Key Advantages

The KODAK FZ45 stands out for its versatile 5x optical zoom lens that offers flexibility for various photographic needs. Its 12-megapixel sensor delivers clear and detailed images suitable for everyday usage. The inclusion of face detection autofocus improves image focus on human subjects effectively. The camera’s compact size and lightweight design make it highly portable for casual photography. It supports HD video recording which adds to its multimedia functionality. Equipped with common AA batteries, it offers convenience in power management without proprietary restrictions.

Limitations

Despite its features, the KODAK FZ45 has some limitations including limited low-light performance due to its modest ISO range and small sensor size. The 2.5-inch LCD, while functional, is relatively small compared to modern cameras, affecting ease of image review. Video recording is restricted to 720p HD without advanced video features found in newer models. The device lacks built-in image stabilization, which can result in blur at longer zooms or slower shutter speeds. Battery life when powered by AA cells may be shorter compared to lithium-ion alternatives. Additionally, the camera does not offer RAW image capture, limiting advanced post-processing capabilities.
