Kodak PIXPRO FZ45 Review: a simple point-and-shoot that does the basics and not much more

★★★★★ ★★★★★

After using the Kodak PIXPRO FZ45 bundle for everyday stuff and a short trip, my take is simple: it’s a basic, no‑nonsense point‑and‑shoot that suits beginners, kids, and people who hate fiddly tech.

Kodak Pixpro WPZ2 Review: a cheap rugged camera for the pool and beach, with a few catches

★★★★★ ★★★★★

The Kodak Pixpro WPZ2 is basically a rough‑and‑ready pool and beach camera. It’s light, bright‑colored, simple to use, and you don’t panic if it gets dropped or soaked. In bright outdoor light, photos are decent, and the 720p video is fine for quick memories. The fact that the pack includes two batt...

★★★★★ ★★★★★

After using the Canon PowerShot SX200 IS (renewed) for a couple of weeks, my conclusion is simple: it’s a budget compact with strong zoom that still works fine for casual daylight shooting, but it’s clearly from another era.

In good daylight, it takes perfectly decent photos with pleasant colour and enough detail for social media, al...

★★★★★ ★★★★★

After using the KODAK Pixpro AZ422 for a couple of weeks, my feeling is pretty simple: it’s a decent budget bridge camera with a long zoom, but it feels dated and has clear limits.

★★★★★ ★★★★★

After using the renewed Canon IXUS 190 for a bit, my opinion is pretty straightforward: it’s a small, no-fuss camera that does the basics fine in good light and doesn’t cost much, but it’s clearly showing its age.
