Kodak C140 Review
Looks and features:
At the first look, the Kodak C140 is very nice to see. It is a small and pretty simple basic camera. It comes around Rs 4200 and is a good buy for personal use. It operates on two AA batteries ad suports SD cards. The design of C140 is quite simple and there is no shortcuts in the navigation dial. Some buttons such as delete, preview are invisible as they are presed in a vertical maner on the right side of te LCD, which gives this camera a nice look.
There are not a lot of features to play with and experiment as it is a basic camera. It has only a 3x optical zoom. The LCD screen is of 2.5 inch and I dont like its resolution. When taking pictures the LCD is not so clear, but at the time of reviewing the shots it delivers a good quality.
The resolution of 8MB gives a descend quality pictures. As it is a basic caera we cat take all the technical factors into consideration. The performance is a little bit slower as compared to Canon or Nikon or other brands. It has a inbuilt "Blur Reduction" features which is good and also has a program mode. So you can set your own settings. This camra also supports face detection.
The available scene modes provide different inbuilt settings to take some good pictures. Talking about the video recording, this camera delivers a good quality video. The zoom can be operatied wihile creating videos. It has Kodaks "Easy Share" feature by which you can share your pictures straight to facebook and other such social networking sides. At this low price the small camera delivers some good features and easy to operate.
Positives and Negatives:
The positive facts are,
1. Low Price
2. Easy to operate
3. Bur reduction and Face detection
4. Easy share function
5. Use of AA batteries
The negative facts are,
1. Less zoom capacity
2. Low LCD resolution
3. Lack of shortcut menus on the navigation dial
Conclusion:
So overall this is a good camera for basic use and Kodak is a reliable brand. So I will definitely recomend this camera to beginners. It gives takes some decent pictures ad is easy to operate. On rating of 5 stars I will give it 3 stars(* * *)
