The Kodak’s are very easy to use and produce quite nice photos. Their lenses are quite good. However, if you have £300 you can do quite a bit better, have a look at cameras from Nikon and Canon in this price range. I find the NI-MH batteries a bit annoying as they don't last as long as the lithium ones and wear out after a while. I can't comment on the printer, but you might want to consider something such as this one which Dabs has on offer, and is excellent.

the printer dock are useless, poor quality prints and expensive to run.

There is a review of it here along with tons of others. The camera does very well including the lens. http://www.steves-digicams.com
Do note though that it doesn't have full manual control of shutter/aperture settings if that is what you are after.
