GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Holidays, Casual Shooting & Fujifilm Colour Fans — QuickSnap Flash 400: Fujifilm's disposable camera favourite — cooler tones and fine grain give a different character to Kodak. The go-to for those who prefer Fuji's aesthetic.
Entry-Level Full-Frame & Dslr Switchers — Z5 (2020): The most affordable route into full-frame Z — dual card slots, IBIS, and a capable sensor at an accessible price.
Who should buy what
Z5 (2020)

- Enthusiasts who want full-frame image quality on a tighter budget
- Photographers stepping up from APS-C who don't need fast burst or 4K
