I've got a Kodak DC3800, and its colour balance is fantastic. It dosent have
an analogue zoom which means its not much use for long shots (I want on
holiday to Scotland and had lots of photos of scenery with tiny castles in
the middle)
but its great for close up work. I have found NEVER to use non-rechargeable
batteries. I get about 15 shots from duracells and about 100 from my
rechargables. go figure!
