Kodak Zi8 HD Pocket Video Camera NEWEST MODEL
I rarely print / review of the products, but I was disappointed to read the reviews of this product on Amazon, and using other websites, many users seem to think that this camera has been designed to compete with expensive professional cameras. The cost of thousands of dollars, and full production-quality HD video that is not what it is. In addition, the camera did not have a 'voice' of the problem, I have not seen a camera that is barely perceptible, and its almost seemed that a lot of background noise in a quiet glow or something.
Kodak has been designing, building and marketing to compete with the Flip camera and produced a good product.
I'll keep it short and sweet, and was first described to me and what I use, I use this camcorder.Home Video / fun things with friends and old friends.For when I need something quick and easy video to be uploaded online or in iMovie and edit.I need to work on more sophisticated video editing, video, or which may cause a certain length. I like the ease of use / carry.
I saw some of the issues that Mike and I have none of them. (I have a firmware update for the standard 1.03, and Kodak, this completely eliminates the problem ... never had a problem with my camera), a relative of mine was lucky enough to buy these products. Kodak has launched 'soon' for a few months ago, and some of his videos are a little 'higher than the background sound. But it does not interfere with the audio from the video - just the sound of the background light, frankly, I have heard dozens of cameras. I do not need an external microphone, so that the camera takes the Mono - the sound quality is not going to be good to go!
Good video, image stabilization is not as high as in more expensive cameras.However, it is a little 'more than I've ever seen in a flip or Kodak does not work and you can see the difference, although not great. It 's so easy to go from 1080p video mode is awesome, but sometimes it is best to get back down to 720 and 60fps video capture' action '.
One negative - that most people can be seen as positive - mode, I should set or at least be able to play with the added features and fixes Greater use of it for the camera. - But with a good lens and Kodak does not seem to have a - quite easily - with the camera with the camera for this reason. If all the hardware that was used to compete with the camera $ 500 +, but I understand the need to keep things simple.
I have a SD card to internal memory, and so, when buying an SD card the size of the camera is more expensive, but Flip, Flip has very limited memory, this camera can be limited by the size of the card. In addition, of course ..!
Finally, I know people who have done a lot in television and video blogs, and they are drooling over this camera is capable of an external microphone. Another of the 'pro' I do not like the noise is due. Kodak has the solution, not to mention the best video quality.
