a great camera for keeping with you at all times
2002-04-29i bought the kodak advatix c450 simply because i needed a camera i could just keep in my handbag and whip out whenever necessary. i have plenty of [costly] large cameras which i use for major events or planned shoots but this is a nice, light, point-and-snap camera which is [less costly] and easy to keep with you without logging round a large camera case! the three pictures shots make for more control over your pictures and the autofocus means it is as simple and flicking it open and clicking. for a first time camera buyer or for someone who just wants an easy camera this is a good buy.
