Press Release

The KODAK EASYSHARE V610 dual lens digital camera is the world’s smallest 10X optical zoom camera at less than an inch thick. (38 – 380 mm equiv.) Using precision-crafted KODAK RETINA Dual Lens technology, the sleek, pocket-size V610 camera combines two SCHNEIDER-KREUZNACH C-VARIOGON all-glass, non-protruding prism lenses to deliver such a long zoom range – a first for a camera so small (just 4.4 x 2.2 x 0.9 inches). The innovative 6-megapixel EASYSHARE V610 camera is able to capture extremely close, high quality pictures of distant subjects without the obtrusiveness of a larger camera due to anti-blur technology.

The EASYSHARE V610 model is one of the first digital cameras to incorporate BLUETOOTH wireless technology, making it simpler to instantly share pictures with people nearby. Pictures can be sent to any BLUETOOTH technology-enabled device up to 30 feet away – as well as be received on the camera’s high resolution 2.8-inch LCD screen (230,000 pixels). The KODAK EASYSHARE V610 zoom digital camera will be available worldwide in May and will have an MSRP of US$449 in the U.S.

Also introduced today is the next generation of the award-winning EASYSHARE-ONE, the world’s first Wi-Fi consumer digital camera, and the only camera in the world from which people can e-mail pictures. The new KODAK EASYSHARE-ONE 6 MP digital camera combines the power of taking, sharing, organizing, and printing pictures into a single, highly innovative product. Its new WISPr (Wireless Internet Service Provider recommendation) protocol increases the number of hot spot locations to connect anytime, anywhere, wirelessly. The EASYSHARE-ONE 6 MP camera will be available in the U.S. beginning this summer for US$299 (MSRP). The Wi-Fi card is an optional accessory US$99.
