The zoom is incredible and the quality of the pictures is crisp with a nice vintage-digital feel to them. Audio/video quality is also great, not muffled at all.

Not Worth The Money
Very difficult to get a photo that is clear resolution & editing in an app after loading onto computer doesn’t help any. Also difficult to get lighting set for each picture. Everything is too dark. I bought it to train my grandson to use a camera. I’ll just let him use my pro camera! I would’ve returned it but it was a gift & window had closed by the time he got it.

Photos aren’t sharp
I wish I’d listened to the reviews more. I bought this for the lens that could zoom (mainly to take pictures of backyard birds), but the photos simply aren’t sharp enough. They’re really no better than my older phone. The plus is that it’s a very easy camera to use and would be good for someone who wanted something basic. But honestly, if the quality isn’t that great, why wouldn’t someone just use their phone???

So disappointing
I owned a similar Kodak camera many years ago, so I thought this would be a great camera for my trip to Alaska. Wrong. So glad I had my phone camera for a back up. As far as ease of use, sure it was fairly simple to operate. Settings were not too complex to figure out.But the picture quality is just terrible. It wouldn’t focus 90% of the time. I tried and tried to adjust the settings, nothing helped. I finally gave up the hopes of getting any kind of quality picture out of this camera. The Kodak brand did not live up to the standard it once had.

Great little camera
When I wanted a smaller camera (smaller than my DSLR) to take on trips, I found this one. It has many of the features of my DSLR, and the zoom feature is optical, not digital, so it takes great pictures. I highly recommend it.

This camera was the worst perchase I have ever made. I bought it on May 20th, and it is June 11th, it has shut off completely and will not turn back on. It does have amazing quality, the pictures came out great and is very easy to use. The battery lasts a very long time. It zooms very far in and is a very nice camera. But I do not recommend buying this its usage life is very short. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!

DON’T BUY THIS CAMERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
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.

Great product for the price
The media could not be loaded.
I pick this camera for the price, I’m really happy for it. The image quality is pretty good in photos, but taking a video could be a little bit messy when zooming in/out, after 30x focusing is bad and the time to get a sharp image is kind of slow, even using a tripod. If you want to shoot a video zooming in, especially for moving objects, this isn’t the best product for you; however, if you are an amateur like me and use a camera from time to time, this is a good option.

Great buy for a starter
Since becoming a mother, I’ve been wanting to get a camera to capture moments instead of always using my phone and taking up storage space! This is a great beginner camera! The camera is lightweight & I’m excited to use it .Some cons are there don’t seem to be many videos on how to use this camera to it’s entirety as far as the different features and the user manual is super short and doesn’t tell you much. The only other con which isn’t a huge dealbreaker for me is that the autofocus is extremely slow . I’m going to test it out for a few days and leave an updated review !**** okay after a few days I had to come back and update my review. The autofocus is still very slow which ended up being a deal breaker after all seeing how other cameras capture photos and the picture quality isn’t that great on the camera (it could be different once downloaded but I’m not sure) . Don’t recommend the purchase

A great workhorse at a small price
I purchased this point and shoot camera to have on hand while I travel. As a an artistic photographer it is important to have a tool like the Pixpro to capture images that come out of nowhere. It performs well at both tight macro and zoom settings. The images are sharp and perfect for the enlargements I use for my final prints. The small downside is the need to carry spare AA batteries. To that end I would recommend investing in a AA charger and a set of rechargeable batteries. Overall, a great value for the money spent.Consider investing in a hard shell case as well.

Potentially Decent Camera!
I used this product for photographing a model in amble light situations. I am not a professional but even after doing some research and studying this camera for use, I could not find a pleasant photo to show for it. I tried each camera setting, adjusted each of these setting, and even fixed the lighting in each of my photo areas. Still, my photos would come out blurry, noisy, Or underexposed. I tried to give this camera the benefit of the doubt and see if the video setting was any better than the photo. I admit this camera has decent quality, video recording but, after trying to view that same video on a computer(Lenovo- chrome book) I was unable to see the file or video. Which again became a big disappointment. Although I read the reviews before purchasing this camera I still had to give it a try for myself! After trying this camera out I would not primarily recommend this camera to any friends! I can say that you get what you paid for. This is a nice cheap camera which has potential if you’re invested in learning how to use it or invested in purchasing camera accessories to make your photos pop. 2/5 Stars.

Camera does not focus well.
I am currently taking a digital photography course and needed an affordable digital camera to use for projects. This one is a good price for what it is able to do; the image quality is great (don’t be fooled by what you see on the camera’s screen, the images look fantastic once loaded onto a computer) and i personally found the controls to be easy to learn for a beginner (even without a manual) but I just wasn’t satisfied with the focus. This camera does not have manual focus as a feature, only auto focus, so you’re kinda at the mercy of it. I personally would like to be in full control of my camera and its settings, but unfortunately this camera lacks a feature that I find is imperative to its use. At first I thought it was my fault that the camera would not focus, maybe I was too shaky or breathing too much etc. etc., but after some trial and error and a bit of research- I found that the main problem with this camera is its inability to focus well. It will focus, it just takes a Herculean amount of effort to get it to do so.I’d say that the KODAK AZ405 is great for those looking for a relatively cheaper option with which to begin their photography journey, but if you are considering buying this model I’ll warn you to make sure that you have enough patience to deal with its focusing issue to prevent becoming so frustrated that you throw it out a window.

THE PERFECT CAMERA FOR A PERSON LEARNING….
I usually just use my iPhone to take pics and while that’s great I really wanted to learn how to use a “real” camera. This has been a learning experience but I’m having a blast learning how to use it! I’m older so it’s taking me a minute – but it’s working great! Lot’s of tutorials online to learn from – so that works out great.

Good price, works fine thus far, lens cap way too loose
I haven’t used the camera much so this is an early review. The photo quality seems good. I purchased because it had a 40X optical zoom in a fairly compact camera for about $160. The image in the viewfinder doesn’t always seem to match what the photo looks like, although the photo is often the better of the two. Perhaps user error. It’s something I can fix I think but the lens cap is way too loose and needs some work to make the fit tighter.

Practice makes perfect.
Get a clamp or tripod to cut down on motion blur. Camera will blur in low light as the shutter speed in automatic is often very slow. I now use camera in one of the manual modes and have a lot better results. I have taken over 400 pics and now feel reasonably comfortable with picture quality. Do your research on taking clear sharp pictures and practice a lot to get good results.

Good starter camera for a preteen
I purchased this camera for my nephew’s birthday since he’s taken an interest in my photo equipment. He loves using it and carries it with him everywhere.It’s got something like a 40x zoom, which is interesting, and it’s nice and light considering its SLR-type profile. He’s new to photography, so this camera has made it easy for him to ease into some of the photography concepts that he’s learning.It would be nice if it had a rechargeable battery (this model takes two AA batteries, which initially come included), but I figure that’ll encourage him to be a little more intentional about the photos he takes.

Cute digital Camera
I used this camera for my senior photos, a stop motion animation film, and my brother’s professional portrait photos. I am no photographer but this was a decent camera for the price and it’s also just pretty cool. If you had a really nice phone it could probably take similar photos but I don’t so this is a nice way for me to take good quality pictures. I got it used – like new and there was photos on it already and they had taken the batteries but that is okay. The one complaint I have is how fast the batteries drain on this camera.

It does take pictures. And it does use AA batteries and it was inexpensive. These were three criteria I had for a camping camera. Outside if that it doesn’t have many admirable qualities. It’s slow to fire up. You will almost certainly need to use a tripod for stabilizing. The features that it does have are buried in layers of menus and it has a bit of a learning curve to figure out what combination of menu items will get you the desired pasture speed and fstop you need. This is definitely NOT for quick moving animals that may be gone in a blink. For landscapes or passive scenes it should be fine.

Nice Camera
Pros: I have used many different cameras over the years. I previously bought a camera (Kodak 26X still works fine) like this about 15 years ago and now with a better zoom and technology I decided to buy the newest version. This zoom is so nice. We live were there are birds and wildlife and love being able to get some nice photos without breaking out the big camera changing lenses and then putting it all away when done. Easy to carry around. Light weight. Overall a great camera for the money. Lots of photo options for different scenarios.Cons: Doesn’t have the second button for vertical photo. The lens cap isn’t secured in place with a click like my old camera. Therefor the lens cap comes off quite easily so be sure to use the string attachment so you don’t lose it.

Good beginner camera
Takes excellent photos, and good videos as well. Prone to automatically stopping recording if it’s going for too long though. And a bit frustrating to get to focus at times.

Great camera for the cost
This camera is a great value for the cost. It is a bit bigger than I wanted for a travel camera but it isn’t all that large and the value of the camera is such that I can overlook it. I wish they had a rating for value, I would have given it 10 stars.

The zoom is unbelievable and very clear.
Overall the picture quality is good and the zoom is excellent. I am having a few issues in a couple of areas like the time lapse function, but I will be reviewing the online manual to make sure that the issue isn’t the camera. Hopefully it’s just me.

Photo quality is awful
Bought this as a first camera for my wife. She loves taking pictures so she’d always take my phone as it has a better camera. So I decided to buy her this $185 camera as a gift expecting it to at least match the camera of her iPhone 11, with a better zoom. Boy was I wrong. I’ve attached a picture to the review, just look at it, a half-baked potato would’ve done a better job. iPhone 11 photo beside it for comparison.Perhaps photographers are gonna laugh at me and ask what I expected. But let this be a caution for beginners like me – save yourself from a headache, don’t buy this camera. Phones probably do a better job at this price point anyways, don’t bother and get a more expensive option straight away or just keep taking iPhone pictures

Dissapointing
I bought the camera for it’s zoom capabilities. The camera takes great photos of subjects that are close. However if you use the zoom the photos behind blurry and worthless. My cell phone camera does better.
