Kodak

The Kodak Zi8 is a must have pocket camcorder in full HD. It can record in 1080p full HD at 30 frames per second. Or you can record in 720p at 60 frames a second. I prefer using the 720p at 60 frames a second because it’s a smoother picture and if you are jus using it to record videos for youtube you don’t need full HD. You will only need full HD if you plan on putting this on a big HD screen. The camera is very sleek and you can fit it in your pocket or wherever. Its not big and bulky like other “pocket” recorders. This will give you a great HD video in no time! It charges up pretty fast, I think it only took me about an hour to go to full charge once it was dead. It stores around an hour worth of video, and the on the camera mic is pretty good as well. Most pocket camcorders have mics built in on them but the quality is extremely poor. Not with this Kodak Zi8, you get great video and audio. Overall this is a great camera at a reasonable price that we can all afford, everything is in HD now a days so you will need an HD recorder to capture all of those quick moments that you want to capture. This is the device you need, no setup or even manual needed. Just turn it on and press record. The downfall of this camera is that in low lighting levels it struggles, but most pocket HD recorders struggle in low light. So if you keep this in good lighting like outside during the day, you will have a high quality HD video when you are done shooting. Really can beat it, its definitely worth a try.
