camera is available in India from Kodak India and it comes with a free 2 GB as the HC card is from verbatim and it's not from Kodak surprisingly anyway so let's learn a little more about the camera first before we start unboxing it this is a very small portable camera it was brought out in the market to probably challenge the Flip HD or the creative Vado HD there are some plus features as compared to the Flip and there are some drawbacks as compared to the Flip we will start with basic specifications of this camera this camera shoots video at 1 0 8 0 P it also shoots video at 720p at 60 frames per second 720p at 30 frames per second SD video and also it takes still shots of 5 megapixel this does not have an inbuilt video light or a flash for images but it does use external storage like an SD card for storing video it does have 128 MB of storage capacity on it but that's probably useless if you're recording on 1 8 1 0 8 0 P it comes with a rechargeable removable and replaceable battery it's a standard battery made by Kodak is the same battery they use in most of their camcorders of this type so without further ado let's unbox the kodak zi8 so in the books we have the kodak zi8 we got the black color what else do we have we have a charger this charger is 110 volt to 220 volt and it also it's 50 Hertz and it gives an output of 5 point 2 volts so it's basically a USB you

this is for the tripod mount and this is a hole for the lanyard on the right-hand side we have the hole for the SDHC card and we also have the USB hand which I believe is pulled out like this so it
