Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism Ordered online from Walmart (best price around) last Thursday after 5 pm and delivered to my doorstep by Fedex Ground Monday before 2 pm for a negligible shipping charge of $1.97.It's been raining in the NYC Metro area since Sunday so I haven't had a chance to use the camera outdoors much and not at all in the sun. Here are 2 of the first pictures I took. The first one, of my dog in the yard, was taken with completely gray skies and no sun during a lull in the rainfall on "smart" mode with a flash, F 4.0 shutter speed 1/60.Low light pics are really amazing with this camera. The second pic is of my family room taken at 8:34 pm in smart mode with no flash F 2.8, shutter speed 0.3 in a 13x20 room lit by only the light coming through the doorway from the kitchen and the TV. While I realize you wouldn't want to take pics of people at that shutter speed the potential seems amazing to me, with the room appearing as though it was 2 pm on a sunny day.The other review here says you can't save settings when you shut off the camera but that is not completely true. If you shoot in PASM modes it will save your settings in those modes even if you switch modes or shut off the cameral. While it may not save settings in "scenes" and special features (like shooting fireworks or sunsets) those are preset anyway as soon as you dial to them.I am no photo expert but the menus seem very intuitive and easy to navigate.The main reason I bought this camera is that it gives me a lot of versatility with its zoom and low light capacity. I hate flash photography and I like a lot of sports and outdoor action shots of family and friends.The zoom is 30X optical while in smart mode and another 5x when shooting in PASM modes (which allow you to override a host of presets that you can't do (except to shut off the flash) in smart mode. Though you cannot zoom manually, the toggle for the zoom is on a ring surrounding the shutter button and very easy to use without taking your eyes off the subject of your pictures. It responds instantly and does not require you to zoom in and out to get where you want like my old digital camera (Sony Cybershot DSC-S70).Very little lag between pushing the shutter button and the pic being taken imo, especially in low light where you'd expect the camera to think about it for a while before shooting. As for complaints that you have to wait until the preview pic goes away you can easily overcome that by pushing the shutter button half way which clears the screen and allows you to take another pic right away.One other thing. I would never buy a camera without a view finder in addition to the lcd screen and the z990, besides having a very bright 3" lcd which is excellent, has an EVR (electronic view finder) with all the same info you get on the lcd and which is very useful in bright sun when you cannot see the lcd. If you want to use the EVR instead you just hit a button to the top left of the lcd and the lcd turns off and the EVR on.Though I am no expert at photography I have taken thousands of pics over the years with my trusty Konica Autospeed TC SLR and my Sony point and shoot. But from what I can see this new Kodak offering beats them by far. I really think I am going to enjoy this camera.
