The world of consumer electronics is thick with compromise. It's a sad fact that blows harder than the north wind, and is getting worse as designers keep trying to load smaller, cheaper devices with piles of high-end features. That's why we went mad ov...

The Kodak Zx1 is a more robust than many of its rivals, capable of withstanding harsher weather conditions. We didn’t test its ice-resistant claims but we did try out its video capabilities. Like the other models, it has 2in LCD screen, records in 720p...

Offering a lot of what we like about Kodaks Zi6 pocket camcorder, the Kodak Zx1 has a slicker, more durable frame. Like the Kodak Zi6, the Kodak Zx1 has the ability to shoot 720p high-def video at either 30 or 60 frames per second and carries the very...

Very reasonable priced, colour-oversaturation problems resolved, looks great and feels great in the hand.

Flip Video MinoHD is a better HD pocket camcorder but is more costly, weak microphone. Min specs: CCD: CMOS x 1/4.5in; 1.6Mp; 3Mp stills, JPEG; fixed focus lens; Focal Length: 4.1mm; Aperture: f/2.8; Digital Zoom: 2x; Exposure/Balance: White Balance: auto...

We liked the variety of shooting options on the ZX1 and its compact yet durable design. We would’ve liked to have seen more onboard memory or the provision of at least a modest SD Card in the box, however. And while the footage we took looked good...

The Kodak ZX1 closely resembles the Creative Vado HD and, with its metalised front, reminded us of the company’s Zen Micro MP3 players. Its red-on-black colouring, meanwhile, reminds us of props from Disney’s ‘Tron’ film. More importantly, the Kodak ZX1 is an admirably compact camcorder — approximately a third smaller than the Kodak Zi6 — that tapers down to the bottom and fits naturally into a pocket. We took it on a fairly hectic cycle ride, through forests and down steep hills, where it had...

Today for review our friends at Geeks.com have sent me over a pocket camcorder called the Kodak Zx1. The Zx1 is an inexpensive and feature packed little camera, not only does it do 720P HD videos at 60FPS, but it also has video out and the memory can b...

The Kodak Zx1 is not a bad little pocket camcorder to play around with. It’s competing with things like the Flip, the HD Flip costs a lot more money than this camera does though. For the price the Zx1 isn’t too bad really, and it is weather resistant...

I really do like the Zx1, I have looked at quite a few small portable digital camcorders and the Zx1 is one of the better ones that I have seen. It is very easy to use, can shoot 720p at both 60 and 30 frames, and can fit up to a 32GB SDHC card. The b...

if I had to choose I would pick the Zx1 over the HDflip. The reason is the thinner size, different recording quality options, and ability to have higher storage space with the SD cards. The HDflip on the other hand would be perfect for someone who is...

When Kodak released the Zi6 (), its ease of use and very good video quality raised the bar and expectations for pocket HD camcorders. The Zx1, however, fails to reach that bar, with its video quality proving to be a letdown. Product:Zx1Rating (Scale) 5...

Good general color reproduction; three shooting modes.

Outdoor shots have blue cast; yellow cast in video shot with typical indoor lighting; poor video quality in lamplight; zoom stutters.

The pocket HD camcorder market is fiercely competitive, with great choices such as the Zi6, Flip UltraHD, and Xacti VPC-CG10. The Zx1 is more compact than those three devices, but its video quality leaves much to be desired. We recommend choosing one...
