Editorial Reviews : Kodak's first ultracompact, weatherproof camera, the Advantix T700 zoom camera is constructed with multiple rubber seals around the control buttons, film and battery doors, and the lens to keep moisture out of the body and the lens. This lets you shoot outside in any weather, and the camera's rubberized surface provides a sure grip. The pop-up flash is farther from the lens to reduce red eye. A sturdy lens cover acts as the camera's on/off switch. The Advantix T700 uses Kodak's PQix (Picture Quality Information Exchange) feature, which records data about each frame on the film's magnetic strip; this ensures that your images are properly exposed and developed by your photo processor. The real-image viewfinder lets you properly frame each shot and changes the view depending on which of the three image formats you choose (C, H, or P). Kodak also included a safety interlock on the film door to make sure the door won't open until your film is completely rewound. You can imprint the date and time, or one of 41 titles in 12 languages, on your images so you never forget when you took them.
Buyer Reviews : I bought this camera because I was heading to England and Ireland for a vacation of a lifetime and just couldn't stand the thought of carrying around my 4 lb. 35 mm. Easy to carry, offering pictures of various sizes, and waterproof to boot, this easy-to-use camera was perfect. Of course, I missed certain aspects of a larger camera. The T700 only has a 2x zoom, and I didn't have a tripod along, so missed some shots I would have gotten with a bigger camera. However, I still carry it in my purse and find that I am taking many more pictures now because I have the camera with me at all times. I guess the odds are that I will get more great pictures since I'm taking more pictures! Also, some of the photos seem darker than I think they should be, but that may be a reflection on the photographer rather than the camera.
