Rocking:Kodak is always rocking with the innovative features and is having the widest range f having the supersonic instruments. The specialty of this device is that the Video Capturing resolution is mind blowing and marvellous with the 1080p HD resolution. The quality is much better than what a mini camcorder should have!! Rechargeable battery and automatic image stabilization are the prime features.

Shocking:The prices are not too high according to the quality but still with this price, an optional memory card is definitely expected. Also Kodak missed the playback of 1080p video’s smooth functioning.

Our Verdict:It’s the perfect piece that is expected from Kodak. The splendid quality and superb charm of the piece is one of the high quality features of the Camcorder. Seeing all the specification it is difficult to have the negative remarks for the Zi8. The video quality and the audio quality have surpassed even the Flip Video’s quality.

Cost: $179.95

Kodak Zi8 Pocket Video Camera Overview

Since last some years, the pocket Camcorder is no more in the trend and they were taken off for various reasons, but after that people really missed any of the camcorders that can match the quality and also the size that was the fabulous part of the pocket Camcorder. Now, since last few years, the Flip Video is considered as the option for that but still the people were not satisfied fully with that. Even the Camcorder manufacturer companies like Creative, Sony and RCA were trying to match the quality of the Flip Video and the size of the pocket Camcorder but one of them could reach the nearer place also. But ultimately in the end this job is done to massive extent by the technological giants, Kodak with the introduction of Kodak Zi8 Pocket Video Camera.

The Zi8 is not the exact replacement of the pocket camcorder but still it’s quite near to that device and also it has got the smashing video quality that can be definitely considered as the even better choice than the Flip Video. The feature of electronic image stabilization is also quite suppressive in the camcorder. The quality of the camcorder would never let you to believe that it is available in lesser than $200!!

The Company

Kodak is one of the most established and highly knowledgeable companies in this industry. The way, Mineral Water industry came into light with the Bisleri product, so no one would ask for the mineral water, instead they’ll ask for the Bisleri. So, the Bisleri has become the Brand name of the product. Also let’s see the example of Xerox, now that’s the make name, but people started saying the entire project of making the photocopy as Xerox. So, Xerox became the brand name for the Photocopy industry. Same Way, Kodak has become the Brad name for the camera. Majority of the people ask for the Kodak Camera Roll as they are not even aware that there are other companies also!! So, Kodak has made their market quite distinguish and also quite deliberate!!

The product

Kodak has recently introduced the range of the camcorders like the Kodak Zi6and also the latest model of Zx1. But, still both were never up to the mark of Kodak. They are still better for the beginners and also have got some resolution problem in the video quality. But, the Zi8 is the sleekest and deadliest camera that makes the viewer convinced to buy. Even the weight is absolutely nothing. It is quite light weighted. The measurement and the dimension of the camera is 2.4 inches by 4.5 inches by 0.9 inch and the weight is just merely 4.8 ounces.

Colour and feature

There are three colours available in this camera. Mate black, aqua, and raspberry are the three awesome colours offered. The camera is also having the perfect and passionate LCD screen of 2.5 inch. This size can be considered as the most appropriate size one could ever have for the camera. The critics have still found a drawback that the camera screen is so clear that even if you hold with the fingers, you need to wipe it all the time in order to make it clearer. But, I feel the dirty things never make the dirt focused, the clearer it is, and the more dirt or print it will show. So, Kodak can be considered as of the clearest camera with the magnets on it.

Battery

The battery life is more important in any of the cameras. As you can never have the camera charger all the time wit you, so the longer the battery life and the more practical it is!! With the Zi8, the company have used the slimmest battery which is also rechargeable ones. Other better feature for the batteries is that the camera can be charged up with our computer also. The flip-out cable is the device that makes the Battery more powerful than ever. The camcorder is also shipped with the AC adapter which facilitates us to have the camera charged by keeping it secure on the wall.

Resolution

It’s one of the highest resolution providers in this category and this cost. The lens quality and the image quality are far better than the previous models. The pocket camcorder is having the resolution of 1080p 30fps video capture and is enriched with the huge and gigantic 5 megapixel image capture. The CMOS sensors are the base of all the innovations in the resolution quality. This camera is the best video recorder as it produces the recording speed of 720p resolution and henceforth the recording quality and clarity are absolute thunderous. The speed of recording is making the camera as the “best for sports and action” camera.

Summary

So, the biggest invention of the Kodak and also the better quality of the resolution and the compact size makes this camera as the top quality camera in this category with the most affordable rates. It’s definitely the better choice of the pocket camera.
