Kodak PlayFull ZE2
By Brian Jones
As a lightweight, portable video recorder that you can take to the beach or water park, the Kodak PlayFull ZE2 doesn’t disappoint. Now you don’t have to worry about dropping the camera or getting it wet; it withstands drops from 5 feet and is waterproof up to 10 feet. As a camcorder, it records up to 10 hours of HD video in 720p—sharp enough to watch on your TV. We liked the dedicated Share button that makes uploading videos to Facebook or Twitter fast and easy. While the 1 MP camera doesn’t have all the snazzy features or high quality of more expensive models, it still lets you take photos in a couple cool image modes like high saturation and ‘70s film. For the price of $69, you get a lot of bang for your buck.
