This test compares the new Kodak Zi8 and the Kodak Zi6. Same location, same view, same 720p capture. On the left you see the Zi8-view, on the right the Zi6-view.

iFranz and _Refugee_ were asked to do this test in English for better understanding internationally, but please be patient

Further details:
- Split screen view Kodak Zi8 and Zi6
- Fullscreen Kodak Zi6
- Sound Zi6 and Zi8 with external microphone
- 720p because of Zi6 limitation (the Zi8 does 1080p)
- Final Cut Pro without using Plug-Ins.


Filmed with Kodak Zi8.

  • very good review. it appears the zi8 has better clarity. I bought the zi8 and impressed, much better than my other pocketcam samsung-U10.

    I like the fact that both had good dark lighting, zi8 was just a tad brighter but could be because the resolution was cleaner.

    In regards to the other person's question, the zi8 in 1080p does not record in wide-angle but it does in 720p, and from this video it looks like zi6 does not record in wide angle 720 (but maybe it does in 30fps?).

  • Thank you very much for the great explanation.

  • the makro mode of the Zi8 is about 40 cm and on the Zi6 it is less than 10 cm - that makes the difference. Regarding the zoom, both have digital zoom, the Zi8 4x digital and the Zi6 2x digital!

  • I bought a zi8 today because of this and other video tests on you tube. I haven't got it yet but I hope it's everything it seems to be!

  • Let us know, what you think once you had a chance to test it. .

  • I think I'm going to get a Zi8 because of this video.

  • Thats great. Thank you and have fun with it!

  • Hey guys great video!

    I noticed you edited your video in Final cut pro.

    Just wondering what did you export your video at.

    This is because whatever I export my videos at, when I put them on youtube there very glitchy.

    Thanks
