Hi, Chris. The MP4 download is at 29.97fps, not 60fps according to QuickTime’s Inspector window.

I loved this camera and wanted to keep it but the zoom was jerky. I called Kodak and was assured that the camera has a smooth zoom, but when I returned mine to Best Buy as defective and exchanged it for another, we tested it before I left and the zoom was jerky on that one too as well as there demonstration model.
Please tell me that some place they have one that is not jerky because I really want that camera.

Hi Chris – I’m sold, just waiting for it to arrive in the UK.

How is the central joystick/button/directional pad to use ?

Hey Chris,
This seems like the premier pocket HD recorder.

Question though….were you using an external microphone for the video or were you using the internal one?

Excellent.

Here’s my video with a test of three mics:

There seems to be a lot of complaints about the audio on the Zi8

Chris, you said you were going to include an mp4 link, but I don’t (yet) see a link.
