Editor's note is added below.
We have seen Flip Video impostors (anyone remember the creative Vado?), but the Kodak's Zi6 Pocket video camera is the first, which gives a Pure Digital series the money it illustrates the 720 p. video 60 frames/second, and unlike the Flip video cameras to film it is SD-Card slot that can hold cards equal to the 32 GB and still images of the Zi6 can be executed (which is dedicated to the macro, start).
Pure Digital Flip Mino compared to 4.5 x 2.5 x 0.9 inch Zi6 is gigantic, but it is comparable in size, the older Flip Ultra, which was always more than the light to do so. In fact, 3.8 ounces, the Zi6 is lighter than many digital cameras, and is also notified if a little longer.
But the Flip Ultra displays the type of the Fisher-Price toy, the Zi6 has the same glossy appearance than the upcoming Motorola Zine training Kodak Camera Phone: een. It has a Satin black (or pink) on the back, with protruding lens, matte silver accents and sharp 2, 4-inch screen. Next to the lens, there is a button that appears on the screen a built-in USB connector out.
Interface centers around five-way joystick pad with the red part of a navigational watch that doubles as a button on the record. VGA, HD, and still photo HD60 mode transition requires suitable for pushing the joystick from side to side, which we found the unintuitive.Flanking measures to remove the buttons on the joystick are content, stop playback and entering and exiting the playback mode.
On the left side of the camera are HD and AV ports, the port and the bottom is a tripod is sliding to the left of the macro-mode-switch and — our favorite part — THE SD/SDHC card slot, which lasts for the cards to equal the size of 32 GB. It has 128 MB of internal memory, so you need to store multiple movies, in particular for long in the SD card.$ 260 SanDisk Ultra II SDHC 32 GB card to pay more than the camera itself, but fortunately, you don't need to be nearly that much storage. more modest 2 GB card is to be regarded as a 30 fps approximately 40 minutes HD video and pay you around thirty bucks.
Pure Digital flip video cameras such as the Zi6 has its software, so it will be installed when you connect the camcorder to go to the notebook's USB port.(Note that the camera has to be, so it can be used on battery power.) ArcSoft MediaImpression for Kodak rotate images and automatically fix red eye. Flip is a piece of software, such as it is uploaded to the YouTube directly, although you will not be able to choose the privacy settings in advance, as well as to compile.
The biggest drawback MediaImpression: n is that you cannot edit movies, much less to add music, such as the Flip Video videojaksoja. We had, however, edit our footage using Adobe Premiere Elements 4. Wish also that the software will detect the JPEG by default.When you install the program, make sure that you Check the box next to the JOINT PHOTOGRAPHIC EXPERTS GROUP (JPEG), when you can get information about the file formats section.
Editor's note: Kodak Zi6 for ArcSoft MediaImpression, more powerful ONBOARD version of the software included with the CD version. Our review unit came with A CD, and is not, however, we originally completed, it was a poor editing features.When our original review of the posted, we tested the entire software and found that it allows for a richer editing experience in a Member State other than the above Features are, for example, the ability to ... Add titles, music and transitions, and cut the movies.Who is par for the course of your Pocket video cameras.
Zi6 fashion shoots VGA or HD 720 p video at 30 or 60 fps. Kodak has both options, because the 30 fps video takes up less room but 60 fps video is, of course, be reduced.Kodak recommends action scenes in 60 fps option in particular.
We have filmed the carousel Sunny days, and both the auto toy dimly lit room 30 fps, 60 fps. in both cases, 60 fps looks for smoother (as you can imagine), but yet I looked at 30 fps can be accepted.2 X digital zoom is a bit jerky but more flexible than the Flip Mino.
60-Fps-videos, we can draw up (neither was great, capturing foreground detailed movement) of the background in more detail. sound quality was hard and life, as well as clips.In short, 60 fps is the best, but the 30 fps is fine, too. [1] [2] Although we saw blur in both modes, the Zi6 video is even better than VGA Flip models has to offer.
Zi6 will take 3 megapixel still photos (Flip-it is not yet do this camcorder). when it came to Shooting moving and far away, we found ourselves wishing to image stabilisation and the optical zoom (it has 2 X digital). This said, we were impressed with the colors and exposure, and the macro shots came out of our way to love the camera, so Zi6. [1] [2] is not as good as a typical standalone digicam, but as long as your themes are still quite close and the pictures are adequate, a Member State to fulfil obligations — and often good.
Zi6 contains two Rechargeable AA batteries. Accumulators from three-fourths of Shooting HD video at 30 fps, 60 fps only a few minutes after the lost full bar battery Me. when we turned the camera off and back on, the icon showed a better battery. in any event, that the 60 fps video HD eat even more battery is good to know, when you want to make every minute count.
Kodak Zi6 belongs, as well as the $ 179 Flip Mino in this area. [1] [2], which describes the Mino VGA movies, was still kicking of shooting short films tens of days.
Kodak Zi6 is lightweight and easy to use and to take proper HD video and crisp macro photographs. [1] [2] And it has the SD-cards, one of the Flip Video Ultra and Mino you do — all this for $ 179, flip Mino, the price for the design of the Mino is faster. [2] [3], but we rather make and use the Kodak Zi6 built-in video editing features, despite the absence of.
