September 6th, 2009 | by CameraBang |
Kodak EasyShare Z915 made his way to the camera world this year on March with a surprising feat for a compact camera, because this Kodak Z915 brings you a 10x Optical Zoom ability that was rarely found on a pocket camera. But that’s not the only thing that made Z915 special, this Kodak 10 megapixels long zoom camera priced only $200 while it have many wonderful features any everyday camera user would find. Let’s list this Kodak Z915 hot features here 
What you’ll notice easily when using this Z915 is that it has a fast shutter response, you don’t have to wait long to shoot when you just turned this Kodak Z915 on. The aperture settings in Kodak Z915 lets you choose between F3.5, F6.2 and F8.3 so that you can controls the object-background focuses and haziness. In the shutter speeds department, Easyshare Z915 can be as fast as 0,001 seconds or as slow as 16 seconds.
In the manual modes, Z915’s ISO levels, shutter speed and aperture can be adjusted, giving you more controls over the camera settings. There are also a few others mode like Smart Capture (environment optimized camera settings), Sports (work great for fast moving objects) and Panorama (stick up to three photos in one image). Kodak Z915 also provides 17 scene presets from portrait, various scenery and even Fireworks preset that will optimize your EasyShare Z915 camera to the scenery you’re on.
Kodak Easyshare Z915 is able to do a video recording too in Quicktime video format (640 x 480 video resolution with 30 fps). This video recording features also allows you to zoom in and out while you do the recording. However, the auto focus feature of Kodak Z915 will be pushed to the limit if you do this oftenly, you might ruin your videos too.
Kodak EasyShare Z915 ISO modes can range for 100 to 1600. And surprisingly, this Z915 camera can perform well (even it’s not the best) in low light photos. The Easyshare Z915 also gives a wonderful feature of exposure bracketing that allows you to take 3 rapid succession shots with different exposure values so that you can take the best photos you got with your Kodak Z915. And I would suggest you use a manual settings mode at high ISO levels like 800 and 1600 rather than using the High ISO scene mode to get a better shots.
With all that features, you would agree that this Kodak EasyShare Z915 camera is one valuable camera don’t you?
