Kodak Zx1,
By
This review is from: Kodak Zx1 720p Pocket HD Camcorder (Blue) (Electronics)
I have found this camera to out perform many of the reviews that I had read about it before ordering. Although not that great in really low light it does not do that bad of a job in dim light. It's a lot easier to use then some of the reviews stated. In fact, it's probably the simpliest camera to use I have ever bought. I have owned many still and camcorders over the years. Considering it comes with re chargable batteries and a HDMI cable I think for the price it can't be beat and would recommend it for anyone considering a basic HD camcorder.

Cool little camera,

This review is from: Kodak Zx1 720p Pocket HD Camcorder (Blue) (Electronics)
First off, a tip of the hat to Amazon.ca for their very fast delivery!(as always)As for the camera, love the compactness, the picture is excellent and the ease of use is a definate plus. As with other reviewers notes, a picture stabilization would have been great but with a low cost, small camera, maybe it's a bit too much to expect. Overall, a great second camera to have in the car all the time or in a back pack in case you don't have or forgot your regular vid camera. 2 thumbs up for Kodak and Amazon.

Kodak Zx1,
By Utility Man - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Kodak Zx1 720p Pocket HD Camcorder (Black) (Electronics)
I bought the Zx1 to take along on motorcyle trips. I installed a camera mount on my motorcyle for on the road video. Here are some of the good and bad points.The good: 1.Easy to carry. 2.Uses AA batteries or AA rechargeable batteries.Easy to find. 3.Different choises of recording quality. VGA,HD30, or HD60. Will also take still photos. 4.Uses a standerd SD or SD HC card. Cheap and easy to find in stores. 5.USB connection to the computer. 6.Videos I have taken are pretty good quality. 7.I can actually operate this thing while on the move on my motorcycle without crashing. It is simple to operate. 8.Pretty rugged. 9.Fast bootup and quick to record time. The Bad: 1.Eats batteries like a thirsty camel.Bring spares. 2.Video has no image stabilization. You need a steady hand or a tripod. Bring Dramamine if you are watching video where the camera is moved quickly. 3.Include SD cards and batteries in the final price for comparison with other cameras. 4.Records in Quicktime. Yuk for us WMV users. 5.Operating symbols on the back are cryptic till you get used to them. Don't press the wrong (small) button like I did or you will delete your videos. 6.Software is OK (it's comes with the camera)but good editing and maybe format converting software may be a consideration. 7.I was not real fond of the software being pre-loaded on the camera and installing itself when the camera was hooked up to the computer.I would prefer it came on a disk. This way I would have more control when new operating systems came out. Overall it is a fun camera to use. It is very portable and pretty durable. HD60 videos were pretty clear. Good outdoor camera. Poor low light camera. I think I would wait on buying one if I did it over. It reminds me of the first digital camers that needed a few generations to develope. Still, it is an impressive device for being so compact. 72 of 75 people found the following review helpful

A best buy,
By Gordon H. Hughes "sunshine" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kodak Zx1 720p Pocket HD Camcorder (Black) (Electronics)
For starters Amazon delivers on their promise of a 3-day delivery. This is a company you can count on.The Zx1 is right on target. Right out of the box it does exactly what you would expect from a small pocket video camera - decent quality and simple operation. Even indoors the quality was acceptable - which is more than you can say about most cameras in this class. This is clearly a second-generation pocket video camera - with improved controls and support for large capacity SD cards. The AA batteries are just what you need to make sure you will never run out. I was surprised to see that a charger was included. My big concern about buying a Flash Drive HD camera was the issue of file format. This is a thorny issue with all HD video cameras. I could care lass about HD - I just wanted decent quality and the ability to edit video. The plan is simple - archive the 'HD' content and keep it for future editing when software and hardware are readily available. And meanwhile convert the files to AVI or another usable DVD formtat for immediate use. The supplied ArcSoft program does primitive conversion of the 720p format to 640 DVD format - but in Quicktime - which Windows Media player version 9 still refuses to recognize in Windows XP ( I hate Vista) There are many third party programs which do a better job of conversion - the one I use is AVS Video Converter 6. It took the raw MOV file from the SD card and converted it to AVI format with the 720 lines preserved and good sound quality. As with all such conversions it is slow but the quality is excellent. This is not a trivial conversion. Of course AVS will convert it to any of a dozen other formats - some with smaller file size - but none with higher quality. Since this camera is so new, the Kodak web site has very limited documentation for the Zx1. They avoid entirely the issue of file formats and that is because it is a thorny issue. Along these lines I should mention that without loading any software, you can slip the SD card in your computer slot and you will get a MOV file. It comes up as a Quicktime file. My version of Quicktime played the movie O.K but there was no sound. I'm sure an update is available - but it may not be free. Of course my Quicktime player did play the MOV file after it was converted by ArcSoft. Hey for $150 - this is a great buy and it seems to be durable also. 29 of 29 people found the following review helpful

GREAT CAMERA BUT,
By DG - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Kodak Zx1 720p Pocket HD Camcorder (Red) (Electronics)
Got the camera for my mother to use when she babysits my daughter. The camera is very easy to use and comes with all the cables and rechargeble batteries.The HD resolution is unreal, on the computer and TV (camera comes with HDMI cable). I just returned from a cruise and videos are great. The only problem I found was low light conditions. Using it inside can be a problem with limited light, otherwise the camera performs better than I expected. |
