Handy Little Contraption to Have!.......2001-11-29
Good basic camera that needs to get back to basics.......2001-10-09
I will start off with the good. Kudos to Kodak for really trying to integrate the Palm Pix into the M50X platform. It fits nicely, and folds up to take so little room that I often forgot that it was in my pocket when it wasn't attached to my M505. When attached, it attaches quickly, easily and tightly to the chassis. Images can also be stored on a SD/MMC card, which was a nice addition for the M50X series.
As far as picture quality, when the pitures turn out well, they are exceptionally good, better than you would think you would get out of a Palm-based camera.
Now for the bad. They should have kept it simple. In order to try and make it a little more sophisticated, they added the ability to adjust the focus so that you could take detailed close-up pictures of business cards all the way up to an infinity setting. The problem is that the Palm screen does not have the granularity to show whether or not you have something in focus, making each picture a hit or miss prospect. This makes the product as technologically advanced as my forty year old box camera. With everything else that Kodak got right, they should have left it with the fixed-focus lens that the other models have, which is truely heartbreaking.
It is a good camera, and, if you just leave the focus alone when you get it to where you like it, it will work just fine.
A great camera for everyday use..........2001-09-23
