Up for sale is a Kodak DC4800 Zoom digital camera, one of Kodak’s higher-end early digital models, featuring a larger CCD sensor, fast lens, and full manual controls, which is rare for cameras of this era.
This is a great option for anyone looking for a retro CCD camera with more creative control, or collectors who appreciate early prosumer digital gear.
Camera has been tested and works great, producing that classic early-2000s CCD look,. while also offering features that go well beyond basic point-and-shoot models.

-
Kodak DC4800 Zoom Digital Camera

Key Features (why this one stands out):
-
3.1MP 1/1.8" CCD Sensor (better than most early compacts)
-
28–84mm Equivalent Lens (f/2.8–4.5) – wider and faster than typical
-
Full Manual Controls + Aperture Priority

Why This Camera Is Different:
Most early digital cameras are simple point-and-shoots—this one isn’t.
The DC4800 gives you:
-
Manual exposure control
-
External flash capability
-
RAW-like TIFF output
-
A larger CCD sensor for better image quality
It still delivers that vintage CCD aesthetic, but with far more flexibility if you actually want to shoot with it, not just collect it.
Notes:
Due to age, this is sold as a vintage electronic device. It has been tested and works, but long-term reliability cannot be guaranteed.
