Kodak DC240 FAQ
What battery does the Kodak DC240 use?

What memory card does the Kodak DC240 take?
Kodak DC240 uses Compact Flash. The current buyer-facing maximum is Up to 2GB (CompactFlash; early body, smaller cards recommended); for older or unusual formats, stay within that limit and avoid oversized cards. See the memory card guide before buying cards for older cameras.
Is the Kodak DC240 worth buying used?
It can be worth buying if you want a 1 MP Kodak digital camera from 1999 with 1/4-inch CCD. Check power, lens movement, screen condition, and storage access before paying. Run the used digital camera checklist before buying. For nearby Kodak options, compare Kodak DC215 and Kodak DC260.
How do you transfer photos from the Kodak DC240?
The simplest transfer path is usually to remove the memory card and use a compatible card reader. If the camera uses internal storage or a rare card format, confirm the cable or reader before buying. The card reader guide and photo transfer guide cover the common options.
Kodak DC240 is worth judging as its own Kodak pocket compact body, not just as a generic old compact. Start with condition, the exact battery/card setup, and whether its look fits what you want to shoot.
What owners like
Kodak DC240 works best when you want small-bag snapshots, flash photos, mirror selfies, and a clean pocket-camera look rather than a technically perfect modern camera; its 1/4" CCD and 39mm-117mm (3.0X zoom) are the main character of the look.
Common complaints
Check the lens movement, flash, screen, buttons, and card door calmly before relying on it; older compact bodies can need a little patience without being a bad buy.
What to compare
Compare it with Kodak DC215, Kodak DC265, Canon PowerShot S10, Fujifilm MX-1700 to decide whether you want this exact body, a cheaper nearby compact, or a slightly more capable alternative.
