Kodak EasyShare C300
© 2005 Eastman Kodak Company
Easy to use and hard to damage, this 3.2 megapixel digital camera runs on 2 AA batteries and uses standard SD RAM cards. The camera is mostly compatible with the Kodak EasyShare peripherals, such as the dock, but check specifications carefully to make sure. For example, we found the USB cable connection would not work with one of Kodak's photo printers. It did work fine, however, with both Macintosh and Windows computers. Limitations include the lens, which is on par with most throw-away cameras. The interface is easy to use, and the flash is reliable. You can also add any size SD RAM card, which more storage, in addition to the cameras built in memory. The best part is the viewfinder, making it possible for children to easily see their recent pictures. If you're looking for a children's camera with serious features, this is a great consideration.
