Available on Amazon for about $211 net, and a rechargeable batt and charger is another $20, and 4 GB class 6 SDHC card is about $25, plus the case may be another $10 to $20 -> leading to a total of $265 or so - much much cheaper than the corresponding Canon S5IS camera (which I've used and like, but is outside what I'm willing to pay Smile

)

Any thoughts from the photography experts on this forum?

The main difference b/w canon and other cameras is noise is lesser for Canon. I like the color of kodak photos and if they have reduced the noise in low light, it would be worth it.

Canon is a good platform. Settle for cannon Smile

I have used 2MP koadk long time back, so no use in sharing that experience, since things should be faster by now.
Burst mode, i never had to take it. I have tried it just to see if the camera works properly, it is not required for plane photography. It would be good if your shooting a soccer match and were to capture somebody heading the ball into a goal post, because it happens in a fraction of a second and you'd need the burst mode since you don't know the exact moment of contact. For a plane you got quite a long time compared to that, you lose time zoming and focussing, once thats done you don't need two shots in succession and fill your memory card with exactly the same picture. The recovery time is important if you want take quick pict with differnt angle or zoom. I know guys with 5MP 10x Kodaks having their pics on A.net. So, I don't think it will be a problem.
