LetsGoDigital has a review up for Kodak’s classy 8 megapixel shooter, the
EasyShare P880. They find it to be a good middle ground
between easy to use consumer cameras and those pricey, but feature laden,
D-SLRs. We covered the basics when we saw this in
August, but just in case you forgot, it has a wide-angle 5.8x zoom lens, a 2.5-inch screen, an accessory shoe, accepts
SD cards, and shoots in RAW if you’d like. As for the review, they do like the lens, the extra wide-angle of 24mm being
a definite plus, along with great focal length; and there are also a good amount of controls that you don’t normally
find on a $600 semi-compact camera, such as a manual zoom ring, external flash mode, and aperture, shutter, and manual
control modes. It’s definitely not as fast or feature rich as a real D-SLR, but the overall verdict seems to be that it
should make for an easy to use, and well priced, transition into the higher end realm.
For those of us who don't need the functions of an SLR but want a great lens.
