10 Times Optical Zoom !! Kodak Z740 Easyshare Digital Camera

What Is Kodak EasyShare Z740?

The Kodak Z740 is a 5-Megapixel digital camera that has a 10x optical zoom (38-380 mm equivalent focal length), stores images in the internal 32 MB of flash memory or on the SD/MMC memory cards. It has a USB port for transferring your images to your computer or printers and a EasyShare dock connection.

The camera runs on 2 AA-type batteries or a single larger disposable battery (supplied). The camera has an adaptor that lets you use 55mm filters, that can also serve as a miniature lens hood. The camera has automatic, scene modes and manual modes such as Aperture, Shutter Priority and Manual.

The camera has ISO range of 80-400, shutter speed range 8-1/1,700 sec. (more on it later) and aperture ranges of f/2.8-8.0 at wide angle, f/3.7-8.0 at telephoto.

Build Quality and Ergonomics

The camera is hefty, and the case is made of plastic that seems relatively durable. The fit and finish are less refined as the cameras by major competitors. The plastic is not smooth and has rather large-grained irregular texture. The memory card door is slightly flimsy.

The camera has a convenient handgrip and the shutter release has reassuring feel to it.

The camera uses a small joystick for menu navigation and as an OK button when pushed. I dislike it. It is difficult to be precise with it and sometimes it misunderstands your intentions. It is especially bothersome when you have to change something in a hurry.

The menu system uses large icons and is relatively easy to use, but there are short delays in its operation (nothing major though).

The camera lets you select parameters (aperture, shutter speed, etc.) directly on the screen in the manual modes (Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, Manual) as well as exposure compensation without using menus by just using the joystick. I like the concept, but the joystick itself could be better executed.
