Image clarity too was practically impeccable with the right amount of sharpness at the required sections of the image.
Skin tones too came out looking very natural, even when shot with flash, which would really help during night portraits.
The camera performed pretty well when shooting the night scene modes, by limiting the ISO sensitivity level and playing more with the shutter speed. The night portrait shots without flash, however, turned out a little grainy. I suggest using flash in those cases.
Performance time isn't too high either. The V603 takes over 4 seconds from the turn-on time to the first shot. Shot to shot time wasn't bad though at just over a second between consecutive shots and close to 2 seconds at consecutive shots using flash.
Conclusion
It all comes down to the audience Kodak is catering to. They have made a simple point and shoot camera that can practically fit anywhere and look good when you slip it out of your pocket that even performs well where it matters the most.
At the end of the day, the Kodak V603 is a good point and shoot camera that's meant mainly for occasions like parties, outings, and any other social occasions. It may even go up to serving as a good option for family vacations, but if you're into roughing it out, or even getting more control on your compositions, then look elsewhere.
The gripes I've had with the build and the features are something that casual users may not really be affected with, but will definitely matter to veterans. If these negatives don't matter to you then it's worth the Rs. 14,999 street price.
