Limitations

The Kodak Pixpro AZ 521 has limited manual control options compared to DSLRs or mirrorless cameras, restricting advanced user settings. Its image quality may suffer in very low light despite sensor improvements. The camera lacks a built-in viewfinder, relying solely on the LCD, which can be challenging in bright sunlight. Its autofocus system may not be as fast or accurate in tracking moving subjects. The reliance on AA batteries may also limit shooting time and add bulk.
