- General
- Brand: Kodak
- Model Number: FZ55-BK
- Product Name: KODAK PIXPRO FZ55-BK (Black)
- Color: Black
- Digital Camera Type: Point and Shoot Cameras
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: 1/2.3" (6.17 x 4.55mm)
- Total Pixels: 16.76 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- Image Resolution (Display): 230k (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
- Zoom Capability: true (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
- Digital Zoom: 6.2x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- Optical Zoom: 5.1x (The optical zoom uses a combination of lenses that magnify the image prior to it being registered at high resolution by the imaging sensor.)
- In-Camera Image Stabilization: true (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. In-camera stabilization means the image sensor itself moves to counteract detected motion.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
- Image File Format(s): Exif 2.3, JPEG, MOV, Linear PCM, JPEG (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
- Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
- Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): false (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
- Number of Autofocus Points (Up To): 9
- Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: 1/2000 ~ 30 Seconds (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Brightness Control: true (Allows the camera to adjust the brightness of a captured image for optimal exposure.)
- Self Timer: true
- Self-Timer Delay: 2 seconds, 10 seconds
- Shooting Modes: Auto Mode, Program AE, Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority, Manual Mode, Face Beautifier, Panorama Mode, Scene Mode, Movie Mode, Custom Settings (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
- Panorama Mode: true
- Scene Modes: ASCN, Landscape, Sport, Beach, Sunset, Fireworks, Snow, Children, Portrait, Night Portrait, Night Landscape, Party, Pet (Exposure modes with predetermined optimal settings for capturing specific scenes. Examples include Landcape, Portrait, and Sports modes.)
- White Balance Modes: Auto (AWB), Daylight, Cloudy, Fluorescent, Fluorescent CWF, Incandescent, Manual, Color Temperature Setting (1900K ~10000K) (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
- Effective Pixels: 16.76 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
- Lens
- In-Lens Image Stabilization: true (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. Lens stabilization means an element within the lens moves automatically to counteract detected motion.)
- Flash
- Flash Modes: Automatic, Red-eye reduction, Fill-in, Slow sync, Forced (The flash feature emits light to increase the brightness of a subject in dimly lit environments. Common modes include Auto and Red-Eye Reduction.)
- Guide Number: 7.5 (The greatest distance or range of distances at which light from the flash can illuminate a subject.)
- Integrated Flash: true
- Display
- Display Type: LCD
- Screen Size: 2.7 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Aspect Ratio: 4:3, 3:2, 16:9 (The measurement of the width of a screen compared to the height of a screen, expressed as a ratio.)
- Screen Resolution: 230k (Screens come in a range of resolutions (measured in pixels, horizontal x vertical). The higher the resolution, the greater the picture quality.)
- Touch Screen: false (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
- Varying Angle Screen: false (The camera's screen can be flipped out and adjusted to rotate, tilt, and/or swivel.)
- Video
- Standardized Video Resolution: Full HD (1080p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
- Video Resolution(s) and Frame Rate(s): Full HD (1080p) 30fps (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, and the frame rate used to capture the video. The higher the resolution the finer the video detail that can be seen. The faster the frame rate the smoother the playback for higher motion activities like sports.)
- Maximum Video Frame Rate: Up to 120 fps (The maximum frequency at which consecutive images can be captured by a video recording device.)

A great camera capturing memories
The KODAK PIXPRO FZ55-BK is a compact, budget-friendly camera that’s easy to carry and simple to use. It delivers good photo quality with vibrant colors, accurate exposure, and a convenient wide-angle lens that makes it versatile for everyday shooting. The camera’s battery life is also reliable, lasting through a solid amount of use on a single charge, which adds to its practicality. For beginners or anyone wanting a lightweight point-and-shoot without distractions, it’s a great choice. That said, the FZ55 does show its age in a few ways. The most noticeable drawback is its outdated micro-USB charging port, which feels behind the times compared to today’s USB-C standard. It also lacks modern features like wireless connectivity and image stabilization, and the slow lens can struggle in low-light situations. Still, if you value portability, simplicity, and solid everyday performance, this camera offers good value despite its limitations.

Great purchase
I absolutely love this camera. It’s so tiny and cute. Very easy to use. Easy to carry around anywhere, it can literally fit in your pocket. Great purchase for the price! It takes really cute pictures. Worth the price. It also has a built in flash so it works great for inside/outside/night time pictures! Easy to play around with the settings and change the lighting.

Love its compact size
I'm still learning the settings, but I've been using it every day since i got it. It's very compact but has a lot of options. I keep it in my purse and take it everywhere. I love having it that way so i can use it whenever i want to take random, candid pictures. I bought an SD card for it, and here and there I'll load it into my computer to see the photos on a larger scale and they've been coming out nice!! I specifically love the wide angle, but you can zoom in for a closer view. It seems great for photographing interiors with its wide angle. My only complaint is the buttons feel a little cheap, but i mean, it's a small camera so it doesn't really bother me. Overall i love its size and having it with me.
