For their purposes wonderfully

Actually, it's only a matter of time until what the camera does, standard in every smart phone is: resolutions of 1080p, 720p / 60, 720p / 30 and WVGA leave (currently) actually nothing to be desired, but what probably in the near future no standard for phones will be, is the robust processing. The Zx5 Playsport makes its name and put it effortless way to becoming eingesaut falling down and also the underwater mode works beautifully (at least subject, I've only tested in the bathtub).

Blurred images, there can be when you're in motion. To use at a reasonably steady hand and without the zoom (see below), the image is absolutely stable. Always assuming one uses the camera as it is intended: go for short clips and quick shots. Indoor it falters a bit in terms of image quality and a long wedding video so I would not want to shoot.

The handling is simple, only the cursor keys (to use the zoom to) have a very strong pressure point. So if you're shooting with one hand (and for the camera's intended), you have a bit careful that you hold the camera steady. The zoom is however a joke anyway (5x digital), just like the camera (16: 9 format, 5MP). Can you cut the clips directly to the camera, which are then, however, cuts every second, so rather a rough machining. There are also various (standard) -Aufnahmemodi: sepia, black and white, high saturation, and '70s. The display is 5.1 cm maybe a bit small, but sufficient.

The Share button is more gimmick than real revolution. Or we it was complicated before, upload movies on Youtube? Funny it would be natural if you could upload directly from the camera's movies, then the button would essentially make more sense.

Conclusion: The "always-casual-camera". No bigger than an older mobile phone, ordinary rugged qualities - ideal for short clips, less suitable for longer movies.
