Kind of Camera

Photography Skillset

Keeping it simple - For someone who is not too bothered about technicalities, this Kodak device works!

For those who are passionate about photography at a casual level but are prepared to make the occasional technical adjustments, the PIXPRO AZ421 is a very straightforward option. At this skill level you'll be comfortable utilising features such as the 9 "Auto Focus points" that this camera comes with.

Video skill level

Simple clips - As a videography noob, this Kodak PIXPRO AZ421 video camera should be sufficient for your needs.

.

Video Scenarios

For those special occasions, this Kodak camera is a great companion as you traverse the floor. It comes with an Image Stabilizer which helps maintain a steady shot while recording.

Its always great to capture moments of delight at home or while spending time with family and friends on an outing. For this, the Kodak PIXPRO AZ421 is a great companion to have.

Self made video content - Whether its in a specialist niche or broad subject area, video content is king (or queen) these days. With an image sensor size of 6.17 x 4.55 mm (mm), this camera can deliver really good image quality in your videos. 

Photo Scenarios

As you go about your business each day, there are moments or situations that come up that you'll want to capture on camera. The Kodak PIXPRO AZ421 makes for a great partner for taking those everyday shots, whether planned or spontaneous. 

While taking those action shots during the day's event, you'll be aiming to keep your subject matter in sharp focus while they're in motion. The Auto Focus Tracking capability that comes with this camera helps with this.

As lots of sports happen at night or in-doors, the image sensor size plays an important role in image quality during low light conditions. In addition to its 6.17 x 4.55 mm(mm) sensor size, the Kodak PIXPRO AZ421, also comes with a Tracking Focus mode which is great for photos were the subject is constantly moving.

Taking photos while underwater is a lot of fun. You'll be able to bathe the subject of your photograph with the colours and hues only found when taking shots in an aquatic environment.

Sometimes while on sightseeing or on a tour, you can only observe things from a distance. Which is why the zoom capability on this camera comes in handy in that situation.

In scenarios where animals are darting about, the burst mode on this camera comes in handy as well as it's Tracking Focus capability. The combination of these features and the 6.17 x 4.55 mm (mm) Image Sensor on this camera, provides you with a device that suits your wildlife photography needs - whether tranquil or dramatic.

If you've got requirements to take photos of a variety of landscapes, then the presence of multiple scene modes on a camera is helpful in order to setup quickly and start shooting. This model from Kodak has got this capability making it a suitable option for your needs. In addition, this model has the ability to select what parts of your frame you would like to focus on before you take the shot.

Style

Whether you want to blend in, or have a camera that doesn’t attract unwanted attention, the basic design of the PIXPRO AZ421 fits the bill.
