Kodak PlayTouch review: Kodak PlayTouch

 

Kodak PlayTouch

Small, attractive body; headphone/mic jack; basic on-device clip editing; very good sharing features and software; responsive touch screen.

Mediocre video quality compared to previous models; squeaky battery door; can't use full screen for shooting.

Mediocre video quality and a couple design issues keep the Kodak PlayTouch from being a top-notch minicamcorder.

External mic option, removable battery and storage, choice of video capture modes, HDMI

Video quality isn't great, on-board mic is lacking, screen isn't put to best use, there seems little advantage to adding touch controls, seems expensive

The Kodak Playtouch makes the right moves, but doesn’t delight with the final results. The Full HD video capture lacks the impact we really want and there are various compromises along the way. The focusing switch offers macro potential, but we’d...

Kodak Playtouch review

 

Can the touchscreen-toting, Full-HD shooting, face-recognising Kodak PlayTouch back up its fancy features with an all-round winning performance?

Kodak PLAYTOUCH Digital Camcorder

 

Ok camera, a little clunky to use and the touch screen is really easy to hit when you are recording. I wish they wouldn't have quit making the zi8.
