I've done now 1,000-shot with the black C613. The operation is very simple and well structured. With 2 AA batteries 2300mAh I always can make about 240 shots or 220 shots (because I have the LCD brightness set in economy mode), incl. 20 night shooting with the flash and image long considerations on the large 2.4 "LCD display. The motif image is sighted on the LCD display, what you look there will actually be held without displacement as a photo. The lack of viewfinder is replaced perfectly by the display. The image quality is unique, even when shooting with 3.1 MP, and then a DIN prints A4 photo. Razor-sharp images, superb color and super-fast trigger, which is not too late responding when it rushes in moving Motven. Great setting modes for all möglchen lighting conditions. A unique price-performance ratio and an acceptable size of digital camera. The only drawbacks: battery cover may wear out someday. I think that's a Kodak problem because at 2 St. the CX4230 and 4200 the flap is already canceled, since the pressure of the batteries can cause fatigue. The colors of the images at dusk, darkness and distant motives are not clearly reproduced.
