Review: great camera - SUCH a great camera and defo worth the money if you’re looking for a digi cam on a low budget.
Review: Light to hold and easy to use. - I was looking for a lightweight camera to take on holiday rather than using my iphone, which I normally use. This is easy to use and the buttons work well and are not sticky. I like the ease of using batteries for ease when being abroad rather than trying to hunt down a spare plug in the room! Nice colour and it comes with a strap. The quality of the photos seems to be ok and the zoom function is helpful, although I will miss using the pinch function on my phone screen! Overall a good buy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you capture individual frames from video?**
A: You can do that from any camera in the pictures processing program on your computer after downloading

**Q: My Camera won’t turn on at all?**
A: Perhaps the batteries are in wrong or need to be replaced.

**Q: How do I fix lens obstruction… the lens won’t pop out.**
A: Send it back

**Q: Can it video record?  And how much time can you record?**
A: The KODAK PIXPRO FZ45 camera will take up to a 512GB standard SD card. This size card will give you massive memory with probably videos in the hundreds of hours. 

Specific hours cannot be answered because the resolution, actions, subjects in your videos will all have an affect on how much memory a video file will be comprised of. 

Rest assured if  you purchase the maximum size SD card (512GB) this should be ample media storage for your FZ45 and you'll more than likely have a hard time filling it up to capacity.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great camera
*by B***K on 28 June 2026*

SUCH a great camera and defo worth the money if you’re looking for a digi cam on a low budget.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light to hold and easy to use.
*by T***A on 21 August 2025*

I was looking for a lightweight camera to take on holiday rather than using my iphone, which I normally use. This is easy to use and the buttons work well and are not sticky. I like the ease of using batteries for ease when being abroad rather than trying to hunt down a spare plug in the room! Nice colour and it comes with a strap. The quality of the photos seems to be ok and the zoom function is helpful, although I will miss using the pinch function on my phone screen! Overall a good buy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, apart from battery life
*by R***D on 24 June 2026*

Personally I still prefer to take photos with a camera than a phone. I tend to find that I get better quality pics, probably due to the larger lens as much as anything. I'm fairly happy with this, and even turned right down to 3mp takes perfectly adequate photos for general snaps plus small file size, plenty of storage etc. I was keen to be able to use AA batteries but there is no doubt that ordinary alkaline batteries are useless and don't last five mins. I have taken four AA rechargeable batts, two in the camera and two in reserve which works much better.
