This one’s for the real point-and-shoot crowd who just want to take real photos without pulling out a phone. The Kodak Pixpro FZ45 is simple, compact, and easy to carry, but still gives you 16MP shots, 4x optical zoom, and a wide-angle lens for group photos or wider scenery. It’s a solid step up from grainy phone pics and way more fun to use than you’d expect. The 2.7-inch screen makes framing easy, and it runs on AA batteries, which feels weirdly comforting. It’s now 23% off, which makes it a great little grab for travel days, grandparents, or your inner 2011.
If your phone taps out the second you try to zoom past five feet, this one’s calling your name. The Kodak Pixpro AZ528 gives you 52x optical zoom, a 16MP sensor, and a wide-angle lens that’s surprisingly versatile for the price. You also get 1080p video recording, burst shooting up to 6 frames per second, built-in Wi-Fi for quick sharing, and a 3-inch LCD to preview your shots without squinting. It’s simple, useful, and way better than just cropping everything in post. It’s now down to $223, and def worth the investment.
