Hello There:

I have the option (at work) to replace my assigned camera

(Kodak DX3900) for a Kodak DX6340. We take Real Estate

photos, so I wouldn't want to downgrade instead of upgrade.

I have to tell them by Tuesday, unfortunately, I am not too technical

about cameras.

Below I show the specifications of the camera I have now and

the new one. I would appreciate any help comparing these two.

Thank you in advance.

Lo

The 4 x optical zoom would be worth it's weight in gold above the 2x optical
zoom for anything else other than real estate pics! The rest looks the same.

Other factors may be: docking station for convenience, smaller size, longer
lasting batteries with newer technology, lower light capabilities, more
structurally robust, doesn't use AA cells but Lithion Ion. Better flash
range (I doubt it).
Note: I say "may" as I have done no research on these models.
