Kodak Zi8 Digital Camcorder -- Great Camera for the Price
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Very nice picture, small learning curve, a number of picture quality options.
Cons: Need an external microphone for decent sound, short battery life.
Bottom Line:
The Kodak Zi8 has great, professional-looking picture, but terrible sound. It has an external microphone jack; as long as you have one, there are few drawbacks.

Not bad at all for the pricepoint and target consumers
| Author's Rating: |

Pros: Very good video for the price point, easy to use.
Cons: EIS doesn't do THAT much, would like a slightly longer battery life.
Bottom Line:
This is one of the best choices you have for a pocketable HD video camera right now. If you can wait, I predict many more choices within the next year.

Has It's Ups and Downs, But Ultimately it Has a Mic Jack
| Author's Rating: |

Pros: External Mic Jack, Standard SDHC cards, macro mode, Up to 1080p resolution, Replacable battery
Cons: Hole in focus range, 1080p looks like 720p, Short battery life, No mono mode
Bottom Line:
There's slightly more bad points than good, but if sound is important, the external mic jack tips the scale.
