first shot with old Kodak Easyshare CX 7430

I bought this CX7430 for 3 $ at the Thrift Store. In 2001 it was a high end compact. Original price, 400$. 4MP. It gives you a surprising amount of control. No manual mode, but the exposure can be adjusted up or down one stop. You can custom order white balance. You have the choice of 4 grades of picture quality. The lens is all glass and that may be why the photos look so good from this little machine. It is not much good for huge vistas, but for close up work, can't be beat. Low light stuff is out too but you can up the ISO to 400.There is a mic, a speaker, a mode dial on top and a port on the bottom that allows connecting to a printer dock. An AV port for connecting to a television set and another port for direct current input. USB port too, of course. And there's more! But I'm through for now.
