With a nice-intentioned "idiot-proof" ...

... One could almost call them, the Kodak Play> Sports. The commissioning was self-explanatory and easily. At first I was surprised at the few buttons on the Cam, but then finally excited and when used at the extremes this simple operation is definitely an advantage.
You can load the camera either on the PC or with a plug adapter which is connected to the USB charging cable, the mains. This is very pleasant - well, because you do not need two different cable and both parts are included.

The screen is a bit small, but adequate. Thrilled, I was also, that the pictures can still recognize even in strong brightness. Here it is also possible to switch on a LCD Entspiegelungsfunktion. Also this works well.

One can - depending on requirements - choose between four resolutions or take pictures, so still images with the camera. The latter are fine, but it is to hold that it is> sport just yet more concerns at the Kodak Play a video camera and so people will not be satisfied with high image claims here.
The image stabilization while filming is really good, you get an idea of ​​the product already video, I also tested the camera times when cycling and am excited about the clear results.
The four available recording effects are nice gimmicks and allow creative conversions and new impressions.

Perfect Camera is of course if you want to upload their latest videos right on social networks like YouTube, going with three simple steps and, indeed, at the same time and starts automatically when connected to the computer. Uploading in an email I find handy pass that I personally use probably rather not so often on the Internet.

Particularly positive, I find that the camera is ready to shoot in seconds after switching on. How often it is not that you want to record something quickly and until the camera is so far, it then takes forever. This is really a true and great privilege!

One complaint I have unfortunately yet: The Control Pad is pretty hard to use, and you really have to be careful that the pressure grips. Perhaps the dust resistance and water resistance is due, but to use it is a bit uncomfortable.

All in all: a small and chic model with ease of use that can be easily and compactly to take (what, when shooting extreme situations indeed is extremely important) and really suitable for Extreme.
