Kodak has announced its second dual lens camera.
The 6.1-Megapixel EasyShare V610 has the same sleek styling and dual lens system as the EasyShare V570, but this time uses two Schneider-Kreuznach C-Variogon all-glass prism zooms (and two CCDs) to cover a much wider 10x range (equivalent of 38- to 380mm).
The updated model also features a 2.8-inch LCD, Bluetooth wireless technology and sensitivity up to ISO 800.
The innovative EasyShare V610 camera, with anti-blur technology, can be carried where bigger, bulkier high-zoom digital cameras cannot - in a pocket while skiing, in a small purse during a day on the town, or on a wrist while hiking. The result is the ability to get extremely close, high quality pictures of distant subjects without the obtrusiveness of a larger camera.
In addition, the EasyShare V610 model is one of the first digital cameras to incorporate Bluetooth wireless technology, making it easier to instantly share pictures with people nearby. EasyShare V610 camera owners can effortlessly send their pictures to other Bluetooth technology-enabled devices up to 30 feet away - mobile phones, PDAs, computers, Kodak Picture Kiosks, and even other EasyShare V610 cameras - as well as receive and view pictures on the 2.8-inch, high-resolution (230,000 pixels) LCD screen.
In addition to its dual lens design and wireless capabilities, the camera includes multiple advanced features to enhance the photography experience, including Kodaks Perfect Touch technology. At the touch of a button, this innovative feature - previously available on Kodak printers and kiosks, or via lab processing - creates better, brighter pictures by bringing out detail in shadows without affecting lighter areas. Its ideal for underexposed pictures caused by shooting beyond the flash range or in adverse lighting conditions.
Packing advanced video performance, the EasyShare V610 records TV-quality (VGA) video with 10x optical video zoom at 30fps, using advanced MPEG-4 compression for optimal quality and storage size.
Built-in, video-specific image stabilisation technology reduces on-screen shaking from unintentional hand and camera movement. Videos can be made into a 4-, 9- or 16-up video action print - a storyboard compiled from individual video frames - as well as single frame VGA stills.
Kodak also makes it easy to accessorise the new EasyShare V610 with a range of products that help show off your pictures. The popular Kodak EasyShare Printer Dock Plus Series 3 (£129), also enabled with Bluetooth technology, makes it one-touch simple to print real Kodak pictures at home in just 60 seconds - with or without a computer.
The EasyShare V610 zoom digital camera will be available in the UK in May for £349.
