The Kodak EasyShare V803 performs quite well, though it starts up very slowly. Noise and artifacts often spoil V803's pictures, softening and obscuring fine details. Images become covered with grain at settings as low as ISO 400, and only grow worse at higher ISO settings. If you don't plan to make very large photos, then you'd be better buy something like Canon's PowerShot A560. Its images are also noisy at high ISOs, but its controls are much easier and it starts quickly.
