Kodak's new Easyshare V550 is a well-designed, stylish, compact, and surprisingly capable five-megapixel digicam. Ergonomics are amazingly good for such a tiny camera, with logically placed controls and one of the best user interfaces of any ultra-compact digital camera currently available. The V550 not only looks good (in "pro" black with silver trim), it is a genuinely capable digital camera that will appeal to beginning photographers, amateur shooters just making the jump to digital, casual snap-shooters, family shutterbugs, and space/weight conscious travelers. Additional features include a hi-res 2.5" LCD screen, built-in image stabilization, camcorder like video capabilities, an absolutely outstanding Schneider Variogon 3X zoom, and the latest version of Kodak's superb Color Science Processor.
