I actually got this camera for my birthday this year in June. It’s great, and my favorite blue. So many different effects and it has a 52x zoom (it can actually go further in zoom) I’ve taken a picture of the moon with this thing and I have to say it’s pretty impressive for such a small camera. I charge it every 2-3 days or so depending on how much I use it. Takes good videos too. Only problem is I don’t have tripod yet lol.
So I just got this yesterday for my birthday! I do have a good eye for photography, but I am what they call a complete beginner. Although I will say the tutorials online are helping! Looking forward to trying this camera out! Also learning Photoshop at the same time. What do you think about this camera a year later? Will this take better photos than the new iPhone or Samsung phones?
this seems like a stupid question but how do i charge it because i put the charger it came with in the av plug (ik it means audio visual but it didn’t power on right away so that’s all i could think of) and it only works whilst plugged in
Hey if you could show us how to get one of those set up that would be nice because I have the same color camera same model and I cannot get mine turn on or charge for some reason I bought it brand-spanking knew but ever since I came home with it. I was not able to do anything with it and I need to try to get it to work because I spent $250 on the damn thing and it don’t work and I do Railroad photography if you can make another video of how to get it set up and show us everything and show us what I need to do That would be great
Just got this camera. Not doing too well with macros at the moment and I do miss the view finder vs. the LCD screen. Perhaps you can do a video about macros before I return it.
Are you able to playbacl vodeo in slow motion or frame-by-frame on the actual camera display? Or does it need to be uploaded to a computer to see it in frame-by-frame or slow mo.
I just got this camera to replace my Nikon 40x zoom. You did not tell everyone that they need to buy the SDHC card since it shoots hi def videos. I still haven't figured out the wi-fi controls. I dont want that on my phone.
I have this camera I want to use it for kickboxing matches for pictures should I keep using it or get a new one if so what would be a good one in the price range
Recently purchased this camera as well! Looks great, I Haven’t had the opportunity to use yet but I have a question. Do you know if this camera is capable with (teleconverters) zoom lenses?
But you can teach us how to use the old kodak:) then bring us outside and teach us more tricks and techniques :) c'mon c'mon you can do it! Make some short videos as well with things you remember to show us as we go. Huh? I sound bossy?Have a nice day....I SAID HAVE A NICE DAY!
@Hiking Pennsylvania - I just got a new Kodak Pixpro AZ528 camera a few months ago, but need to change the date time and year settings on it and don't know how to do it. I keep touching the set button, but nothing is happening. Will someone please help me?
@@mason8009 YES -- kodak is aware of the problem. they sent me a new battery (which i plugged in when i received it, just in case) mostly charged. make sure when you email kodak, that you include the serial number in the email... 😁
I cannot get any of these features to work. Can you help me? Trying to follow manual but not seeing what I am suppose to see to select values. Display Setting - Press the (guessing DISP) button to display settings: Classic, Full, Off. Never see this. Using Mode Dial - Shutter priority S - how to set shutter speed and ISO value? Aperture priority A - how change aperture? Auto Mode - has auto mode, Landscape Mode, etc. has these funny looking shapes but I can't find them anywhere to select - A for Auto Mode, A square with mountains for Landscape Mode, etc. WHERE are THEY? Continues with Portrait Mode, Night Portrait, Backlit Portrait, Night Mode, Macro Mode - WHERE are THEY?? Face Beautifier - says to press this button and select a Red square with a white something in the red square - cannot set - can't find. Also has a cross with a 1 or 2 or 3 for different effects - Cannot find these either Touch-up - select something I cannot find and press SET button to reduce red eye, soften skin, eye brightening, eye enlargement? WHERE ARE THESE BUTTONS??? Rotate - Select a arrow and press SET to turn right or left?? WHERE IS THIS ARROW button? Reside - has a really strange shape to select and press SET to enter setting screen to resize. WHERE is this strange shape so I can resize? I'm not even bothering to do difficult stuff...just what I thought would be basic functions. The manual and online youtube videos ASSume you know how to find those buttons and shapes to press...WHERE ARE THEY? Thank you. I have another good week to figure out where are these missing buttons. I cannot move forward if I cannot find the buttons to select. Most of the shapes on these manuals are just a dark color with a light color in the middle or something. Can't see them but not finding any buttons to press anyways.
Would u recommend this as a camera to do photo shoots with? I plan on getting it soon just wanted to make sure because I’ll be doing a lot of holiday shoots on there
Hiking Pennsylvania thanks a lot man! Definitely subscribing ! Never seen someone respond so fast to their comments keep it up man you gotta good heart
That's what I just bought mine for, a concert. I left my Canon Powershot at home which has great audio but I've heard through another review that the Kodak's AZ528 audio is not that great. What do you or anyone else think of the audio on this camera relating specifically for live concerts?
Also be sure you buy a standard SD or SDHC memory card. No SDXH, Ultra or Extreme cards as they are usually more expensive and aren’t guaranteed to be compatible.
I have a couple questions since the person at Walmart couldn't answer them fully: When recording video, you said it's only 6fps. I'm looking for something that can act as a UA-cam camera but the frame rate seems too low since most videos I see is either 30 or 60 fps. Is there any way to amp up those frame rates to make a good video? Also, is this camera DSLR? If so, I may consider buying one since it's on sale for $179.
Iv'e been using this camera exclusively for about a year now and have had no issues with framerate and Iv'e never changed the factory settings. I do all my editing with Davinci Resolve 15. I still need to figure out settings for focus and It would be better if it had a front facing screen.
@John Espo To be honest... It is a nice camera that does what I need it to do. The focus is a bit touchy when your up close in macro and you try to zoom. It does focus nicely when the object is further but, you need to adjust the zoom properly to get full clarity. I'm not a professional photographer, and I am still (after a year) trying to figure out all the settings. I will recommend this camera for its price point and simplicity of the auto features. There are only a few things that would make it a better camera. Mostly that it only records in 30 minute intervals before it turns off(not a real big issue if you keep track of your time). Hopefully this helps you out.
I love this camera. My favorite settings: P (program) where you just set exposure (EV) which is the amount of light let into the sensor. The camera has many Scene modes like Vivid (my favorite), Dreamy, Sepia, Vingnetting, etc. and preset modes on the top dial such as sunset, fireworks, multi exposure (blends photos together),sport (action), night portrait, landscape, etc. Lots of choices and excellent results.
You did not mention is that a S/D card is NOT included. I dont know why it was shipped without the card, but the directions states that an S/D card has to be used. Needless to say when I got the camera home and discovered that I would have to go back to Walmart to get the card, I was very annoyed!
😰😰😰😰😰😰this is the worst review I'VE EVER SEEN ON UA-cam, instead of zooming an object far away so we can understand how good the product is, you zoomed right in front of you🤔🤔so sad.
Love your review AND that you took the time to share your first photos!!! Great zoom as you mentioned. We hope you’re enjoying your AZ528!!!!
I know I'm sure enjoying mine. Nice camera for the price and my wild life photos are amazing.
im unable to find where to buy the az528
I have the same camera and I absolutely love it 💯🖤
@@Triscuit08 Walmart or you can order it online

Pete Martinez I’m not sure if it would be compatible or not, I’m having to much fun with the zoom it has! Lol
Hiking Pennsylvania thanks for the feedback! Really looking forward to make use of mine!
I looked at zoom lenses and yes they do sell them :)
@@HikingPennsylvania my name is Tony Smith I am your number one fans
Is this camera any good?
We need a tutorial:) seriously we do..how do you use it we didnt get a thing with this used az501
Unfortunately, I traded up for a Canon M50 at the end of last year.
But you can teach us how to use the old kodak:) then bring us outside and teach us more tricks and techniques :) c'mon c'mon you can do it! Make some short videos as well with things you remember to show us as we go. Huh? I sound bossy?Have a nice day....I SAID HAVE A NICE DAY!

Did you have to charge before use? Mine won’t turn on, but when I plug it into the wall to charge it says it’s at 100% battery life
am in the same boat, so i emailed kodak customer service. we'll see what they say. no offense at all, but i am glad that it is not just me/mine...

Awesome review man. I love the camera. Can you tell me something..can you actually charge the battery while it's in the camera?
What sd card did you get
Do you think is camera is a better camera then the kodak AZ401 im thinking the only difference is the zoom cuz its 42
Would u recommend this as a camera to do photo shoots with? I plan on getting it soon just wanted to make sure because I’ll be doing a lot of holiday shoots on there
For sure! The camera quality is great. The video isn’t the greatest, so I have since upgraded to the Canon M50.
Hiking Pennsylvania thanks a lot man! Definitely subscribing ! Never seen someone respond so fast to their comments keep it up man you gotta good heart
Thank you my friend! I hope you enjoy the content!
How long does the battery last? Does it warn you when it is getting low? How many photos does the card hold?
Do you think this is great camera to take pics/video at a comcert?
That's what I just bought mine for, a concert. I left my Canon Powershot at home which has great audio but I've heard through another review that the Kodak's AZ528 audio is not that great. What do you or anyone else think of the audio on this camera relating specifically for live concerts?
@@devildozer itll work. its decent but you cant connect another mic unfortunately
What size "GB" micro SD card does it take? My 128gb wont format in it. How small do I have to go to get it to work?
It can be no bigger than 32gb and i recommend using a full sized card as opposed to a micro SD with adapter at it may shift and not save properly.
Also be sure you buy a standard SD or SDHC memory card. No SDXH, Ultra or Extreme cards as they are usually more expensive and aren’t guaranteed to be compatible.
@@kodakpixpro thanks
I have this camera and I love it!!
how long did you have to charge your camera? I charged mine for hours and it still has the little orange light turned on.
I found I needed to get a new battery and a different charging dock for them, the battery it came with died after 2 charges
see above comment to Dorothy Cooper...
Is it good for UA-cam videos??
How can I remove the date and time from showing up??
Press the button that says “Disp.”
hey, quick question! does this have like a little hole for a mic?
I didn’t find one on my initial search, and never looked to hard for one as I use it for stills more than anything.
@@HikingPennsylvania no I'm saying does the camera have a joke so I can plug in my mic haha
@@JohnnyFlores. No it does not (the on board mic works well...but picks up a lot of wind noise.
Dude please go check out the az901 from Kodak 90x zoom
I lost his charger....
Can I charge this cemra with Mobile Phone Charger...?
Its a good camera. Awesome for the price
Is the video in 30 or 60 fps?
one i have goes up to 80 fps

Would you say this camera would be descent for milky way pics?
I just bought this camera and the sd card says not formated or card errror
Brookeee you have to use a 32g or less card and it must be a regular big card not an adapter. I have a SanDisk 32g ImageMate.
Thanks so much!!!! Had same prob. I was sad but now I know!! 128 gb card bad, going back to wallyworld 4 a 32gb!!
Can you live stream with this camera?
Johnisutt I’ve never tried, I use mine solely for still shots. If it has the appropriate output for your setup I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.
@@HikingPennsylvania alright, thank you for the quick response!
