this camera, its a little bulky though

This camera is good for very general picture taking and I like the fact that it has so many diffrent formats, It is good for videos when its around bright light, I reccomend this camera for people who are just getting used to digital photography.

Kodak EasyShare DX7440 4 Megapixel Compact Camera

Strengths: Exceptional speed. No detectable shutter lag time. Very user friendly. Many features.

Weakness: None that I have found to date.

This is my third digital camera and I just love it. The quality of the photos are sharp, clear and true to colors. The shutter speed in Autofocus is lightning fast and enables me to take sports pictures or children on the move. I haven't gotten into trying manual settings as yet and may never have to because the "auto" is so good. I would advise buying and extra battery and an SD card or two....

Kodak EasyShare DX7440 4 Megapixel Compact Camera

Strengths: great picture & lens quality, fast click-to-capture & flash, excellent light management, light-weight, easy & comfortable to handle, perfect shots in automatic mode, great battery life, EASY TO USE!

Weakness: not great for low-light outdoor settings in auto mode (what camera is?), zoom control less intuitive than predecessor (DX6440), popular “scene” settings no longer on mode dial

Anyone shopping for a 3MP to 5MP digital camera should seriously consider the Kodak DX7440. High on my list of priorities was a fast click-to-capture, long battery life, a relatively wide-angle lens, and easy-to-use controls. In short, I wanted a camera that could stand in for my Nikon SLR yet fit in my pocket. The 7440 delivers! The lens (33-132mm equivalent) is not quite as wide-angle as some I...

Kodak EasyShare DX7440 4 Megapixel Compact Camera

Strengths: User friendly buttons, long lasting battery time, will record movies with sound

Weakness: One downside to the camera is that if you take the battery out of the camera for longer than a few minutes the date/time gets reset and the camera will prompt you to set it the next time you turn it on.

The Kodak DX7440 digital camera is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a user friendly mid-range digital camera. The features of this camera abound. Excellent picture quality, big 2.2 inch LCD screen that is visible even in bright light, and review/delete buttons right on the camera make it a pleasure to use. The rechargeable battery lasts longer than conventional AA batteries, and even...

Kodak EasyShare DX7440 4 Megapixel Compact Camera

Strengths: Easy to use, little more zoom and larger view screen then most camera's in this price range, a lot of picture taking features.

Weakness: I agree with most of the weakness already listed here: not the best with dark indoor photos, date and time get reset when you take the battery out, cant change zoom while recording.

This is my 1st digital camera; I think it’s a great camera for the beginner at this price. I was able to take it out of the box install the batteries and start clicking away. Also, still have many features that I have not gotten into yet. I would suggest getting a camera bag and at least a 256-memory card right away. The internal memory can only hold about 20 photos at 4MP, with the 256 card it...

Kodak EasyShare DX7440 4 Megapixel Compact Camera

Strengths: Excellent optical viewfinder with diopter adjustment, 4X zoom,very fast "shudder" speed, easy controls, top quality lens

Weakness: date has to be reset after recharging battery - but no big deal

I've had this camera for 4 months and still love it. I checked out Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Olympus,etc. but had trouble seeing out of their low quality optical viewfinders. I did not want to use the LCD screen because it uses too much power and more importantly you can't keep the camera steady enough to take a good picture when holding it out to see the screen. This camera has a relatively large...

Kodak EasyShare DX7440 4 Megapixel Compact Camera

Strengths: THE CAMERA IS EASY TO USE. THE LCD SCREEN ON THE CAMERA IS LARGE AND EASY TO READ, EVEN WITHOUT MY GLASSES. THE CAMERA IS LIGHT, AND HAS A GREAT ZOOM. SO FAR, THE PICTURES HAVE COME OUT GREAT.

Weakness: THE BATTERY THAT COMES WITH THE CAMERA LASTED FOR ONLY A SHORT TIME.

AS A NOVICE CAMERA USER, I RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE. IT IS EASY TO USE AS THE SOFTWARE WALKS YOU THROUGH ALL PHASES; FROM TAKING THE PICTURE TO PRINTING.

Kodak EasyShare DX7440 4 Megapixel Compact Camera

Strengths: Excellent quality photos, large view screen, very fast response time to take picture, great zoom, NOT an electronic viewfinder (EVF) and relatively lightweight.

Weakness: Just OK quality videos, can't change zoom during video mode, requires special battery (not AA) and physically larger than many newer model cameras.

This camera replaces an old Kodak digital camera with 2.0 megapixels. The DX7440 takes fantastic pictures even in standard mode. The higher resolution "fine" mode seems only slightly clearer and not worth using up the memory card for the minimally better picture. Very quick to take pictures, shut off and turn on. Very light for it's size, but for this excellent zoom, I can forgive the size. The...

Kodak EasyShare DX7440 4 Megapixel Compact Camera

Strengths: It takes the picture at the same time the button is pushed, no delay.

Weakness: The camera manual projects a faster use of the energy in the battery pack, supposedly caused by the high resolution screen which was a desired feature of the camera.

I purchased this camera for the rechargable battery pak, the high resolution screen, reasonable price, and ease of using the camera while taking pictures. My use of the camera has been more than satisfactory. I also really like the speed of response when the button is pushed to take a picture. The only disappointment has been the projected life of the battery pak. I was told that it was due to...

Kodak EasyShare DX7440

Kodak's EasyShare digital cameras have consistently proven to be among the easiest to use of any I've tested, and the DX7440 is no exception. Its fully automatic exposure control performs surprisingly well under a wide variety of conditions, and the range of manual exposure controls extend the camera's capabilities nicely. A wide range of preset scene modes help with special shooting conditions,...
