listing out its pros and cons compared to average competitor cameras in its
class.
Kodak AZ255 weighs 336g and has external dimensions of 113.6
x 77.7 x 69.7 mm. Considering that the
average weight of DSLR-Like type cameras is 594g, Kodak AZ255 is a remarkably
light camera for its class. Even better, with a thickness of only 70mm, it is
also quite small, 33mm thinner than the average of its class.

capacity thanks to 24mm focal length on the wide end anWith a max aperture of
