What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.5 for now.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Kodak PIXPRO AZ426

  • 150 focus points cover much of the frame.
  • Tracking autofocus keeps a moving subject sharp.
  • A 42 x optical zoom reaches distant subjects.
  • Bluetooth connects the camera to a phone.
  • A removable battery lets you carry a spare.
  • HDR mode helps with high-contrast scenes.

What customers don't like about Kodak PIXPRO AZ426

  • Battery life of 240 shots is short for a long day.
  • At 444 g and 84.4 mm thick, it is bulky in a jacket pocket.
  • Expanded ISO stays at 3200 ISO, so there is no extra sensitivity.
  • Only one microphone is built in for video sound.
  • There is no RAW capture, so edits have less to work with.

Verdict

Autofocus with 150 points is what sets the Kodak PIXPRO AZ426 apart. The points cover much more of the frame, so a subject that moves to one side is more likely to stay sharp. Tracking autofocus and a 42 x optical zoom make it a good match for wildlife, sport and a child's school play. Bluetooth connects the camera to a phone, and the battery can be swapped, which helps on a long day with lots of shooting. The trade-off is the battery itself: 240 shots is short, so a spare is worth having. At 444 g and 84.4 mm thick, it is heavy for a pocket. It suits a buyer who shoots fast action from a distance and cares more about focus than about a slim body.
