Kodak Zx5 - Pros & Cons

Video quality is also improved
Color and exposure are generally good
Class 10 cards and both worked fine
three-step sharing process is pretty great
solid and well-built
make it easy to shoot compelling lifestyle images

the device freezes or locks up after several minutes of recording
the lens on front is unprotected
The micro-HDMI cable is not included
The camera has a grippy
rubbery coating
a built-in USB connector
looked too high in contrast and grainy in comparison
the battery is no longer removable
there are no jacks for headphones or an external mic
no flash or video light
a video camera that can resist water and rough use
There is no need for additional video editing software
Memory is a bit of a problem on the Zx5
Limited editing can be performed of on-camera video
the two doors over the ports and memory slot remain locked
does not have a full-sized USB plug
Kodak Zx5 is still not built to withstand extreme sports and activities
not very useful
aaand a bit stupid
an internal battery is not easily replaced by a user
