Question: Does this work with Kodak Zi8 HD Video camera? If I am shooting and only person in the video, will it help me record easier?
Document: This remote control sure makes making some PR and training videos much easier. I highly recommend using it with the Kodak Zi8 pocket digital video camera.
As other reviewers report, this remote is not compatible with as many devices as Kodak website suggests. My camera is Playfull Ze1Kodak PlayFull HD Video Camera - BlueBlack. The only button that works on the remote is the center button, which controls the start/end of video shooting. And even this function only works when the camera is switched on, in ready-to-shoot mode. If the camera is in preview mode, nothing on the remote works.
I recently received theKodak PlaySport HD Waterproof Pocket Video Cameraand although I have yet to use it anywhere that the waterproof feature has been tested, it has been used in plenty of other situations.The main reason I decided to buy the remote control was for my daughters use. She is in High School and this year has been a year for video essays and other required video assignments. Previously I had been letting her borrow myCanon ZR830, but the Kodak Playsport is so much easier for that type of use.
Purchased this product with the impression that it would work with the Kodak Playtouch Zi10 HD Video Camera. The center button used for starting and stopping the recording process does work. All other buttons do not work with the Zi10. The remote must be in front of the camera to operate. Because this is my only choice of remote for this particular model, I am happy to have it so that I can start and stop the recording process without touching the camera.
This little remote is so helpful when you don't have another person to help with the camera. This remote is also great for family group shots. It has a nice size to it and an easy button layout. I would recommend this to anyone who owns a Kodak Playsport.
This remote is inexpensive, no I should say cheap.Although it is supposed to be a remote control for the Kodak PlaySmart ZX5 video camera, the only buttom that function is the start/stop record button. In order for it to work the remote should be in front of the camera.
It does work as advertised, even from behind the camera. We use it when recording from a tripod and haven't had any problem with it. If you have one of the Kodak pocket video cams that it works with and ever plan to record using a tripod, this is a no brainer.
First of all, this camera is &#34;AWESOME&#34;. The stills are okay, but the HD video and sound is excellent for such a small camera. I am sadend that Kodak is no longer in this business. As for the remote, I am disappointed that it is not water resistant, as is the camera (down 10 ft). I got this unit wet and it stopped working.
This is what the other small HD cameras don't have but should. If you are making a video you need to be able to put it on a stand and start recrding without having to walk over and push record, simple as that.
This remote works great for my little Kodak Playsport. It has better functionality and is easier to use than my Canon SLR remote and I paid $50 for that one!If you get a playsport or zi8, you must get a tripod and this remote if you plan to attempt taking any still shots. Otherwise, you will be very disappointed with the quality. Also great for reviewing videos and pictures on the TV.
Answer: Yep,I bought this for my zi8it works fine and does help when tour shooting alone(mainly when your trying to record yourself)
