Camera Overview — Kodak EasyShare DX3900

The Kodak EasyShare DX3900 is a point-and-shoot compact camera built around a 3MP, 1/1.8-inch sensor capable of capturing images at a maximum resolution of 2160x1440 pixels. Designed with simplicity in mind, it offers a straightforward shooting experience suited to everyday photography. The camera features a contrast detection autofocus system and a built-in flash with four modes — Auto, Fill, Off, and Red-Eye Reduction — giving users basic control over lighting conditions.

For image review and composition, there is a 1.5-inch TFT LCD display with 72,000 dots of resolution, complemented by an optical tunnel viewfinder as an alternative framing option. The DX3900 stores images on CompactFlash media and connects to a computer via USB for image transfer. It accepts 2x AA batteries (NiMH or Lithium recommended) or a single CRV3 battery, providing flexible power options.

ISO sensitivity runs from 100 to 200, a narrow range typical of the camera's era. The body measures 116 x 67 x 42 mm and weighs 260g, making it compact and portable. Three color profiles — Sharp, Standard, and Soft — are available for in-camera image processing.

There is no image stabilization of any kind, no weather sealing, and no wireless connectivity.
