Q. I've been thinking about buying a Kodak PlaySport camcorder, and was pretty excited about it, but my sister has volunteered to send me a Sony camera that is a few years old and also shoots video. She says I won't need a camcorder at all, but I'm still skeptical. Can anyone give me some advice?
A. Yes, your sister's camera can likely shoot video. Most digital still cameras have a feature to shoot video.
I have a digital still camera from about 10 years ago that can shoot video clips (but limited to 30-second long clips by its built-in memory, because it wasn't able to transfer data directly to an SD card fast enough for video without dropping frames, so they designed it that way -- today's cameras and SD cards don't have this limitation).
There are shooters using new models of DSLRs to make beautiful HD video. But if your sister's camera is a few years old, it may shoot only SD video, even though it can take nice high resolution still photos. Still cameras are designed to be good still cameras first, even if they can also shoot video.
I would get the PlaySport. It shoots HD video, and is rugged and water-resistant.

What is the longest lasting battery i can get for my camcorder?
Q. It's the Kodak playsport Zx3. I've seen many different batteries for it, but don't know which one provides the longest use. I need help from an expert. Please be descriptive, I want to know exactly the details that make it the best. This camcorder takes great quality videos, it just barely lasts any time, less than an hour. More like half an hour, even though some say it is standard for the battery to last about an hour. I really am looking for a big change.
A. there is only one correct battery for a Playsport Zx3 and that is the KLIC7004. my experience is the Kodak brand battery works best, i have tried internet generic replacements and tossed them out. you should be able to get the Kodak battery at Walmart or photo stores.
