Should i get the kodak playsport zx5 or the sony bloggie touch?




Jasmine


I wanted to get a new pocket camcorder and I can't decide between the kodak playsport and bloggie. The kodak is waterproof which is good (though I can only put to use the waterproof feature on vacation at summer and if we go to the beach) and shockproof which is also good because i tend to drop things easily. i don't really like the screen its kinda small and since i have a flip i know from experience. the kodak i know is good for adventures, and that is really what i do a few times a summer, like hike, bike, but i only do that in the summer or on spring break.
the sony has a sleek design which i LOVE and the screen is bigger and touchscreen. i love the WHOLE design of sony. i wish that it was waterproof though, because if i got a waterproof one (which is what i aimed for in the beginning) then i could take it anywhere with no limits :)

i love both (kodak because its waterproof and the design is ok but not my fav) (sony cause of the design )


here's also one question that i really want to be answered! lol :)
if you have a smaller display screen and a larger display screen (like the kodak is 2 inches and the sony is 3 in.) will you still capture the same amount of what you want to capture? or will u have to stand back if your display screen is smaller?
it kinda sounds dumb that i don't know the answer, but yeah i really don't know.
please answer! :)



Answer
Kodak PlaySport (Zx5) HD Waterproof Pocket Video Camera is just what I wanted to take to the beach. It shoots great video. Not so great pictures, but that isn't why I bought it. I even dropped it once and it is still working fine. I wish it had a lense cover because I slip it into my pockets all the time, and I'm afraid it will eventually become scratched.

Kodak Playsport zx5 question?




Jason Quin


I just got the Kodak Playsport zx5 on Saturday, hoping to use it to tape some segment of a concert that im going to this upcoming Wednesday.... So my question is, Whats the battery life of this camera? Lets say I want to tape like 15 clips of a 4-6 minute length and I fully charge the battery... will the battery hold up?

Whats the battery life



Answer
Hi Jason:

According to reviews, you'll get about 2 hours of continuous use from a full-charge. See Camcorder.Info's review page: http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/Kodak-Playsport-Zx5-Camcorder-Review/Handling-and-Use.htm

Don't expect great sound from a pocket camcorder at a concert; it's not going to look or sound like a music video. Just enjoy the show, don't bug your concert neighbors holding up your camera the whole show, and you'll have more fun.

hope this helps,
--Dennis C.

I was hoping to get a video camera for my birthday and i was wondering whats the best kind thats not higher than 250


Answer
Well as a cinematographer I have used a lot of cameras but it narrows down to only a few I'd suggest for under $250. First is Somy DCR-SX45, It's about $200. I am
currently using one of theses as a secondary camcorder that I take everywhere instead of taking my Canon XLH1 everywhere.
The second camera I'm gonna suggest is waterproof which is the Kodak Playsport (Zx5), about $159.00. I use this camera when skiing/snowboarding, canoeing/kayaking, swimming, and anytime it is suppose to rain.

What Pocket Camera Should I buy out of these 3?




Michael


Samsung HMX-U10
or
Panasonic HM-TA1
or
Kodak ZX1

May use will be for videoing while on holiday. I am currently favouring the Kodak model because it takes AA batteries so easy to switch out if run out of battery, but its only 720P unlike the other two which shoot in 1080P.

So which one would you recommend?
I do have a low budget of around $100 USD.

Check out Kodak Playsport Zx5 Video Camera
Shockproof, dustproof, and waterproof up to 10 ft
