Key Advantages

The Kodak FZ152 offers an impressive 15x optical zoom, enabling versatile shooting from wide-angle to telephoto perspectives. Its 16-megapixel sensor ensures relatively high-resolution images suitable for printing and cropping. The camera's large 3.0-inch LCD screen facilitates easy framing and playback of photos and videos. Full HD 720p video recording capability allows for decent video capture alongside still images. The inclusion of image stabilization helps reduce blur, enhancing clarity especially at longer focal lengths. Its compact, lightweight design adds portability for on-the-go photography.

Limitations

The Kodak FZ152 uses a CCD sensor which generally consumes more power and may produce more noise in higher ISO settings compared to modern CMOS sensors. Video recording is limited to 720p resolution rather than full 1080p or higher seen in newer cameras. The camera lacks advanced manual controls, restricting experienced users in extensive photographic adjustment. The electronic viewfinder is absent, relying solely on the LCD screen which can be difficult to view in bright sunlight. The digital zoom use can significantly degrade image quality when extended beyond the optical zoom range. Battery life and proprietary battery requirements might limit extended shooting sessions.
