Pocket Lint reviews the Kodak EasyShare V1253 and writes - "The Kodak EasyShare V1253 comes across as an average 12 megapixel camera from Kodak. While we are impressed with some of the images, we can't but help that if you are a party goer, you will be disappointed with the performance and the images the next morning. We also don't like the fact that to benefit from this camera the most, ie use the full 3-inch screen, you have to shoot in 9 megapixels not the full capable resolution of 12."

CNET reviews the Kodak EasyShare V1253 and writes - "If you've got your heart set on a 12-megapixel camera--and unless you're printing larger than 8x10 or cropping in very tightly, you might want to scale your sights back to a lower-resolution model with optical image stabilization, such as the comparably priced Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T20--the Fujifilm FinePix F50fd still looks like the best of the group with a broader feature set, faster performance, and better photo quality than the Kodak EasyShare V1253. Still, if the real attraction for you is the V1253's large LCD and easy-to-use design, you should find the V1253 a satisfying option."
