I got my MaxAssurance Purchase card for $177.19 to replace my camera. Currently, the price of the Zi8 is $179.99, while the PlaySport $139.99, after a %7 discount. I was wondering which has the better video and sound quality. I know they're both 1080p, take 5MP pictures, and have image stabilization. But which one is overall better? I know the PlaySport is waterproof, and the Zi8 has a tripod mount. So which one should I buy.
Answer
The video quality is the same for both cams: 1080pâ1920 x 1080, 30 fps 720p / 60 fpsâ1280 x 720, 60 fps 720pâ1280 x 720, 30 fps WVGAâ848 x 480, 30 fps.
The Kodak Zi8 has an external microphone input jack and the PlaySport does not. Other than the Play Sport being water proof that may be a trade off between the two cams.
I wouldn't use a cam underwater as much as I would like using an external microphone with a cam.

Hi! I'm a beginner photographer to (I'm Student Council Historian at my school :) And the camera I got for my birthday is under 200 dollars and is great! Search for a Canon Powershot Elph 100 HS. It works just as well as a professional camera, is easy to use, and is inexpensive. I highly recommend it. As for the cameras you suggested....
Nikon COOLPIX? THEY SUCK SO MUCH. I had one before and wanted to smash it on the floor on several occasions. All the photos come out unclear and blurry and look terrible.
Kodak? eh, I personally hear the word Kodak and think outdated, but that's just me. Seriously, get a powershot, you'll be so happy you did. Some features it has are...
-- Fisheye Lens (I cannot even begin to describe how cool this feature is!)
-- HD Video (amazing quality!)
-- Portrait
-- Slow shutter (for drawing photos with lazers, the camera captures the movement of the lazer, creating a photo!)
-- Rapid shooting (for sports events, performances, etc.)
-- Sepia/Black&White/Blue/Vivid/Light Contrast/Dark Contrast colors
-- Poster setting (I love this one!)
-- Color accent (changes everything to black and white, but keeps one color!)
-- Beach scenes
-- Underwater scenes (with waterproof case!)
-- Winter/Snow scenes
-- and a tonnnnn more I'm probably forgetting!
