 Any Kodak Camera you buy will be superior to Nikon Camera...for sure. Even my old, beat up, worn out Kodak from years ago, still takes superior pictures, has more photo options, more user friendly, than the newer Nikon a purchased. Do not buy a Nikon camera unless you like warped, fish eye or fish bowl photos..  Fish eye view is suppose to be a chosen effect, but with Nikon cameras, or at least the model I have, every pic you take is warped, fish eyed...where your darn feet are out of distortion, where objects appear larger than they really are...what a flaw...what a major flaw in Nikon...and I'm upset that I wasted money on their camera...this model right here...  And the flash never works when you need it, and flashes when you don't want it. With this Nikon camera, the images distort, and get larger the further away you get from center of focus...very aggravating... Also, their self timer only allows one mode...1 10 second shot... Where as Kodak gives you a more creative option...they have like 3-4 different self timer modes...where camera will take multiple photos while you sit there and pose, act silly, whatever. Kodak camera is just a better all around camera...better engineered with the user in mind. I hate wasting my money on products that don't deliver...and Nikon just hasn't, will never, deliver for me, unless they fix their flaws...and quit being so darn cheap... Their camera is more like a Camera you'd buy at a dollar store... So for me, for now, it's back to Kodak...a true, tried, peoples camera...  |

 I purchased a new Kodak pixpro camera...and once I prep it, I will take a few pictures and rate the camera. The camera is a bit smaller than I expected...but have to remember that today, with the microsizing of technology, size really has nothing to do with quality. And besides, I wanted a small inconmicuous camera...where I can take photos, a photo, without drawing a lot of attention... The last Kodak I had took excellent photos...let's see if this one does the same...more review to follow... |

 Ok, here I took two different photos with new Kodak PixPro FZ41 camera. I did not add any effects or anything...photos are raw and 'as is'...natural lighting. Not bad...notice there's no warping distortion as you get towards edge of photos... That's what I look for...the Nikon camera I have, warps the image, as you get closer to edge of photo... Like the opposite of 'fish eye' effect. That's terrible and messes up a lot of photos. Kodak, true to it's good reputation, doesn't do that. For some reason, many products tend to get cheaper, manufactured cheaper, with time. They start off good, then become low quality do to cost saving measures, I guess. But so far, I'm still happy with Kodak...they have made a good transition from Instant cameras, to digital...  |

Lumix! Want a solid camera, get a Lumix! I've had owned one for several months and love it so far, no fish eye effects along edge when taking photos. This camera is equal or better than the Kodak I've touted in the past on here. I haven't even used 1/20 of the features this camera comes with, but what I do especially like about it is the automatic self timer, which allows up to 3 quick portrait shots, rather than just 1 than many in the past have offered. So now you can set timer, do your thing, and camera will take 3 quick session shots of you while you pose away. And video quality is excellent, with it don't even need a camcorder. The camera is easy enough for a point and shoot photographer like me to use, yet has enough advanced features for any serious pro. I should of purchased two, cause I hate when I buy model I like, then following year they discontinue it. But this camera should be around for years in that it only gets positive reviews.

Silly Mega glasses 2 spy cam test (These glasses are at least 8 years old and still work!
Can't believe these spy cam glasses still work, they've got to be at least 8+ years old, but they still work, wow.
I need to order another pair. Usually they don't make things to last long anymore, but these spy cam glasses still indeed work, but not very good in low light.

Cheap Amazon ordered camcorder vs higher end Canon EOS...you decide
I think both cameras did well for their perspective class.

Simple solution if can't read camera displays
Not sure why I didn't think of this long ago, even works on other camcorders etc.
I'm so lagging in technology.
