Kodak Easyshare C875

Announced in August 2006 the C875 is the new flagship model in the entry-level Kodak EasyShare 'C' range, and the most interesting yet. Where most previous C series cameras have offered basic, beginnner-friendly 'point and shoot' operation at very low prices, the C875 transplants the functionality of Kodak's higher-end Z and P series cameras into an inexpensive, compact body. This - plus the 5x optical zoom and 8MP resolution - puts the C875 in direct competition with Canon's A series and some of the higher-end models in the Olympus FE range, yet the price (well under $200 if you shop around) is incredibly low for the features and specification on offer. So we decided to find out if this budget-priced Kodak really is punching above its weight or if it's a lightweight through and through. Let's start with the headline features:

  • 8.3 million pixel 1/1.8" CCD sensor
  • 5x (37-185mm equiv.) Scheider-KREUZNACH Variogon lens
  • 2.5-inch wide viewing angle LCD screen
  • P/A/S/M modes
  • 22 scene modes
  • ISO 64-800
  • Smart scene feature
  • KODAK PERFECT TOUCH technology for better, brighter pictures
  • MPEG-4 VGA movie mode
