Review on Kodak PIXPRO Astro Zoom AZ251-SL 16MP Digital Camera: Maximum Optical Zoom and Crystal-Clear LCD Screen in Silver by Ghazali Dikir

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The product is working, I will not repeat it for sure.

I bought to replace the ancient 4-megapixel kodak. As I found out later, the kodak is now not quite a kodak. The brand has been repurchased. The old camera still sometimes works, so I was able to take comparative test shots. Marvelous! But 16 megapixels of the new Kodak add little to the quality of the pictures. I shot on the "Auto" mode at maximum settings the same object from the same point. Then I looked at the computer at maximum magnification. The quality is practically the same. Pure marketing. However, for its price it is quite an adequate soap dish. Keep in mind. Only regular batteries included. If you need batteries - you need to buy extra.

Pros
  • Price. Looks solid. Quite light for its size. It is convenient to hold and take pictures with one hand.
Cons
  • Focusing. Poor focus in low light. Apparently a weak autofocus backlight. Therefore, where you could get excellent shots with a flash, nothing happens. At high magnification, it focuses very poorly. Therefore, all this ultra zoom is often useless.
