Last Zi6 Test Video

[paulakaye5]

Yep - those are geese! And, this is a GREAT camera! (Too bad the 600 fps didn't work out - would have loved to have found something that could do that with the fairly cool ease that this one did!) Thanks for uploading it!

[tdcjonm]

the worst thing about watching this video was after watching it realizing it was uploaded at 480p.... its a 720p HD Camera... after compression and resizing of all the pixals its going to look shitty no matter how high your FPS is... re-upload it in its native resolution"1152x720p... thx

[xiaohang5588]

wow,see, that is cool ,cool guy with cool hobby, never see a guy like that ! great vid !

[dzpcc]

i like it

[HOTKIDproductions]

man this sucks compared to my flip

[SHAKEnBAKE550]

why doesnt your vids have the 720 option on youtube? my vids i shoot on my zi6 have the 720 option

[Rcrby525]

@SHAKEnBAKE550 he uploade it before youtube had the ability to host HD videos.

[Amaar]

this video helps me alot, now i will buy the Zi6

[meggiesmom]

The HD 60 was a little better, but not enough to justify the file size.

[AceKingProductions]

click 480 pixels it looks way better!

[cooleo505]

zi6 rocks!

[AePaRaAe]

I think I'm going to buy the Flip Ultra HD.

I love the internet. Comparisons are great.

[burtonkidd]

i think i have made my decision between the Zi6 & Zx1 ...

[ianberke]

the only way not to see a difference is a 60fps you can do a better slow mo also quality on youtube sucks it downgrades it a lot

[brettkling]

You know, it might not show a difference because I believe Youtube compresses the video therefore taking with it any noticeable differences.

[SkyHenry64]

Thanks a lot. I needed some confirmation on the quality before buying this. thanks again!

[Lewmazing]

HOW'D YOU GET IT SOO CLEAR?

the kodak zi6,

all of the tests ive seen

none of them came out this excellant

what did you do?

[dominoize]

Mine did. I have a few up on VGA and stuff is quite clear. LOVE this camera.

[cecimaquiagem]

I was undecided if i buy it or not... the quality is awesome!!!

thanks for recording this vid!!

:-3

[mreisma]

how long do the batteries last

[dominoize]

Get Energizer Lithium. They last 4 ever. I shot 8 hours (16gb chip on VGA) and the battery meter went down 1 point (out of 10).

[KeukaRyder]

Dude, whats that schmutz on your lower lip?

[itsmemorphious]

What's there to answer. It's schmutz haha.

[XYChromosome]

Potato.

[dirtbiker095]

im deciding on buying this or the flip mino regular and i want a good camera that goes on youtube in HQ not HD because my commputer lags with HD and i do drumming videos so is it good with fast motion ?

[kennyJRT]

The zi6 Destroyed the Flip cam!! Zi6 all the way!!!!

[TheAnimalDen]

@kennyJRT dose the Kodak zi6 have built in softwhere ?

[jakeandinky]

I had the zi6 but returned it. It was impossibly grainy and really bad in indoor and low light. I now have the mino hd and I just love it. It is significantly better than the zi6

[bbsombs]

thanks for taken videos with the zi6 iv been lookn at it for a while soooo whitch one do u like better?

[mcasual]

even at 30fps when you move the camera a lot, the image is not as blurry as on usual cameras, on minidv cameras one of the reasons for the blur is interlacing. i think i'll get a zi6 too :) the sond is fine

[Lucchesiv8]

with 60fps, you can see clearly the moving wather, is amazing, the zoom lag problem sucks, but its still great.

[MyPanamaCityProperty]

GREAT job man! Did you experience any of the dropped frames issue I have read about for this camera?

[opiapr]

Hi, I had the zi6 and was having does dropped frame issues. guess what is not a camera thing is a memory card issue. You need a fast card to avoid this a generic or low speed will drop frames. i got a SanDsik Extreme lll 20mbps and have zero dropped frames now. hope this help.

[vwestlife]

Hi, what program did you use to edit the videos, and what resolution did you convert it to for upload to YouTube?

[PianoPerson119]

the camera comes with editing software.

[coopersfilms]

no doucher - it's obviously not edited, other than clearly the fact that he's imported it into iMovie and created some titles.

[xxZR2xx]

hey Carlos- i am wanting a new camera. and want want to take pics as well has video. does the zi6 do both and does the flip minohd do pics. i really like both of them but i need one that also takes pictures. thanks

[GSlongboarding]

Yes it can be switched to picture mode and record mode.

[Lewmazing]

how many megapixx for picture mode??

[dropinskate]

if anyone uses the media impression editing thing someone please tell me if it has slow motian and how to get it

[ilovebrewers2]

I have it. but no i dont know how. the softwear sucks.

[nktechhelp101]

z16 owns, its widescreen, or on the other one you didn't record widescreen? nice vids btw!

[jshaw6000]

to be able to see a difference, you have to click 'watch in high quality' under the volume control next to the video player

[BenTHerLiG]

Hey Carlos.

I couldn't see a different in the vids.

Peace

[t0nyc0lin]

is this 720p or 1080i?

[Britney14061]

720p

[omjjimenez]

i like it nice

[Keleus]

60fps is really overkill since your eyes can only see 29fps

[MincedFeet]

really? its not hard to tell the difference between 30 and 60 fps

[Keleus]

you can tell the difference only because the higher the fps the harder it is to make out each frame , Your mind is thinking "Higher fps must mean its better" but in all actuallity its getting harder and harder for your eyes to see.

[gordotat]

im going to try the mino Hd, i hope the quality is nice like the kodak. i'm ready for some more accessories for it too!!

[thehellsyeah123]

very nice cant wait to see your vids on that:)

[Vi3tSony]

pretty good

[hahayouranoob]

Takes longer to load but its woth it

[DarbyRangers]

Hmm, Well I think 60 fps looked ever so slightly better, but could be my imagination because you panned slower.

Definitely showed a HUGE difference between 'watch in normal quality' or 'watch in high quality'

[hahayouranoob]

"yeah we didnt get the "watch in HD" option with this vid so what we are saying is just widescreen high quality. not HD"

[jdrocks134]

new Jersey is always gray lol

[mikerotty]

nice vid carlos

[kevinmauzey]

"yeah we didnt get the "watch in HD" option with this vid so what we are saying is just widescreen high quality. not HD"

You guys saying this looks good using the "Watch in HD" option with the bigger player?

[carpz14]

nice, i kinda like the HD 60 better, I dont know why :)

Keep it up .

[Matsw007]

I like 30 fps better.

[ThatSnazzyiPhoneGuy]

I like 30 fps better than 60 fps.

[bigwedge]

Looks good los, like the HD man

[GRPRIXGT97]

yo CARLOS luv the vids man..KEEP IT UP..im always checking to see if you have new vids on..YA im addicted to youtube..lol keep up the good work bud

[young7m]

lmao if it fell of the rail into the water you would of been in some serious trouble my friend !! lol greadt vid

[mr1379]

16:9 looks good!

[poetofsound]

Go ahead and shoot 30 fps. It's great for YouTube! Nice camera man!

[todd3293]

yeah we didnt get the "watch in HD" option with this vid so what we are saying is just widescreen high quality. not HD

[V1VAlaADAM]

i got the HD button

[scottryanbyczynski16]

canadian geese i would know

[musicfuse]

most video is shot at 30fps but movies are 24p fsp. did you try any camcorders with steady shot feature?

[CastilloSoCal2242]

30 is good...nice lake

[SolaceHerald]

30 seems better.

And I hate that those geese never leave Jersey!

[hitdogs2008]

carlos, i know its an hd camera but we arent gettin the hd option, and therfore we arent seeing it in full hd, u have to upload it in 720p hd

[readyforencore]

30 fps is enough, 60 fps files are just "awkward"? i guess?

[uncletone99]

Yeah, I think the 30 fps is fine. The 60 was a tiny bit laggy. Great vid quality both was ways, so I would go with the 30 fps.

[guiltyspark120]

right about it being jumpy at 60, stay with 30fps.

[sanders3260]

It looks great I say keep it on HD 30 fps I couldn't really see a difference between the 2 except for probably or upload speed.

[spearmintmonkey]

This looks GREAT !

[YF18132]

i think the mino looks the same

[WWEdgenx]

it does look like it jumps a little bit when its at 60. nice looking park though

[edhhd5]

looks great but wasnt loaded as hd carlos no worries

[kevinmauzey]

Reupload please. This is not in HD.

[Wingman813]

30 fps looks the best. 60 was jumpy. Looks really good though!

[daviduk2]

i couldnt see any difference at all...

[kona357]

I think when you move the cam or zoom thats when you get the lag at 60fps. So if you dont move the cam or zoom much (tripod) then it doent seem to have to much problems(lag) at 60 fps, but if you are going to move around with it and zoom often the go with 30fps. Thanks for the vid Carlos.

[appleboy1993]

water

[magicwaldo]

I think I'm diggin' the 30 fps. Although the 60fps might have looked a little sharper, while in 30 I didn't see as many jags when you started moving. I understand that there isn't any stabilization, but the shakiness wasn't as extreme in 30 fps.

I'm still trying to decide between this and the mino hd. Weighing the options on both, but I'm likely to chose this one.

Thanks for the video.

[tuckeroso35]

60 fps has a little lag and doesnt look any better so I'd go with 30 fps

[Louis0nFire]

Looks good but we can't see it in HD because the entire video isn't in HD. But it still looks better.

[castra73]

60 fps was better fo me anyway

[BallinCMD]

60fps is a lot better

[orcnutz]

that looks real sexy carlos

[iTouchiPodz]

nice carlos

[tawfiqmp]

This is great quality Carlos! The sound is also excellent. Thanks for the video!

[LilHermanIsBack]

are you walking a water haha

[iTouchiPhoneReviewer]

they both look the same o.o but its stil very clear

[Bigrick008]

keep it at 30fps

[redwingdog22]

Both ways are really good quality!

[chiraldo]

they all seem so good i can't tell a diff...

[zahrose]

still good quality

[Por2geezGuy]

this is sooo much better Carlos, the 60FPS was choppy for me but this is smooth and clear

[th4ton3guy]

this is clear because it was HD and your computer couldnt handle HD..

this is just high quality so its not choppy.

[th4ton3guy]

the editing messed up the file so youtube didnt make it HD..

[DJscooterTEAM]

he has the high end unibody macbook it can handle hd

[th4ton3guy]

i mean the settings he had it on didnt export right..

the file off the camera will be HD on youtube

but the edited one with the different settings messed it up thus making it only high quality.

[blizz042]

thats a some good quality !

[feltboardfavorites]

I couldnt tell the difference between 30 and 60, but the overall quality is great either way

[harrycorbett]

3o fps should be best dont wanna waste file space when it isnt really needed at 60 fps

[ChannelNotSeen]

On the 23rd or 24th my HD camera is coming in. Yay!

[Mi5t4k3]

I dont think youtube does it justice since i dont see a HQ video under your video, so i cant really tell, as for 30fps vs 60fps I see no difference either.

[paintborgfun]

canadian geese

[doubletapp22]

Hey Carlos the videos look great I could not see any lag while it was at the 60fps. I think that camera is a keeper.

[deanpinkas]

i say stay with your camera this one is very pixelated

[brassknuckles1993]

no snow!?!? b bristol ct is a white out lol

[mtpflyers]

Carlos,

I have been debating on getting this recorder.. but other people who have reviews out show the skipping at 60FPS. Yours looked freaking great... I think I may give this a try..

[nikeeweston]

the sound is amazing as i could hear the guy playing basketball

[nikeeweston]

no HD option weird youtube, but gr8 high quality

[DanArc]

nice quality

[colt459595]

[Snakeelixir]

[andreatunes]

The video quality is pretty good!

[SadisticEra]
