The dock has an incompatible battery for the Z1012 IS camera. When the camera is placed on the dock, the camera no longer downloads to my MAC. So, it really doesn't work in any way at all. By process of elimination, I think that the K8500-C+1 rechargeable battery kit with the KLIC-8000 rechargeable battery should work. This is frustrating since the dock kit said it was compatible with the Z1012 IS but upon further review it shows multiple ** with disclaimers. Don't get fooled. Good luck.

I don't blame Amazon for carrying this item but have already communicated directly to Kodak. This kit is misrepresented! We needed to replace an older model dock station that no longer transferred pictures. This is the correct replacement but no where on the box or in the description does it tell you that the CABLE, a necessity, is not included!!! The kit contains a camera bag (NOT NEEDED and didn't want it..I have one and I was not ordering a camera!) Kit also includes lens cleaning solution and a cleaning cloth, plus rechargeable batteries...ALSO NOT NEEDED!) The box makes mention that perhaps one can use their former cable...OUR former cable was not compatible with this new kit! Had to order a separate cable, which in itself was rather inexpensive but could have easily been included in the kit if they had eliminated the useless camera bag, cleaning supplies + batteries!!!

I purchased this elsewhere, but wanted to let others know that it works great with the Kodak Z1285 camera. Be sure to keep your USB adapter and software from the camera, to use with this as it doesn't come with either. The software can be downloaded from the Kodak website. Yes, it only charges the battery that comes with the kit, but it's supposed to last over 1000 charges. I had a previous Kodak Easyshare camera, battery and dock that lasted well over three years. In fact, they still work, just wanted to upgrade the camera and ended up getting the dock for it. Overall, I'd recommend this product to anyone.
