The Kodak EasyShare C743 is a 7.1 megapixel point and shoot digital camera with a 3x Optical Zoom lens.
Features and how this camera looks are sketchy at this point as it was just a mention in a press release announcing the new Kodak EasyShare C875. I guess we can assume it is similar in terms of features to it.
We do know that it will have a retail price of $249 *AUD and should hit stores in late September 2006.

CNET reviews the Kodak EasyShare C743 and gives it a raint of 5.6 out of 10. They write - 'Budget cameras are a dime a dozen these days, and without high-quality photos or unique capabilities, it's easy for these sub-$200 shooters to fall between the cracks. Of course, without a major flaw it's hard for a sub-$200 camera to really screw up, either. The Kodak EasyShare C743 is one such mediocre camera. It doesn't offer any notable benefits, but its flaws, while irritating, aren't enough to render it completely useless.'
Imaging Resource has a review of the Kodak EasyShare C743 and writes, "Though I wasn't expecting the Kodak C743's image quality to rival pricier cameras, images were mediocre. ... It's hard to resist the urge to grade the Kodak EasyShare C743 on a curve since this is a camera with very decent specs for a very reasonable price. But while it's true that the Kodak C743 has a 7 megapixel imaging sensor, a 3x optical zoom, a host of helpful scene modes, and a 2.4-inch LCD for less than $160, in the end the quality of the images I captured were disappointing. In particular, low-light indoor shots and images I captured during a couple of overcast days in New York City were often soft, and the color was flat, with frequent exposure problems. So while on paper the Kodak C743 would seem to give you good bang for your buck, mediocre image quality is the price you'll pay in the end with this camera."
Trusted Reviews has a review of the Kodak EasyShare C743 and writes, "The Kodak EasyShare C743's low price may be a temptation, but don't be fooled; it actually represents extremely poor value for money. The meagre list of features, horrible zoom control, slow performance, appalling low-light ability, limited battery life and very poor image quality will prove to be a major disappointment for anyone unlucky enough to find themselves in possession of this camera. If the C-series is going the way of the Dodo then the C743 will not be missed."
