"Good Entry Level Camera" on by Tech_2K
Pros: Decent construction, features and pictures are good to excellent for the price.
Cons: plastic housing and battery life as with all lower end digital cameras.
Summary: This is a decent camera for what you pay. Don't let the other low score reviews fool you. I have taken excellent pictures with this camera using low lighting or with the flash, and outdoors the pictures come out perfect. I also own a Canon A530 (5 megapixels) and the pictures produced by both cameras are comparable in image quality. The plastic housing is actually pretty sturdy and has a good feel to it when you hold the camera. This camera is easy to operate and pretty much dummy proof. I will give it a 9 out of 10 star rating. Sure you can find better cameras and pay more or you can find cameras for about the same quality / price range, but a lot of those manufactures will not back up their products when they fail or need to be replaced.

"Poor low light performance in spite of flash" on by npodila
Pros: compact size, fast image storage after click, powered by alkaline batteries
Cons: poor low light performance; no image stabilization
Summary: I tried taking pictures in low light conditions with every variation of scene mode and aperture. Each and every time the picture blur indicator came on and the picture looked blurry. My point-and-shoot regular film camera took fine pictures in identical light conditions.
I am planning on returning this camera and getting one with image stabilization - that might work better -
"Great if you like awful pictures" on by rfox316
Pros: Nice looking camera, easy to hold, cheap price
Cons: Awful Pictures in all kinds of lights, for every 1 good picture, you get 5 bad
Summary: I had this camera for all of one day before I took it back and upgraded to a canon. DO NOT purchase this camera even if you are on a budget.

"Great Price but poor Indoor Picture Quality" on by jmgibso
Pros: Great Price.....but at a cost
Cons: Photos indoors are poor
Summary: After researching this camera on various websites, I read a few reviews indicating that this camera performs poorly indoors and/or in poor lighting situations. I ignored this comments, thinking that the probably came from camera gurus that were trying to obtain a professional quality photo from a $139 digital camera. I was wrong. After shooting several pictures, I immediately realized that the previously read comments were accurate. I returned this camera today.

"“Great little Camera for such a low Price”" on by flash4512
Pros: LOW Price, Ease of Use, Picture Quality, Compact Size!
Cons: no image stabilization.
Summary: I got this camera with the dock station for only $159.88 @ Wally World. As for many of my customers the ease of use is important to them. So lets see you install the Ni-MH battery pack and hook two plugs to your computer and install CD software and 1 GB SD card in camera and you’re done. Now your camera is always charged and ready to go. After taking photos put camera back in docking station and push one button and presto your photos are on your computer. Then you can edit or E-mail or burn to photo CD or just take your SD card from your camera to Wally World and print them for 15 cents a print.
I Previously had a 3.2MP Kodak with docking station before this one and lets just say with this 7.1MP one when I took a photo of the Christmas tree at night with flash it looked like I took it out side on a sunny day just perfect. So I had to turn off flash to get photo of the lights. I had no problem with blurred photos maybe some persons were drinking while using. The Cnet editor while normally very good sure missed the boat on this one. And while smaller is normally a good thing I don’t have little girl hands and I don’t want something I have to push the buttons with a pencil and I think it is plenty small enough already.
And while it may not be the greatest for the photo Experts for the rest of us it’s really the last camera you’ll ever need and do yourself a favor get the C733 so you will have the docking station. This will save you batteries and hassles of transferring your photos to your computer. And it’s still half the size of my 35mm film camera. So for the price it’s really the best camera on the market and Kodak stands behind their product. And if you take videos just buy the Hitachi DVD camcorder it’s also cheap so the Cnet editor won’t like it either. This one does all the junk the others do and then some and soon as your done just stick the DVD in your DVD player it’s a great deal also.Updated
The one you need is the Kodak EasyShare C703! Not C733 as I said before sorry about that. But it's not to late I think they are still on sale at Walmart.com for $159.88
