Kodak's Share button allows you to tag pictures directly from your camera for e-mailing, or uploading to YouTube, FACEBOOK, FLICKR and Kodak Gallery sites, plus e-mail too. The real Kodak Moment happens when you share.

Kodak M530 betrayal August 14, 2010 damnnnn 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Three stars, for me, personally, it would be 1 star, since for my application, this camera wont do at all. Before I start ripping on it, there are a few plus sides, this camera takes awsome pictures and video, very clear, crisp, and vibrant colors. You can dumb down the pictures to 6.2MP so that you can squeeze off many pictures in emails and still at 6.2 the pictures look very nice. This is a very good camera in terms of picture and video quality. Also, it says you can only go as high as 4GB memory, but 8GB memory is ok, thats what I use, get the class 2 memory, it works fine with it, I believe this is a case of technology moving faster than the printed material for the unit. OK, CONS! The camera does not put a time stamp on the photos, I work for NYCDOT and i need to have time, and Date, nothing about the date is automatic, after waiting god knows how long, to talk to a kodak agent, the way to place the date on the photo, is to select the photo, scroll to the specific photo, then emediatly hit the menu button, all this is done on the camera, its the last button, looks like a play button, and then scroll to the picture, DO NOT hit Select Photo, just after you select which image you want to date stamp go to the menu button, which is the 3 line thingy button below the trash, right click to get to the edit button then scroll down to ADD DATE STAMP, and thats it, easy isnt it, with my 8GB memory, i can have as many as 6800 photos, can you imagine that there is a bright red button that says share, as if thats hard to do even if it wasnt available, but you have to enter a date on every photo you wish to place a date on, and there is no time, so forget about having a car accident and using this camera for proof of anything. A super name brand like KODAK, and no mass date and time, time is not allowed, but still no mass date, its an awsome betrayal for me......
So many problems out of the box... July 7, 2010 R. Kyser (Michigan, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Our previous camera died so we bought one of these M530's. My wife liked the Kodak name and has used Kodak before. Unfortunately for us, the camera is problematic and it's not just ours judging by complaints and reviews I've read online now.
On the plus side this camera takes video with sound, in addition to normal photos. There are a variety of menu options and picture types to choose form, though to be honest you're going to take 95% of your pictures in the default "Smart" mode anyways.
It's the problems though that keep it from being a recommendable purchase.
First off, almost as soon as it was out of the box the LCD screen has a tendency to go white after it's been on once. If you turn it on, take some pictures, turn it back off, then on again a few minutes later the LCD display will ALWAYS go white, no exceptions. You can still take pictures, but can't possibly see what it is you're taking of course. I've read online this is sometimes due to a loose wire internally, but find it hard to believe it's a loose wire because it always happens after it's been on once already then magically disappears if you leave it off for 10 minutes or so. This is a huge problem because nobody leaves their camera one for an extended period of time, and judging by reviews is not unique to this specific model but is a problem with many, many different Kodak cameras. I don't know or care what the reasoning or excuse is, but this kind of problem is not acceptable out of the box.
Secondly, the camera takes a rather large amount of light in order to take pictures. My kids have fairly cheap cameras that require less light to take a simple picture. I don't know what the problem is with the M530's light filter, but for a company like Kodak this kind of problem really isn't acceptable either.
Lastly, to do something as simple as add a date and time stamp to your photos is not possible without going in and selecting each photo individually and then adding the stamp. This is just plain dumb. An option to turn On and Off automatic stamping is all that's needed here, and as it stands this way stamping your photos will not be an option unless you just have loads and loads of free time to waste by adding them individually.
Overall, my verdict is to stay away from this camera. The problems aren't minor, but are medium to major and it's just not a good value. Quite frankly Kodak seems to have the same problems with various camera models and lines, so perhaps staying away from Kodak altogether is your best bet. You'd think a company like Kodak would be able to put out a better product than this.
I love this camera from Amazon! July 4, 2010 dfs (Houston, TX) I love this camera; it is small & light; takes beautiful pictures. Great price for the features
Great camera for a great price June 16, 2010 W. Lucero (TAMPA, FLORIDA, US) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I usually shoot on a Canon DSLR, but am getting ready for a summer trip and wanted something small to carry in my pocket. I did some research and looked around and after messing with a few cameras in hand, I stumbled upon this kodak and impressive it is. For the price it cant be beat, at 12mp with a nice sleek design and very easy to use the buttons are very user friendly. The layout of the buttons are also user friendly no fumbling around at all. Basically at the size of a credit card it easily stores away in my pocket. It also has a "smart" feature which basically just adjusts everything for you instead of having to mess with settings. Its pretty fast when taking a shot, I was expecting a slow response time, but again have been pretty impressed how fast it actually is for a little point and shoot. The pictures have all been really crisp and gives very vibrant colors. Easy downloads of all photos and its a quick painless transfer. It also has a function to connect to your facebook or flickr account if you have one, which I didnt use, but is convienant regardless. If you looking for something quick easy and fun this is a great deal, if your want something more advanced than look elsewhere.
