PIXPRO Friendly Zoom FZ41 16 MP Digital Camera with 4X Optical Zoom and 2.7" LCD Screen (Black)

This is a great little camera for the price. The sound quality in videos isn't great, but the still picture quality is excellent, and the video quality is as expected for the resolution of the camera. I got enough video and pictures to fill an 8 GB SD card out of a set of standard duracell batteries, which seems reasonable to me. I mount the camera to my bike's handlebar and take it on nature trails and the camera has handled all the bumps and jostling okay. I wouldn't want to drop it or keep it out in the rain but it's rugged enough to handle what I've put it through so far.. Update after almost 2 months of use... As I mentioned above, I have this camera mounted on the handlebar of my bike, which I've taken for many miles on bumpy roads and dusty dirt trails. So the camera has been subjected to a lot of vibration, bumps, and shakes. It still works as good as new. At least one review mentioned problems with the auto-focus, and another with the USB cable. I've had no problems at all with either. Jut connect the cable from the camera to your PC and it pops up as an external hard drive from which you can copy, paste, and delete just like any other drive. You can connect to the camera by USB cable even when the camera batteries are dead. But note that if you use rechargeable batteries you CANNOT recharge the batteries through the camera and USB connection. You have to have a separate charger for your batteries. Good AA non-rechargeable batteries last me for a couple of weeks, typically taking several hundred still photo and half an hour or so of video. Batteries are cheap, and I prefer a camera that uses standard batteries that I can get anywhere, rather than a special type of rechargeable battery that you can only get online or at a specialty battery store when you need a replacement or spares. This camera is simple to use, with standard, straight-forward and intuitive menus and buttons for controlling the settings, auto-flash, viewing your pictures, formatting the optional SD card, and etc,.

The wife and I have always used Kodak cameras. They last a long time and take pretty good pictures. This particular camera is a bit smaller than our last one, which is great. It is lighter too. We have taken many pictures with it and works great. I would definitely recommend this camera for anyone who needs an inexpensive camera that is easy to use and takes nice pictures.

Bien que le descriptif amazon dise "batteries lithium ion". L'appareil est alimenté par des piles alcalines (jetables, non rechargeables). Bien que remboursé par amazon, service client toujours au top, je ne recommande pas se produit. En piles alcalines, c'est du délire, il faudrait les changer tous les deux jours!

Easy to use. Good pictures for the value.

Great camera for your purse. I wanted a small camera to keep in purse so I can take those unexpected pictures when my phone is low on battery power. This Kodak takes 2 AA batteries. Keep two loaded in the camera and 2 as a spare in your bag and you are good to go. This way you never have to worry about draining your mobile phone when you want to take pictures.
