Review on Kodak PIXPRO Astro Zoom AZ251-WH 16MP Digital Camera With 25X Optical Zoom And 3&#34 by Matthias Foxx

This is a good digital camera with many features. Some reviewers say it's for beginners only, but I was blown away by all of its features. However, it only comes with a small black and white quick start guide that tells you next to nothing. For a detailed 95 page color manual you need to go to the Pixpro website and download the PDF file. Revain doesn't let you provide a website url, but if you search for az251-usermanual-en.pdf you'll find it. Make sure you choose the right camera, this is AZ251; there is also a Pixpro AZ521. Reading the online manual should help you decide whether to buy this camera. The camera has so many neat features... it's definitely not your dad's (or grandpa's) brownie starflash or pony cam! (I don't mind, they used to be fine and are made in the US by Kodak, unlike Pixpro). Some reviewers complained that the lens cap was loose. That's true, but if you look closely you'll see they have a little strap to attach the lens cap to the camera so you never lose it. The camera feels comfortable but is a bit heavy. And the camera is plastic, so it's probably worth buying a small camera case to protect it.
