Kodak EasyShare M1073 IS Digital Camera Questions & Answers
Flash wont work
Use the flash when you take pictures at night, indoors, or outdoors in heavy shadows. You can chose what flash mode, by pressing several times on the little button on top of the camera where the lightening logo is. One of the settings is flash off. Make sure it is not in that mode, because even when it is dark the flash won't fire. The other modes are flash, fill in flash and red eye reduction flash.
Where are the batteries
What do yu mean with where are the batteries?
Your camera only has one battery. It is in the same compartment where the memory card goes in. The battery is the small square package with only three golden contacts on it. If you did not insert a SD card (was not included with the camera) you only can shoot a few pictures and then it says memory full.
Your camera accepts SD and SCHC card, if you still want to buy a memory card.
My son mistakenly deleted his
Yes, but you will need to purchase a "Rescue" program such as Rescue - Pro, this enables you to search a camera memory card, and retrieve the last images taken. Beware however that if your son has taken more photos after the ones he deleted then the "Rescue" software may have trouble.
The best option is to withdraw the camera card from use until you have used the "Rescue" software, to prevent corruption to the image files.
These programs are available for down load off the web, at very reasonable prices, or maybe available when purchased with a high end memory card, such as San Disk Extreme IV Series Cards.
Hope this helps

My battery won't charge and the lens is
If the camera
has recently been dropped it may have lens damage that is preventing the
camera from powering up/down. If it hasn't been dropped, your problem
may be due to weak/worn out batteries
or corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera which can
prevent the full power of the batteries from flowing into the camera.
Try this free fix before you do anything else: remove the batteries and
wipe the camera contacts firmly with
a dry cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush,
steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen
into the battery compartment during cleaning, then wipe both ends of
the batteries, place them back in the camera and give them a good charge (assuming that you're using rechargeable batteries). This cleaning clears
the problem about 90% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, your batteries may need to be replaced, or the camera may have
a problem that requires professional repair.
How the heck do I
In any still mode, press the cursor-down button (marked with a one-handed clock) to cycle through the available self-timer modes. Start the self-timer by pressing the shutter release button.
Full details are in the extended user guide in the "Using the self-timer" subsection of the "Doing more with your camera" section.

It's important to set the date and time so that pictures and videos are organized by the date taken. The date and time procedure varies slightly between camera models, but generally:
- Turn on the camera.
- Press the Menu button.
If you see a Setup tab, press the Right arrow button to highlight the Setup tab. If you don't see a Setup tab, press the Down arrow button to select Setup, then press the OK button.
- Press the Down arrow button to choose Date and Time (or similar), then press the OK button.
- Press the Right/Left arrow buttons to move between year, month, and date. Press (or press and hold) the Up/Down arrow buttons to scroll through the year, month, and date.
Use the same procedure to set the time.
- When finished, press the OK button.
NOTE: If your KODAK Camera has a touchscreen, the same principles apply. Tap the
Menu icon,
Setup, then
Date and Time (or similar).
Lens is out and won't
Hello
The problem is that the lens has become stuck in the barrel
after dropping it. There are some DIY solutions you could try, but the
probability is that you will have to get it fixed by a professional.
Use
these at own risk as it may further damage the camera.
Firstly ,
try connecting your ac adapter or usb cable.
Try holding the
shutter button while switching on the camera.
Look at the lens ,
and if some of the lens 'circles' is misaligned or not concentric then
try wiggling it (while holding camera lens down).
Try gently
pushing or pulling the lens when it extends but this is risky as it may
cause the lens barrel to slip out of its guidance system.
Another
way to do this is to place the camera lens down on a hard surface and
then power it up. Be sure to use a soft cloth or something similar as to
not scratch your lens or casing. Let the lens push the camera up and
down a few times and sometimes the little resistance provided by the
camera is enough to get things going again.
Try hitting your
camera near the lens on the body with the soft tissue on the palm of
your hand.
Other than that , I would take the camera to a repair
center for a evaluation to see if it would cost more to repair than to
replace the camera.
If it is still under warranty I would suggest
you take it in before trying any of these steps and remove any
off-brand batteries or accessories as some stores are really fussy about
warranty repairs on camera's with non-brand accessories.
Hope
the advise is useful.

Andrea

Kodak m1073 dont open
The problem you describe is frequently the result of dirty/corroded
battery contacts in the camera. Try removing the batteries and
cleaning the inside contacts with a fine wire brush, steel wool, or
fine sandpaper. Remove any residue left from the cleaning, then
replace the batteries. Hopefully all will be well.
If the cleaning doesn't work you might want to check the Kodak troubleshooting guide at:

I have a Kodak M1073 IS digital camera, it's
This problem is frequently due to either weak/worn out batteries or corroded battery terminals inside the
camera. If charging/replacing the batteries does not clear the problem, remove the batteries and wipe the terminals with a soft cloth
(heavy corrosion may require a fine wire brush, steel wool, or
sandpaper). Remove any residue left in the camera by the cleaning.
Clean the terminals on the batteries in the same manner, and then
replace them in the camera. This cures most problems, but if it
doesn't work for you, check the Kodak troubleshooting guide at:
