Testurteil: "3 out of 5 stars"
Test: Einzeltest: Kodak EasyShare Z915
Zitat: Pros: + Improved visual appeal
+ Sharp, colorful images
+ Better-than-expected noise control
+ Affordable
Cons: - AF is slow, unreliable
- Lens performance fails to impress
- Small, glareprone LCD
- Alkaline AAs won´t cut it for reliable power
Let´s be honest: regardless of how it performs, the Z915 will attract plenty of buyers. It´s a visually appealing camera with an attractive price that many discount retailers carry in their on-shelf inventories, which - performance and image quality considerations aside - will easily be enough to seal the deal on a fair number of purchases. But ubiquity and good looks do not a superior camera make, and in the case of the Z915, there are so many choices out there anymore in the compact ultrazoom space that Kodak´s offering doesn´t really do a lot to stand out from the pack. There´s no doubt that, in most respects and for most purposes, the Z915 is a perfectly capable camera. But considering some of the truly excellent ones against which it directly competes, the EasyShare also doesn´t prove itself to be a best buy - even factoring in its attractively low price - in this increasingly crowded field.
