Digital Blue Video Camera

I love my Kodak PIXPRO FZ55 Digital Camera (Blue)!!!! I give it a 5 star rating!!!!! I love the color of Blue!!!! I just have to learn how to use it. The only thing that I did not like was IT DID NOT HAVE AN OWNER'S MANUAL with it!!! Why do you not include a Owner's Manual????? How are you to learn about the camera & how to use it if there is no manual????? Otherwise I love it!!!! Include an owner's manual with each camera so customers can learn how to operate their new cameras!!!!!

Excellent packaging and fast shipment of the product. The product will be used with digital video camera.

This Tripod I was looking forward to buying, it strongly supports my video camera and digital camera combined. ;)

The best convenience and cheaper solution for record video from your digital camera

I was looking for a turret camera for my new place but wasn't sure on distances and angles as I had not moved in yet. I was also concerned about lighting as it would be very bright in the first half of the day and dim during the second half of the day. I installed the camera (I had to look up a video to figure everything out to get it apart and then installed). My only issue with the camera is that when WDR is turned on, the image starts to have additional artifacts / graininess added to the video. This is somewhat understandable since the image is being processed. Turning off WDR make this go away. Due to the high resolution of the camera, when I am viewing multiple cameras in blue iris, this camera appears a little blocker than lower resolution cameras. Lowering the resolution closer to 1080p resolves the issue if needed. I left it at 3200 1800 which gives me 30 fps at 60hz while still giving me hq video. If I select to view only that camera feed, the video resolves fine. I suspect this might be a limitation with the blue iris software. IR works great and different IR cameras kick in depending on the zoom level. I also have an exterior mic attached to the camera which is working great.

Overall, I LOVE the Lumix S1. I use it mostly for it's 10bit 4k video ability. The 4k resolution and detail is spectacular. It's 10bit color in HLG and VLog is great and it's VLog dynamic range is THE most I have EVER seen in any camera before. It's 150Mbp/s 4k long GOP CODEC is surprisingly tough. It encodes VERY well down into the shadows and allows you to aggressively stretch colors upward without seeing the noise floor and compression artifacts that you certainly would expect. Auto focus is not on Sony's A+ level but it's not terrible either. I would rate it's AF a solid B grade performer. Now for the one bad part - In VLog, the S1 and S1H suffer a severe defect in terms of blue LED lights. Actually, they are completely intolerant to any kind of blue lights in dark scenes. In fact, they will go berserk and clip the blue very, VERY badly. The blue clipping will swallow areas all around any blue LED light, completely ruining your shot. However, this does NOT happen in HLG at all. HLG is perfectly fine in the exact same scenes. I believe this can be fixed in firmware but until then, when using VLog, be EXTREMELY careful with any blue light in your shot. (i.e stage lighting or wedding receptions, etc..) If you see blue, switch to HLG....don't risck it! With that problem aside,...this is a PHENOMENAL camera in sooooo many ways. I'm very much in love with it! (I left Sony for this camera because of it's 10bit video)

My video conference calls using the camera’s mic were horrible. The Blue Snowball made a huge difference.

The case is being used for my SONY.. digital HD video camera recorder. It is big so that it will fix and room for digital camera, the ligths, etc... So far (4-5) producer, would like to have one now.

I use it as a back up for my digital camera.

I've had 10 different digital cameras. I've done professional video and stills throughout my working life. My G9II (and Gh6) is the best camera I've ever used. The AF on the G9II for BIF and sports is extremely good. The video is a professional grade documentary or B roll cinema camera. Pair it with Panasonic PL grade lenses and it becomes a tool with which you can do your best work. The handheld hires is amazing.
