Thats exactly what i do. Theres a click, then the next
click takes the picture, well, slightly press till the first click goes, then
hold it there until u want to take a picture, and press the second click,
and it takes the picture like any normal 35 mm camera.

I forgot one other
thing. You can "pre-focus" most cameras by slightly pressing on the
shutter button. Once you have done this, the time to take the picture is
close to 1/10 of a second. Practice this technique and you will have
much better luck with kids and animals! I have not updated the pages in
a while, but here are links to a few hundred digital pictures of my
daughter: http://ep.com/brad/mari/
I now use the flash
for virtually every picture - this seems to help quite a
bit.
Yep, they all do
that. The Kodak is a pretty decent entry level camera. You will
be hard pressed to find one that is easier to use that this. If you
get the dock and rechargeable battery that comes with the dock, you may
never need to buy a battery for it. Get a decent memory card, and you
may never have to do anything other than dock the camera. I know how
easy this is, because I bought the 4330, dock, and a128 MB card for our
daughter's Pre-School for the teachers to use.
As for taking
pictures of three year olds, I've had a digital for about three years and
have taken hundreds of pictures of our almost 4 year old daughter. At
least with the digital you can review the pictures, trash the bad ones and
then re-take the ones that did not work.
I have what is
probably a silly question. I just picked up a Kodak 4230 digital camera
just for snapping pics of cars and stuff for ebay, etc. However, I noticed
that it does not work like my regular camera in that there is a delay
between when you press the shutter button and when it actually takes the
photo. Drives me nuts. My question is, are they ALL like this or just this
Kodak. I mean, imagine trying to take a picture of a three year old when
there's a 1.5 second delay. Shoot, my kids move so fast that by the time
the shutter clicks they're in the next room.
