Kodak Zi6 HD Pocket Video Camera

The Kodak Zi6 HD Pocket Video Camera is a recreational-level HD-video capturing device that compares to the popular Flip camera. All the features that have endeared the Flip to the masses are reproduced in the Kodak Zi6.

Both share a minimalist design featuring a the lens on one side, and an LCD with a few buttons beneath on the other. No need to worry about misplacing the USB cable: like with The Flip, a USB plug is built into the side of the Zi6 and pops out at the push of a button. And, thanks to included HD and AV cables, the Zi6 can be connected straight to your television for convenient big screen playback.

Neither the Zi6 nor The Flip's video quality will make you the next Michael Bay, but with the Zi6's capability to record 720p at 60 fps, it's more than enough for social networking (which means that the myriad pustules of your pimply subjects will no longer be an indiscriminate red blush -- the days of pimples flatteringly disappearing are gone!).

Key contrast over The Flip

The Zi6 can store up to 32 GB of data with a memory card, which beats The Flip's built-in 1 GB of maximum data storage.

The Kodak Zi6 HD Pocket Video Camera also comes with:

• Two AA batteries and battery charger
• A camera case
• Wrist strap
• Video editing software
• User guide
