When coupled with the Audio-Technica ATR-3350 (around $20) and a Kodak remote control ($10) this becomes a complete video recording studio that fits in your pocket. HD is the format that YouTube likes now, and the long cord on the mike lets you get high-quality audio to go with the HD video. This mike has an on-off switch and a tiny (common) battery.

The only downside I've found is that the battery cover squeaks when you squeeze the camera, and that gets into your recording. I narrowed down the problem area to a small tab the top of the cover and filed it down slightly with an emery board/fingernail file. Problem solved.

I had a leftover plastic overlay sheet meant for cellphones and cut it down to match the touchscreen. I found a pocket-size tripod for $5 and inexpensive spare batteries from another vendor. You can NOT change batteries during a recording session -- you'll have to stop the recording to change the battery. However, if you supply external power during the switch, you may be able to make one continuous recording for up to 8 hours in WVGA.

As always, get lots of practice with all the tools before you shoot something important. I'm quite delighted with this setup.

For the price this video camera is good. The video resolution is good. I have read lots of negative reviews about this video camera and this thing is way better than the reviews. Yes there are better video cameras out there...but for less than $100 on Amazon what you would be hard pressed to find anything out there that compares. Especially considering that there is an external microphone jack...which means if you want to record a concert or your a live performance you can hook up a condenser or dynamic microphone to this...which is a feature only found in high priced video cameras...$400 and up. I do hear a little hiss in the audio feed when recording with an external mic...but maybe I need to experiment with other mics...not sure yet. The touch screen in prelnty fast. I had to learn how to take good video with this baby. You want to move the camera slowly when taking video shots and you want to be standing still fro the most part. Since the image stability is not that great if you walk around while filming the video looks shakey...but if you are not walking around the video looks great. This was nice to have on our last vacation without having to lug around a big camcorder. This was much more convenient and did the job. The photos that we took also came out decent for a 5MP camera. Not as good as our 18MP SLR...but good. You have to make sure you get the right video memory card with fast minutes per second. I get at least an hour of video time between charges...and I think about four hours of video with the largest memory card...I think...

Also, the body is strong...does not feel like a cheap toy. The previous model zi8 was at least $200...so this is half the price. Some people say the video quality is not comparable to the previous model...but it is good enough and clear enough for what I use it for...actually is very clear...

OK, but a little attention would have made it GREAT

I purchased the Kodak PlayTouch for video blogging and shooting impromptu interviews and training videos. I had been considering a Flip MinoHD until they announced the company was to be shuttered. I was very happy to find a recognized name brand that had a similar sized handheld with Full 1080p HD (versus the MinoHD's 720p) and an external microphone jack (which the Flips didn't have). I got an exceptional price on it through Amazon.com. Unfortunately that's where most of the good news ends.

The first unit was returned because of sound recording quality. The only way I can describe it is if you're old enough to remember the reel-to-reel movie projectors they used in school - back in the analog days - that made the click-click-clicking noise when it played. It sounded just like that when played back on the unit, on the computer via the SDHC reader, or my HD LCD TV through the mini HDMI cable. I did call Kodak support (who were well, supportive) and they walked me through the troubleshooting steps. I had already updated the firmware (thanks to another review of the unit here on Amazon.com) and there wasn't much we could do other than return it. I must say that Amazon was superb in the return/replacement turnaround and I had my second unit the next day by 3pm.

The sound quality on the second unit is better (although I think the video output on first unit was better) and still not what I would consider good. That being said, if you use an external mic, which I did purchase along with a remote control, the sound is outstanding! The part I don't get is that it's marketed as shooting high definition video on the go and who wants to be tethered to your video camera with a 20ft microphone cord? My question to Kodak is, couldn't you have moved the internal mic farther from the internals so that it would pick up less sound from the camera than the subjects in the video? Literally, if I am in a quiet room chatting to the camera the camera noise is as about as loud as my voice - regardless of the mic gain setting.

The other drawback, and it's a biggie for me, is that the battery cover squeaks when you push the record button. Again, for an almost $200 retail piece, it's an unacceptable engineering oversight. (I did later find a fix for the cover squeak but I'm sure it voids the warranty) Add that to the fact the unit picks up the sound effect clicks when you zoom in or out. You can turn off sounds in the menu but they're on by default AND it turns off the front LED light that tells you you're recording. Couldn't the Sound and LED menu entries have been separated? They're both done in software so it's a (another) simple oversight.

If Kodak wants to compete in this niche it HAS to tighten these things up. If they're going to sell mobility in HD it better be HQ and HiFi - high quality and it better sound fantastic - You only get one shot at customer loyalty at this price point.
