Kodak P880 Zoom reviews

Average rating from 1 review:

Reviewed by Richard Jensen from UK on 24th Jul 2006
Within the fixed lens DSLR range in comparisson with other 8 Mpx e.g. Nikon, Canon, Minolta, Olympus, Sony... there are some cameras with one function or another marginally better performing than this camera. There are no cameras currently on the market that would be as consistently good across all the functions. It is compact, has superb optics, bright display and EVF, great colour balance and pin sharp focus in auto or in manual mode. After flushing the bios with the updated firmware and purchasing the Sandisk Ultra III 2Gb card [to increase the Raw format write speed ... the camera was so good that I have bought the second one, to keep permanently in the car.
