KODAKPIXPRO FZ55-BK 16MP CMOS Sensor Digital Camera 5X Optical Zoom 28mm Wide Angle 1080P Full HD Video 2.7" LCD Vlogging Camera (Black)

I bought this camera because I really wanted a digital one that wasn't $800+. I hard bought digital cameras on amazon before and they were always terrible quality so I was skeptical. However OMG this is the best camera I have ever used for the price wow. I would wait for a price drop because every so often the price drops so I would wait and not pay the $180. I take the camera with me everywhere and it takes the cutest pictures and it elevates your instagram. The only settings I have in it are force flash and the vivid filter which makes you look so tan. You can play around with the settings and filters but I would always recommend force flash it really elevates the photos. it is also pretty compact and a good size. Ive never videos on it so I dont know anything about that but for photos I recommend you just need to buy an SD card separate and an adapter to download the photos onto your phone or laptop. I would so recommend 1000/10!!

This digital camera fits my lifestyle. I am not a photographer however i do prefer to capture with a digital camera versus my phone. The battery life on this is excellent as i charged it before i went on my travels and did not need to recharge it. I have not used the feature that captures darkness such as a sunset area or when going on a tour there are dimly lit rooms. I have learned how to use macro on and off to capture tiny details and its background. I tucked this camera into my jeans rear pocket for quick access to capture. The camera powers on and off nicely and quickly. The captures quickly. I choose blue as there are a lot of black/silver digital cameras out there. I personally think the quality of the photos are good if you know how to capture properly! (meaning use the focus feature before capturing).

this is my first digital camera and I’m obsessed with it. It takes clear pictures and has a surprising amount of storage for being so small. I recommend looking up settings for it on tiktok because thats what I did

I’m not an expert on cameras or anything this is just my experiencePro:I bought this for a concert and I got some pretty good shots despite being kinda far away.When it DOES focus on zoom it’s actually really clean but you need a steady hand lolThe assemble is quick and easy with instructions and you don’t have to change too many settings for a nice photo. It also comes charged!!Con:The battery on mine only lasts about an hour even when I’m just looking through photos (and not taking them) which was really disappointing.I don’t have anything to compare it to but the focus is a little wonky when you zoom in (I may just have to adjust a setting.)This does not come with an sd card. I could take photos without one but I’m not sure what/where they saved to.Overall:I really like this camera it’s my very first and I can’t wait to use it again the quality is really nice I’m happy with my purchase. 😌

An inexpensive point-and-shoot. I purchased this camera because Canon is no longer making the elf camera. It is small enough to stick in a pocket and fun to use. I am enjoying the bells and whistles and really love this little thing - it takes much better pictures than a camera in the phone -- and you can get an attachment to plug the SD card right into your phone and download the pictures. Many ways to have fun. And since the camera was inexpensive, I ordered extra batteries, a nice case and extra SD cards-- win-win

Quality of pics is 10/10. A SAN disk sd card is all that would work in mine, the Kodak brand would not upload to my phone

DISLIKES: No external charger for the battery. Most digital cameras I have purchased in the past always came with an external charger. This one only charges the battery internally, unless you buy an external charger, which I would highly recommend one always have an external charger for extra/spare batteries for your camera! Also didn't like you only access the manual by reading or downloading on-line. What is wrong with manufacturers today? They SHOULD supply manuals with their products, no matter what it is. Not have the end user go hunting for it, and many times when I went seeking a manual for a product I bought, if the manufacturer may have discontinued the item, they tend to remove the manual, and now it's no longer available to access, even though you may have bought the item new, no manual with it is just dumb and lazy on their part. If I am printing it on paper, then they sure didn't save any trees, and maybe I had to print it several times before I got the fomatting right to put it in a notebook or folder for future reference, wasting paper and more trees. Manufactures take notice, you ARE NOT doing the trees or the end user any favor by EXCLUDING manuals from your products!LIKES:Easy to use, but then I have been accustomed to digital cameras for a very long time, so I can navigate around them very easily, and I found this one very easy to navigateonce I checked out all the buttons and what they did. Has a nice LCD screen for viewing your photo's after taking the shots, one thing I don't quite understand is the "slideshow", you get 3 options to pick from #1, #2 or #3, #1 just shows the basic snapshot and really does nothing. #2 will do some type of effect, as does #3, but to me, they make no rhyme or reason for even being there at all.They don't copy to your computer when transferring the photo's to your computer, you'd have to use another program, like some kind of video editor to create a slide show with similar or like effects. And the issue is, it's NOT a slide show of the photo's in the camera or on the SD Card, it only affects the ONE PHOTO you're viewing, so it's not a slideshow by any means. When I selected it to see what it did, it just affected the one photo I was viewing, I had expected to see a slideshow of ALL the photo's I had taken or be allowed to select a specific number to create a slideshow that could be saved as a video exported file from the camera, but none of that is possible. Waste of a camera resource in my opinion.The photos are good, and I have attached a few here to show the cameras' capability in low light conditions, the two photo's of the same kitten (Cordellia-001/-002) are indoors in low light, the older cat (Apollo), taken outside is nearing sunset. Forgive the messy look of the floor inside the house, we're in the process of removing the carpeting from our house, and we're just starting work on it, so the floors look a tad messy for the time being.Even with the Dislikes and the few faults it has, I can recommend the camera, it seems to take nice photographs, I haven't tried videos as yet, I have some projects in mind for that for YouTube later on. I mostly purchased this camera for still photos when on nature walks or other outside activities that may be photo-worthy.
