 Kodak Z1015IS Camera January 6, 2009
Everything about this camera purchase was far superior to many other internet purchases I have made.
Good stuff January 6, 2009
So far so good, i really like this camera. researched it long and hard before buying and it does seem to be best buy for the money.
Excellent camera January 1, 2009
I have been the proud owner of a Kodak Z710 for 2 years. It is a great camera especially for outdoors shots. I was able to stand on the sideline of my son's high school football games, snap random shots (not really focusing on anything in particular) and then zoom/crop the shots for some spectacular images. I've uploaded some of those under the Z710 review.
But, I was ready to upgrade since the trusty old Z710 wasn't great indoors at the basketball courts. I could never figure out the PASM settings so that I captured the fast action in dreadful gym lighting. I actually broke down and ordered a digital SLR from another retailer and gave it a try for a good month. I was surprised that the results weren't that much better than the Z710 so I have returned it.
Today, I headed off to try the Z1015 and I was very happy. The firmware upgrade on Kodak eliminates the wait time between shoots and if you turn off the automatic preview after each shot, you cut down on more time. I have just a 2MP memory card in it and I think that is slowing it down a bit, too.
However, tonight I played around with the camera. While sitting on my couch, I used the 15X optical zoom to zoom in on ornaments on the Christmas tree. Then, I cropped them further. Was I shocked! I only have the Christmas tree lights on and the images are stunning. You can see the detail as if I were standing right next to the tree (the couch is about 12 feet away from the tree).
For the regular photographer, this is a great camera. If you are considered a digital SLR, you might want to give this camera a try first. I would never have bought it but my older version Kodak just couldn't achieve good pictures in poor lighting conditions. This camera's higher ISO capability just might solve my dilemma. We'll find out...between 3 sons, we have 6 games in the next week. I'll post an update after I test my new Z1015 at the courts!
 Poor LCD, problems with auto-focus, returned disappointed December 30, 2008
Spent about a month researching this model and last year's (the Kodak EasyShare Z1012 10.1MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom) online. Reviews for the old one were more glowing than for the Z1015IS, but it seemed like once users upgraded the firmware to 1.03, all their problems with the Z1015IS vanished. The clincher for me was the longer zoom lens (15x vs 12x), and the 28mm wide angle - so I bought one. I was excited to find that it came preloaded with 1.03 (along with a separate sheet describing the changes in the firmware update).
BUT, I was disappointed in these aspects:
Viewing angle of 3" LCD - The LCD washes out above the horizontal, making it difficult to take pictures from below eye level, like when you're taking a picture of your kids, but don't want to look "down" on them.
Low resolution of 3" LCD - The specs answer this question, since the 3" LCD has the same resolution as the previous 2.5" LCD, so the pixels themselves are just bigger, yielding a blockier image.
Poor auto-focus, even at wide angle - couldn't get a clear picture of my family in front of the Christmas tree, something my old Kodak EASYSHARE Z730 - Digital camera - 5.0 Mpix - optical zoom: 4 x - supported memory: MMC, SD and my father's Kodak EasyShare Z712 IS 7.1MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom did with ease.
Now I'm not a pro photographer, so maybe the PASM settings would have solved my problems in certain situations, but I feel that's too much work for a camera that presents itself as "Smart". And if the Perfect Touch processing is required to get a good picture, the time it takes to process (an option with the new firmware) is simply too long to know if you "got the shot".
I realize I may get flamed in the Comments for not taking the time to "get to know" the camera, but that's not what I want in a superzoom digital. My mistake for not researching more thoroughly. Returned the Z1015, and will look more closely at the Z1012, since it seems to be merely a slight upgrade from the older Z712, rather than the (poorly) redesigned Z1015.
Excellent buy for the average person December 23, 2008
Excellent digital camera for the average person. Takes outstanding pictures. My son loves the camera and that is something coming from a 17 year old. I read all I could about inexpensive digital cameras and realized the best buy was the Kodak Z1015IS. Most of the problems listed for this camera are operator headspace and timing. I would recommend this camera to anyone.
