Customers say
Customers find the digital camera easy to use for beginners with intuitive controls and appreciate its incredible 40x optical zoom lens, making it perfect for trips. The camera offers good value for money and has an impressive array of features, though some report it stops working after a month. Picture quality and functionality receive mixed reviews – while some say it takes great photos of subjects, others report blurry results, and while some say it works great, others mention it won’t turn on. The camera’s battery life is a concern as it drains quickly and doesn’t last long.

Amazing Camera
I’ve been using the KODAK PIXPRO AZ405 for a few weeks and it’s been a great camera for casual photography and vlogging. The 40X optical zoom is impressive and works well for capturing distant subjects. The image quality is good in daylight, and the wide-angle lens helps fit more into the frame. I also like the optical image stabilization — it helps keep shots steady.

Download the User Manual!
This was an Amazon Warehouse purchase. Condition shown as “Acceptable”, at nearly half the list price. I was skeptical but the Next Day Delivery and knowledge I could return it made me buy it. The camera is in Perfect condition, original box and all accessories included. I am delighted. However, the Quick Start guide provides very little help to a beginning user, but I scanned the QR code in the Guide to access the 91-page Owners Manual. I can either view it on my laptop (too small on the phone) or spend $$ to print it out.I haven’t taken but a couple of pictures so far as I want to know what I’m doing first. So far so good and I know I will enjoy getting to know this camera. I am not sure I would be so pleased were it not $88 (vs. $170) but consider me a satisfied customer. I am a retiree and I’m sure that is part of the issue with using this, as younger folks would intuitively know how to fly through the buttons and settings.The lens cap is dismally loose, as many reviews pointed out, but a few slivers of electrical tape around the inside of the cap creates a good snug fit. Picture quality is sharp and satisfying. Enjoy!!

Great camera for traveling
This is a great little camera for traveling. It does take great pictures, but it takes a long while for it to focus. If you are looking for a camera that just snaps and goes, I’m not sure I could recommend this. But if you are willing to stand for a few moments to get it adjusted correctly, it is great! It zooms in amazing and takes wonderful photos. We have another camera that is over $2000 and I cannot tell the difference in the quality, just size and weight. Just understand that it takes a little longer to focus. For the price and the size I would highly recommend this camera.

Great value and good functionality!
I love this camera! I purchased this to take pictures on my vacation. I do have an expensive DSLR, but did not want to carry around all of that gear. This Kodak is lightweight, easy to use and takes great pictures. The zoom is amazing! The battery life is good (I am using rechargeable). There is a lot of functionality to the camera is you want to experiment of take specialty pics. The color accuracy is superb! I did have an issue with the camera I received from Amazon, but I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me a new one fairly quickly.

DON’T BUY THIS CAMERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This camera is terrible in every aspect and design, to get the SD card out you have to open the battery compartment, which when doing so you loose all the settings as in date and time on the camera and you have to completely reset everything. If you use the cord to download the pictures to your computer instead of taking out the card it drains the batteries very quickly. Even when not using the cord to download, the batteries drain very quickly, it’s such an issue that it’s one of the trouble shooting things that they have listed with this camera. There solution is to shut off any apps or things on the camera you’re not using, tells you to turn down the brightness of the screen. Really your solution to this problem is to disable features that are on this camera, what’s the point of having those features if when using them they drain the batteries very quickly. Let me explain what I use this camera for, to take pictures of items I sell on line. I put in a new set of energizer batteries, tested them with my ohm/volt tester, they tested 1.58 volts. I took 17 pictures downloaded them by using the cord and then I took 10 more pictures and the camera shut off and right before it did it said batteries expired. So I took the batteries out and tested them and they tested 1.28 volts, which will make most things still run, like my game cameras. There’s definitely an issue with these cameras and the power they use and how fast they drain batteries. I’ve also have had it lock up and stop working several times and it wouldn’t shut off or do anything, had to open up the battery compartment which takes all the power from the camera so it will reset and then close it and then turn it back on. I had a Sony Cyber shot which they don’t make anymore, for over 10 years and I took literally thousands of pictures with it and it cost half as much and the pictures were clearer and of higher quality than what this camera is capable of taking. I would still be using the Sony, but some how it developed a gray spot that was showing up in all of my pictures and it was causing potential buyers to ask what that spot was on the item. So I had to stop using it and bought this camera thinking it would work great for what I was doing and also work great for taking pictures of nature and wildlife. I wish I would have sent it back right away, but I figured I would give it a chance to get better, because they said it would if I did the update. Well it’s only gotten worse with time instead of better.

great for beginners!
perfect camera for a beginner! i am very pleased with the quality of photos for the price of the camera. i highly recommend this camera for people looking for elevated quality of photos compared to the iphone camera. since i am a beginner user i was not aware that this camera did not come with much internal storage. you will need to purchase a sim card separately. this purchase did come with a USB cord to transfer photos to my computer. also, i was reading closely into the features of the camera within the description under the listing and found out that the camera does not have an ability to wirelessly transfer photos despite what the listing said. this camera also came with batteries so no need to purchase these separately at this time. overall, i am very pleased with the purchase and i recommend it to anyone looking for a cheaper but quality digital camera!

At CAD $280, it’s a good bridge camera. One thing that I like is that this camera doesn’t use a proprietary battery, I can just use 4xAA rechargeable batteries. 40x optical zoom with optical image stabilization. Excellent value for money! It’s better to buy separate camera like this this Kodak Pixpro and own it for the rest of your life than spend money on IPhone/Huawei/Samsung phone camera every 3-5 years.It’s a more green and SUSTAINABLE choice!I just wish it came with a case so I don’t have to buy a separate one.

The amber light kept on blinking. Not sure what sort of quality control it undergoes
