Z612 - Vignetting

[Dronecool]

hi,

I would request help from experienced photographers to evaluate the photogaphs in the directory
http://picasaweb.google.com/sanket79/Vignette
for Vignetting effect(Darkened Corners in Digital Cameras).

I have got the Lens assembly replaced by Kodak but, this noticeable effect continues. This effect is most prominent when no Zooming is done.

Kindly, let me know whether there seems to be a problem with my set or it is normal and I have to live with it.

ummm when did you get this camera is it new can you take it back?? that vignetting is pretty bad only time i have seen it this bad on a P&S is when some one attaches a lens to it

i can't find another reference to this problem with this camera on Google.. so i cant say for sure that its just your camera...but i suspect soo

EDIT: i actually found a reiview which was the one i was looking for in fist place.. with test shots .. steves shots do have some vignetting but no where near as bad as yours ..

I don't see the same problem on shots taken with the same camera on Flickr (maybe a hint on one or two but not as much as your camera demonstrates).

It might be worth checking the user community on Flickr, as that might be a good place to get help. Also, how about taking a series of shots of a fairly plain subject, gradually zooming in to illustrate how zoom affects the problem?

I have had zero vignetting problems what so ever with my z612.

I would definietly try to get it replaced or repaired.

That is not normal!!!!
