Good flash coverage; Easy to use; Good colour rendition

Kodak EasyShare Z885 review

Lots of manual controls; fast burst mode.

Sluggish; noise issues at ISO 800 and above.

While it suffers at higher ISO sensitivity settings, the Kodak EasyShare Z885 is a surprisingly flexible, affordable camera.
