Kodak Premiers EasyShare Z710 Zoom Digital Camera

Kodak has unveiled the latest addition to its line of consumer digital cameras, the Kodak EasyShare Z710 zoom digital camera. With 10X optical zoom, high picture quality, and a host of performance features, this new model bridges the gap between value and performance. Intuitive enough for beginners and sophisticated enough for digital photography enthusiasts, the Z710 camera provides point-and-shoot simplicity with advanced features to easily get professional-looking results. The Z710 camera will be available in September.

The secret behind the Z710 camera's image quality is the combination of the 7.1 megapixel image sensor and a professional quality Schneider Kreuznach Variogon 10X optical zoom lens, making it simple to zoom and capture crisp shots, as well as make high-quality prints up to 30 x 40 inches (76 x 102 cm). To that, add the exclusive KODAK Color Science imaging processing chip which helps to capture natural details, accurate skin tones, and breathtaking color, and say goodbye to the guesswork when it comes to snapping the perfect shot. The intelligent features of the Z710 camera make it easy for anyone to get more out of their digital photography experience. On-camera picture enhancing features such as cropping, a live histogram, and a capture grid line display allow for more creativity in each and every shot. Advanced settings and custom controls, including programme, aperture and shutter priority, and full manual mode provide ultimate photographic control in any situation. For the most effortless experience, users can get the right shot automatically by selecting from 19 pre-programmed scene and color modes.

Taking great pictures is only the beginning of the photographic experience; sharing those precious memories with others is the important next step. For that reason, the Z710 model and the entire EasyShare System are specifically designed to make sharing images just as fun and rewarding as capturing them. With a big, bright 2 inch indoor/outdoor color display, images can be shared anytime right from the back of the camera, and, by using the camera's Favorites feature, a collection of special images can be kept permanently on the camera for on-the-go viewing without taking up space on the memory card. The exclusive on-camera Share button gives users the power to easily print, e-mail, and organize pictures with just one touch. When printing images, Kodak provides exceptional quality prints that will last for generations. Using the line of KODAK EasyShare thermal snapshot printers, including the portable G600 Printer Dock, Z710 camera owners can easily print real KODAK 4 x 6-inch pictures at home, with just one touch, in as little as 60 seconds.
