Amazon.com Product Description
With its 24-60mm lens (2.5x), the Kodak Advantix C750 camera lets you zoom in for intimate close-ups and back out again for group shots. For those occasions when you can't zoom out far enough, you can switch to panorama mode and capture that sweeping landscape or get the whole group. To ensure that you always know what your image will look like, the C750 uses a real-image viewfinder that works no matter what print format (C, H, or P) you're using. The handy midroll change feature lets you switch film cartridges at any time. This lets you share your camera, but keep your film separate; you can also switch between black-and-white and color film or organize your images by theme.

The C750 flip-up flash sits up far enough from the lens to help reduce the unsightly red-eye effect often caused by flash photography. The C750 automatically adjusts its flash settings, including close-up flash and fill-flash, to give you realistic results under all lighting situations. Even if your main subject is off-center, the wide-area sensor and smart multispot autofocus system detect it and bring the subject into sharp focus. Kodak includes the APS magnetic information exchange system to record the data from each scene. This data is recorded on your film's magnetic strip to help your local photo lab optimize the lighting and color of your prints.

To protect your exposed film, the C750 has a safety interlock film door that won't open until it senses your film is completely wound back in the protective cartridge. This camera also looks after your battery power by turning itself off after 150 second of non-use. You can also include the date and one of 41 messages, in 12 languages, on the back of each print.

not a photo genious not to be confused with photosynthesis .......2007-04-03

This camera was for my mother and she takes photos everywhere she goes. She is known as the pictures woman. Family reunions, fish fries, gatherings of any family group and many many nature pictures. She has gone through a lot of cameras in just the past year and this one seems to be the best one ever for what she needs. I want to thank you because this is a major part of her life and you just made it easier. About the title, she gets lucky and would never consider herself a photo genius but and her love for nature inspired to write the photosynthesis as my form of humor. Again thanks for the speed and condition and the easiness of the operation of the camera. Amazon and your affiliates are a dream come true. I will always shop here for the unbelievable prices and quality

Disappointed.......2005-10-27

As SuePDesigning1 wrote, I 2 purchased this camera based on the excellent reviews it received from my number 1 research tool and "bible"-Consumer Reports Magazine. I had the camera for approximately 3-4 years. It took wonderful pictures for a "point and shoot" camera. The picture quality was worth the extra price i paid for the specialized "Advantix" film. Pictures from this camera rivaled those I had previously taken with a 35mm camera and were tons better than those I took with throwaway cameras. I was proud to carry it with me. It fit into my purse very nicely and I could whip it out anytime the occasion arose 2 take a picture. My audiences just loved those pictures. When it stopped working in the middle of my picture-taking at an important event about 2 months ago, I too thought the battery needed to be replaced. We replaced the battery. About 2 weeks ago I was taking pictures and the camera stopped working again. Again we purchased a new battery thinking the 1 we had just purchased was bad;the camera still didn't work. Our experience to get some satisfaction from Kodak exactly mirrors the experience of SuePDesigning1;in fact,our stories are the same except we got mysteriously "disconnected" when 1 troubleshooter tried to transfer our call to another unit that may have been able to further assist us. Needless to say we were not beneficiaries of a coupon or a throway camera and we're left with all of this Advantix film. I was going 2 purchase another Kodak Advantix camera just to use the film but I think now I'll go with a reputable digital vendor. Thanks for letting me vent!

Would not recommend!!!.......2003-11-24

I bought this camera 2 years ago based on the rave reviews I read here. I really liked the camera and felt that the picture quality was good, it was easy to use and despite a sluggish zoom I felt that overall I got a pretty good camera for the money. Rercently, I was taking pictures and the camera just stopped working. I put in fresh batteries. Still nothing. Bought more batteries thinking the ones I had were duds. The camera still refused to work. I checked the Kodak website for repair info, called the recommended company and was floored to find that the repair cost was going to start at the same price I PAID for the camera. The only way they would be willing to remove the film that was still inside would be if I had it fixed first! I wrote Kodak via email and received as their reply that the camera had only a 1 year warrantee but they were sending me a disposable camera and a coupon ($10) good for another Kodak camera. Had I known that I would be paying over $100 for a camera that would last for only 2 years I would have never purchased it in the first place. Speaking with local repair shops they have advised that the best customer service is with Canon and Olympus. My next camera will be from one of those two. I doubt I will ever consider any Kodak camera in the future.

Well worth the extra processing fees.......2003-06-24

This is by far the best little camera I've owned. After losing my Pentax in a burglary, I searched for a compact, versatile replacement and decided, after reading the reviews, on the Advantix C750. I've taken about 8 rolls of film so far and been delighted with the results. Outdoor shots are perfect and I love being able to decide before each shot whether I need panoramic or "family" sized prints or just "regular" prints. The only photos which haven't been quite up to par are telephoto indoor pictures in less than great lighting ... these turned out somewhat grainy but I'm being very picky here. The compact sizing encourages me to carry the camera wherever I go. Even though the film and processing are a little more than with regular cameras, I am so pleased with the APS results that I still think it's a bargain. Although there are a great many "menu" features available, such as deciding right before the shot how many prints you will want of it, and adding a title right then and there, for most people the simplicity of use is what will appeal. It's pretty much idiot-proof, especially as the film winds itself on and off - no slipping possible. I highly recommend this camera for every day use.

THE VERY BEST!.......2002-05-30

I am not a camera expert, but I am a 'perfect picture' fanatic...and this camera leaves me complaint-free. I traveled to Cancun in April and the Bahamas in May, and my pictures captured the weather, water..and scenery so well that I was the envy of the office. I couldn't believe it! You could see every ripple in the pool and the exact color of the ocean and sky (which I thought wouldn't be captured). Crisp doesn't even begin to describe how my pics turned out. While in the Bahamas we took a professional family portrait, then took some shots on my camera for the heck of it. Had I been able to see (beforehand) how my pics would have turned out I NEVER would have paid for a professioanl portrait. They looked EXACTLY the same!! Right now one of my co-workers is a little upset with me because he took my pics home to scan them and upon seeing them his wife threw a tantrum, and demanded a vacation....

luv that camera ! !.......2007-01-16

I really luv this camera the pictures taken from it are too awesome ! I like the different size pictures you can set your camera to take. The zoom lens is a great plus as well. I would purchase this camera all over again if I needed another . I like it better than my digital camera and that's an 600 camera that I choose not use over the Advantix. ! ! Thanks E. Godfrey

The pictures have been quite good, but.... The camera malfunctioned within the first 3 months of use and had to be sent in for repair. My other complaint is that the battery life is really short. The battery generally lasts for 3-4 rolls of film. In my opinion, that is bad. I am careful to keep the camera "off" when not in use and it has been handled with care. I think it's time I went digial anyway. :-\

Lightweight, sharp pics, different modes, but construction??.......2003-01-03

I purchased this camera for my parents for an upcoming vacation they were going to take. The overall impression was that it was Kodak, came with a better than average zoom feature, provided different modes of APS picture taking and came with numerous rolls of film.

When the camera arrived, we were all pleased with its size and weight. It is extremly small and fits my mothers small hands and purse great, and it's one of the lightest camera's I've ever held.

The functionality is pretty straight forward: Takes classic (standard), Panoramic, and HD pics (slightly large than standard) on APS film. We were able to set the date and time and take pics within minutes. Came with a wrist strap, battery, and a decent case as well.

However, the first rolls we developed were blurry, clearly the lens was defective upon arrival. We returned the camera and had it repaced with the same model. The pictures turned out excellent, however, the acryllic lens cap was cracked upon arrival. This suggests to me that the lightweight materials and construction may a bit to light weight and fragile for the cost.

The saving grace is that it does have one of the better zoom features, it's size, and the extra film you get with this bundle. Though you get more B&W than color. And despite the slightly cracked lens cover, it takes fabulous pictures for a point and shoot.

The only awkward feature was the lens cap/flash combination. The flash is part of the tilt up lens cover. Of course you must fold up the lens cap/cover anytime you take a picture (flash or not), but it seems like it may possibly be susceptible to accidental damage. Especially if you forget to place the zoom feature back to normal. Takes some getting used to.

Excellent camera for a great price.......2002-12-02

I received this camera as a Christmas gift last year. I had done research on the internet and knew I wanted an APS camera with zoom capability. At the time, this camera was very hard to find.

The Kodak Adnvantix C750 has given me the sharpest pictures I've ever had with any instant camera. Close-ups are excellent. In the year I've had the camera, I've been on three vacations and every shot was crystal clear.

The camera is lightweight, compact and easy to use. Great for family shots or vacation pics.
