Camera Overview — Kodak AZ522

The Kodak PIXPRO AZ522 is a point-and-shoot camera built around a 16MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor, offering a versatile feature set for everyday shooters and travelers alike. The camera houses an optical image stabilization (OIS) system to help reduce camera shake during handheld shooting — a meaningful inclusion for a camera in this class. For framing shots, users have the choice of a 3.0-inch LCD display with 460,000 dots of resolution or an electronic viewfinder, giving flexibility in bright outdoor conditions where screens can be hard to read.

Autofocus is handled by a contrast detection system. The ISO range runs from 100 to 3200, providing a reasonable spread of sensitivity options for various lighting conditions. Video capture is supported at 30fps.

Storage is handled via SD and SDHC cards, and the camera connects to a computer via USB. Connectivity is straightforward — there is no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, keeping the feature set simple and focused. The camera runs on a rechargeable lithium-ion battery and has a body footprint of 118.9 x 88.9 x 97.5 mm, weighing in at 530g.
