About - Kodak EasyShare C913
The EasyShare C913 is a point & shoot digital camera available from Kodak. The EasyShare C913 typically costs $89.95. Consumer Reports recommends that you match the features on a model to the needs you have. Here's our take on some of the specifications and features that are commonly available on point & shoot digital camera models like the EasyShare C913. Optical zoom: Magnifies the image using a real multifocal-length lens, whereas a digital zoom uses electronics to enlarge the center portion of the image using interpolation. Some cameras have both optical and digital zoom. The optical-zoom range is what really matters; image quality decreases the further one goes into the digital-zoom range. The magnification ratio available for optical zoom is expressed by a value such as 2X or 3X. A 2X optical zoom with a minimum focal length of 7 mm would have a maximum focal length of 14 mm. Image stabilizer: This feature minimizes the effect of camera shake. Wide angle: This shows which model has a lens that can zoom as wide as a 28 mm lens.

Optical zoom Magnifies the image using a real multifocal-length lens, whereas a digital zoom uses electronics to enlarge the center portion of the image using interpolation. Some cameras have both optical and digital zoom. The optical-zoom range is what really matters; image quality decreases the further one goes into the digital-zoom range. The magnification ratio available for optical zoom is expressed by a value such as 2X or 3X. A 2X optical zoom with a minimum focal length of 7 mm would have a maximum focal length of 14 mm. Optical zoom	3x
Image stabilizer This feature minimizes the effect of camera shake. Image stabilizer	Yes
Face detection Face detection uses in-camera software to automatically set the focus, exposure, and color balance so that faces appear sharp, well exposed, and the proper color. Face detection	No
Wide angle This shows which model has a lens that can zoom as wide as a 28 mm lens. Wide angle	Yes
Manual controls Some cameras allow the user to set the aperture (f-stop), shutter speed, or (usually) both. This feature is used to override the automatic exposure settings when more control is needed. During a sporting event for example, you may want to use a high shutter speed to freeze the action. Or, you may want to use a low shutter speed to blur moving objects (like a waterfall) while keeping stationary objects sharp. Using shallow depths of field can be used to blur the background of photos while keeping the foreground in focus. Typically up/down arrow keys are used to change settings displayed on the LCD or in the viewfinder. These controls are not as easy to use as on conventional film cameras. Manual controls	Yes
