"Broke the first time i used it"
on by tbg9Pros portablility, easy to store in your pocket
Cons not meant to be put in water even though it says waterproof to 3m
Summary I bought this camera specifically to use on my honeymoon in Hawaii. The very first time i used it was on a snorkeling boat. It worked great for about 5 min then the camera turned off. Got back on the boat to examine it and it was water damaged. I didn't take the camera deeper than 3ft and was in the water for about 10 min. I made sure the doors were snaped tight before entering the water. This should not happen! This is the second playsport i have owned (zx3 was the first). I am very disapointed with this camera and don't think i can trust another kodak near water.

"Good little camcorder"
on by martinwilliamhPros Small and lightweight
Easy to useCons No wi-fi for sharing
Summary This is the perfect little camera for HD video. We used to use a 7 year old Canon camcorder. But, it's so big and heavy we hardly brought it along anywhere to capture videos of the kids, etc. This is great and much better than trying to use our phones video.

"SD card door locks up"
on by ggvargasPros Good HD quality when it works,
Cons Sometimes the "HD" looks grainy, but not always
SD door locked up, could not open it up, even the best buy team couldn't open itSummary Video quality was pretty good over all, but if your gonna buy it, buy a 32 gb card and put it inside, cus you may not get another chance to switch cards ever again as the door jams on most of these...

"Doors lock up!"
on by triplecrowndadPros Shoots good videos and pics.
Cons After two uses, neither door would open. Therefore, can't download or charge. We're contacting Kodak tomorrow to see if they'll replace it. If not, I'm the proud owner of a $150 paper weight! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT!!
