Kodak PIXPRO AZ405-BK 20MP Digital Camera, 40X Zoom, 24mm Wide Angle Lens, Image Stabilization, 1080p Full HD Video, 3" LCD, Black

Such a great camera for beginners! The photos were really nice and it’s so handy if can fit in my handbag. The design is cute and the flash works. Buy an SD connector to the phone for easy transfer of photos to your iphone. The videos that I took are also of good quality.

This camera is a Kodak, so I already had some pre-conceived ideas about what it should be able to do. It not only does everything I wanted it to do, but it does lots more. It is easy enough to use that an absolute beginner can use it right out of the box (almost - you need an SD card), but it is also complex enough to satisfy the needs of a seasoned pro photographer. The zoom is an incredible 40X, and is almost too much - at the max zoom, it is like holding a telescope in your hands and trying to keep it still enough to see - it is truly amazing and fun to play with. The image quality is right up there with much more expensive units. I would give this little camera more stars if I could. All these quality features at this price point? It's a no-brainer - if you need a camera, get this one! You won't be sorry.

Had $2000 worth of DSLR equipment stolen. This item is an excellent inexpensive substitute. Has all the necessary manual settings to shoot great pics without all the equipment. Excellent value.

This camera is terrible in every aspect and design, to get the SD card out you have to open the battery compartment, which when doing so you loose all the settings as in date and time on the camera and you have to completely reset everything. If you use the cord to download the pictures to your computer instead of taking out the card it drains the batteries very quickly. Even when not using the cord to download, the batteries drain very quickly, it's such an issue that it's one of the trouble shooting things that they have listed with this camera. There solution is to shut off any apps or things on the camera you're not using, tells you to turn down the brightness of the screen. Really your solution to this problem is to disable features that are on this camera, what's the point of having those features if when using them they drain the batteries very quickly. Let me explain what I use this camera for, to take pictures of items I sell on line. I put in a new set of energizer batteries, tested them with my ohm/volt tester, they tested 1.58 volts. I took 17 pictures downloaded them by using the cord and then I took 10 more pictures and the camera shut off and right before it did it said batteries expired. So I took the batteries out and tested them and they tested 1.28 volts, which will make most things still run, like my game cameras. There's definitely an issue with these cameras and the power they use and how fast they drain batteries. I've also have had it lock up and stop working several times and it wouldn't shut off or do anything, had to open up the battery compartment which takes all the power from the camera so it will reset and then close it and then turn it back on. I had a Sony Cyber shot which they don't make anymore, for over 10 years and I took literally thousands of pictures with it and it cost half as much and the pictures were clearer and of higher quality than what this camera is capable of taking. I would still be using the Sony, but some how it developed a gray spot that was showing up in all of my pictures and it was causing potential buyers to ask what that spot was on the item. So I had to stop using it and bought this camera thinking it would work great for what I was doing and also work great for taking pictures of nature and wildlife. I wish I would have sent it back right away, but I figured I would give it a chance to get better, because they said it would if I did the update. Well it's only gotten worse with time instead of better.

Hi guys, I used this for 6 months and it’s lowkey good. The photos came out with good shade and perfect light ( i set the auto iso). One thing i don’t like it is because the photos are not 4K, kinda blurred and not shape enough. But in general, it’s good for those who just beginner to photography.

The camera is okay and takes good pictures. I use a camera every day for inspections and this is an okay camera for most uses, but not every day. The battery life is short and it takes 4 AA batteries. I did not look at the description very thoroughly as I thought I was purchasing a camera with a rechargeable battery. The camera is easy to use and it is small. I think the batteries add a bit of weight, so it is a bit heavy. The selections buttons and menu controls on this and most cameras are placed where they are always getting accidentally pushed especially when the camera is used one-handed. I wish the design for this would change. For me, having them on the left side of the screen would be much better.

Honestly I was hesitant to buy this camera however after tonight I don't regret my choice. Its easy to use even without the instructions and if you're like me by chance if you're playing around with it you will understand it faster than you would reading the instructions. It take 4 double A batteries and they drain slowly even if you use the flash. The camera itself is durable and the image quality is phenomenal. The speed at which it processes the photos is surprisingly fast as well. It only came with a strap to go around your wrist, a lens cap and neck strap. All in all this is a really great camera although I do feel it taking batteries is a little old school and should be more modern with a battery pack and c-plug charger that doesn't take away from the fact its a great camera. I highly recommend for those getting until intermediate levels of photography.
