Kodak EasyShare M340 10MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom and 2.7 inch LCD (Green)

I bought this camera from Best Buy about 3 weeks ago, and I like it so far.

What I like:
–The menus! They are very well organized and so easy to navigate. It’s actually why I bought this camera.
–The panoramic option is fabulous. You can stitch up to 3 snapshots together for one beautiful picture.
–Camera body is slim and smooth, not bulky or bumpy.
–It’s powered with a Li-on battery that you can charge through a wall outlet or your computer. So no more popping oodles of batteries, and no more worrying if you’ve over-charged the thing. The battery life is pretty decent, too.

What I don’t like:
–The shutter speed is a tad slow. For still/portrait shots it’s fantastic, but for action shots you’ll need a little foresight.
–It makes this weird, soft clicking noise while it’s on. But that’s more of a minor nuisance than an actual problem. The noise does not affect the camera’s performance at all.
–When recording video, the picture is very clear, but the volume is a little low.

Overall:
If you want a decent, bright, easy-to-use, basic camera, buy this one. I got it in silver, but it comes in other colors, too. If you want more zoom, you can check out the M380.
