Kodak Reviews

The batteries that come with this are made by Sanyo & are EXCELLENT !

Careful on 2 fronts:
1. The charger used to be made by Sanyo & is no longer true. They are made in china but the quality seems to be very acceptable.

2. Can charge 4AAs & only 2 AAAs. But you can all do 6 at the same time.

3. It charging time depends on mah rating. It charges in 1 hr for 800mah AAA. It takes 2 hours or so for 2100mah. But stil it is worth it !!!!!!!!!!!!

Well-designed rapid charger that does worldwide voltages (110/220V). Comes with four 2100 MA batteries. Batteries can be charged 1, 2, 3 or 4 at a time. It accepts a maximum of 4AA's or 2AAA's. A separate power cord that plugs into the side of the charger is provided, unlike the usual alternatives - either ungainly flip plugs on the back of the charger, or prongs that stick out an inch from the back of the charger - that are common in chargers of this size. The whole ensemble, including batteries, fits nicely into the accessory pocket of a large digital camera pouch with at least 2 inches (thickness) of space for accessories.

I recently bought this charger kit from Amazon and I am quite happy with my purchase. The folding plug is nice for storage. The included 1850 mAh batteries last for a long time in my Nikon Coolpix 2100. One of the best features of the charger is that each battery is charged separately (as opposed to in pairs) so that each battery gets just the right amount of charge. The short 3 hour charge time is great as well. The batteries do not get overly warm while charging either.

Overall, this is a good charger for a good price. If you have a high drain device, the Kodak K2000 should keep you playing for a long time.

I have really enjoyed using these 1850 NiMH Batteries - they last quite a long time in my A70 digital camera and CD player and the charge time is very quick compared to others. Plus, the fact that you can charge each battery individually is very nice, since it prevents overcharging of any battery. Others charge 2 batteries at once and that assumes that both need to charge as long as the other. Also, the charger works well with AA and AAA NiCad and NiMH batteries. Great buy...

Greetings. Kodak also has a K6000 charger which comes with 4 NiMH 2100 mAh batteries. Two batteries charge is 64 minutes and 4 batteries charge in 140 minutes. The problem is that Amazon doesn't carry them YET. Good bye.

These type of charger seems to control the charging time by a timer that starts when you plug into power outlet. If you do not unplug it first before next use it will not restart charging. Very low tech if that is the case, and Kodak (or Energizer) may not want you to know it. I have one of these.

I have the K200 charger but can find little tech. info. on it. Do the green lights indicate a charged, or a discharged condition? Some of the reviews/descriptions of this charger make it sound as if it will charge regular or alkaline AA and AAA batteries. I don't know much about batteries, but I'm pretty sure they have to be Ni-MH or Ni-CD batteries (size AA or AAA) to be rechargable. Attempting to recharge regular or alkaline batteries might be hazardous.

I have used the K200 charger for about a year with good results. However, it comes with an inadequate user's guide, and I haven't found any additional information on Kodak's site. The "auto-off" timer would seem to indicate that batteries are protected from overcharging. However, the unit does heat up when plugged in, and the user's guide states that it should be unplugged after 8 hours. If that's the case, it should include a built-in beeper! Several times, I've left it plugged in for a couple days, with no apparent harm to batteries or charger.

We bought two of these for our first trip to NYC. The pictures were grainy, washed out and just plain awful. We bought the more expensive cameras thinking the pictures would be even better than the cheaper one time cameras. We were so wrong. I contacted Kodak's customer service and they said it was either the photographer or the developer. Then they generously mailed me a $2 off coupon to buy another. As if I will buy another one of their cameras!! I will never use another Kodak product after the treatment I received from their customer service.

Unfortunately Kodak seem to spend a small fortune making their Disposable Camera's look Sleek and Trendy. However the Photos always turn out very Average despite being loaded with so called High Quality Kodak Max 400 Film.
IMO Kodak Max 400 Film is one of the worst films on the Market.
I used the Kodak Max HQ a couple of times and was disapointed with the Photos. Grainy, Washed out Colors.
I've yet to try the New High Definition Film, hopefully this Film is slightly better.

I was going to a Birthday Party on 15-Nov-02 and decided to take this Camera with me. The Photos turned out a bit Grainy in some shots with not much Colour. Also the Skin Tones looked a bit Pale. I used one of these Cameras last year but it was the "Kodak MAX" One time Use Camera, those pictures turned out better. Unfortunately they have Deleted that line (Well in this country Anyway) of One Time Use Camera and replaced them with this new Kodak MAX HQ Model which I don't think is as good.

I got one of these batteries with my camera. I made the mistake and thought it was rechargible. This is not a rechargible battery, it does have a long battery life, I brought it on 4 trips with me before it died. The problem with this battery is that it does not leave you with a lot of warning that it is going to die. The battery light flashes and the camera cuts off. Best to always pack a spare as you have no way of checking how much battery is left.

Do not leave the battery in the camera when and if you use the docking station as I have heard it will drain the battery.

I had this battery for over a year and thought it was rechargable. It wasn't and I used it in my docking station anyways, and it just now died. It has lasted over a year. and i paid alot more for another brand that I doubt will last as long. I will buy this again.

I purchased the rechargeable set and the battery never held a charge for more that a few pictures. This battery has held up for several months without the awful delay that the rechargeable has. This is by far the best battery for the Koday Easyshare camera.

I recently discovered these batteries in a store and tried them out as they claimed they were designed for digital applications.

They dusted regular and premium AA batteries when I used them in my Canon 550EX flash. With normal batteries I get around 250 shots, but to get those I have to swap the batteries out to let them cool down after about 100 shots. With the Kodak 3x batteries, I got over 400 shots and did not have to swap them out. On top of that, they seemed to recharge the flash even faster then normal as they warmed up.

While I don't recommend them for low-continuous power devices such as clocks and flash lights, I do highly recommend them for high-energy use devices such as digital cameras and flashes.

The reason I have found from looking up the specs on the Kodak site is they are indeed designed for high-energy digital devices which consume a lot of power over a short duration, in fact the more you drain (up to a point) the more over all power they should provide.

If you only take an occasional picture once in a blue moon, I don't recommend them, but if like me you take lots in one setting, these batteries are fantastic. Unless I can't find them I don't use anything else in my camera flashes anymore.

In Indonesia, when I go to Fuji photo studios, I always meet many teenagers. It seems ridiculous for me because I'm not a teenager anymore. When I go to an ordinary photo studio, I always meet ordinary people who (maybe) want just ordinary pictures. It is also not suitable for me because I want something better. But when I go to Kodak photo studios, I meet a lot of professionals. It proves that Kodak is professionals' choice. I also have tried this film and I found that it works well. I have tried it with dark scenes and it is able to get the pictures although I didn't use any additional equipments, just a standard camera and lenses. Great for zooming as well as landscape and portrait scenes. Fortunately, although it is good for professionals, it is also friendly to amateurs because it does not demand any special treatments, just put it into your camera and use it! The problem is that, how well do you know about your camera and yourself to maximize your camera's features and your instinct to get beautiful pictures. Remember, practise make perfect. Well try this one, try your best, and you will get beautiful pictures with it.
