4 out of 5 stars Wonderful simplicity   January 6, 2009
Scott Mouser (Orlando, FL)
I have learned over time that when shopping for my father for tech, it is not enough for a product to simply be easy to use. Since we're talking about cameras here, if a device has say, easy steps to change flash settings, that is no good. The steps themselves are easy, yes, but it is the necessity of steps which faults it.

Thus, I may declare that the Kodak M1033 is wonderfully step free. Powering up the camera is a one button affair, no jog wheels to confuse. One button brings up the camera modes and the same one button confirms the selection. Plus, if you do bring up the menu, the camera helpfully hides all of the options that are not used by the active mode. When my father first opened the box on Christmas day, it was completey intuitive for him I use. I'm making a note here, huge success. (Of course, I did cheat a little by opeining the box the day before and changing all of the initial settings.)

The camera does still hold some surprises for power users as well however. Manual picture taking has some fine options and features to be found, including a large ISO range for a camera of this range, useful color options, and for once a surprisingly accurate auto-white balancer.

I do however knock the camera down one star for a few complaints I had as a power user. If you are shopping for yourself and consider yourself to be a casual user, then just consider this a five star review and move on.

The digital zoomis completely horiffic and will destroy a d picture it is used in, even at low levels. The menu has an option to permanantly turn the digital zoom off. Use it. Although the camera claims to shoot HD video, video in any resolution looks completely unwatchable. And finally there is no option to disable JPEG compression, or change the compression ammount, and as a result, there is a fair bit more artifacts and muddiness as the pixel level than I would care for.

We have been pleased with this camera so far, no problems and it seems to do everything we need it too. Definitly not a professional camera but it more than meets our needs.

It is a little slow on start up and takes its time between pictures but the features and ease of use make up for this. we especially like the video feature and how easy it is to switch between video and picture.

I'm loving my new compact camera that fits so easily into my purse. The battery life is great, the 3" LCD screen is fabulous and with Smart Capture I just have to point and shoot !! My friends have all seen it and want one now too !!! I am definitely glad I chose to buy another Kodak !

The M1033 is a compact camera that takes excellent photos.I especially like the 3" LCD screen and the layout of the controls.The included rechargable battery will save you money in the long run and can be charged with the included AC adapter or USB cable.I do have a few minor gripes though:the battery life is short,the buffer takes a long time on large MP shots and the joystick is touchy.The included Easyshare software is buggy so I use Google Picasa instead.When making DVD's I use DVDFlick(free) or Sonic MyDVD,either one will convert MPEG-4 as long as you have Quicktime installed.
Having said that I have a few recommendations:turn off digital zoom,do not use an ISO setting higher than 800 in P mode,I recommend buying an extra battery(KLIC-7004),I also recommend using a high speed SD card because it takes faster shots and uploads to your PC faster.

Pros:
Ergonomic
Compact
High quality photos and video
Smart Capture
Large screen
16:9 mode
Supports SDHC cards up to 32GB

Cons:
Buttons can be touchy
Doesn't remember mode when powered off
Battery life
Easyshare software
