Editors' Comments

Another pocket camcorder for the YouTube crowd, Kodak's Zi6 has just the bare essentials. It's a step up from most of its competitors with a 720p high-definition capability. The Zi6 takes two AA batteries which may be your saving grace if you're filming outside; if you run out, just pop in two more batteries, and you're ready to go. However, the insufficient internal memory and is off-putting, but luckily, Kodak gives you the option of paying them more money to get a supplemental SDHC memory card.
