Kodak EasyShare C643 Review
Review Summary
Reader Score: 6.47 (out of 10)
Preview: "The Kodak C643 is a 6 MP point-and-shoot camera with 3x optical zoom. It uses the company's EasyShare docking system to simplify printing of snapshots, and it has a full range of competitive features such as a 30 fps movie mode, a large LCD screen and a full spectrum of shooting presets. Unlike most of the competition, it has an optical viewfinder in addition to the LCD screen.

The C643 is a good value in a field crowded with good values. Its features and design philosophy reflect the skill of Eastman Kodak to identify exactly what its target audience wants-no more and no less. It has no obvious weak spots, in the sense that the simplified settings are a deliberate decision to make the camera easier to use for the beginner. Yet it comes through with full motion video at 30 fps, in-camera cropping of images and several other features found in more expensive cameras."

Review: "Like the C533, the chunky, inexpensive Kodak EasyShare C643 seems cheaply built, with a 6.8-ounce, 1.4-inch-thick light plastic body that feels like the prize from a cereal box. With the same control layout as its sibling, it's a bit button-heavy for such a basic snapshot camera. The shutter release is set inside a mode dial on the camera's top side, next to two buttons for flash and timer/burst settings.

The Kodak EasyShare C643's inexpensive price tag may look tempting, but its weaknesses definitely outnumber its strengths. Considering this model's flimsy build and poor image quality, you should opt for better choices, such as the Sony Cyber Shot DSC-S600 or the Canon PowerShot A620."
