Love the pics and video. Just got this camera -had the 980 before and it broke. I loved that camera and all the pics and videos I took were amazing so I am surprised to read the comments here. I can now compare and with what I've done as of today,only got the camera 3 days ago and the pics and videos look amazing. In between shots however, it's hell since it takes 4ever for the camera to be ready for the next shots. Does your's do that too? And what program did you use for your video on YouTube?
@grease1963daniel yes it is a slow camera between shots, I think I used Windows movie maker in Vista to make this video, great for slide shows, but won't work well in 7. Its crashes :(
Thank you for this video. I'm not convinced this is the camera for me...I had the previous model to the z990 for awhile and really couldn't bare the horrible grain on the images. Great multi-purpose camera for the price, but does yours also have a lot of grain and slightly blurry edges on photos of grass?
@kenbad Yup I agree the previous model had more grain. But doesn't the new model to a much lesser degree? I feel like Kodak fixes things much slower than the time between the two models.
r@XtremeHDx Yes I do, I was playing with the "dramatic" mode in several shots which I decide I didn't like, I also decided I dont like the richer color modes that much.
@saraniTi28 No, this is not an SLR and the lense is not removeable, it is highly versitle though, I like it and it has an incredible amount of optical zoom, I cant afford an SLR right now and I like alot of telephoto which is alot of exrta cash if you go with a DSLR
Still pleased with your choice ?

@zume The previous model had a crappy sensor, thats why this one is only 12 megapixels because it is a much better sensor

how do you take widescreen shots with the Kodak Easyshare Max Z990?

@TwilightFusionX there is a panaramic option, requires you take a pic, pan over and line up one side with a ghost of the previous pic
