The Kodak Easyshare LS753 Zoom is a sleek,
metallic, long rectangular shaped digital camera
with 5.0MP resolution and a 2.8x optical zoom
using a Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon Lens.
It's a point-and-shoot model with shutter speed
range of 1/2 to 1/1,400 sec., long time exposure
of up to 16 sec., a max. aperture of F3.0, and
15 scene modes to automate exposure settings in
different situations. Macro mode allows focusing
on objects as close as 5 cm (2 in.).
The LS753 has a 1.8 in. LCD with 134,000 pixels
resolution, a real image optical viewfinder, 32MB
of internal memory, and accepts SD/MMC memory
cards. It records MPEG-4 movies at 640x320 pixels
at 13fps with the movie length limited only by
the capacity of the external memory card.
The LS753 is compatible with the KODAK EASYSHARE
System. The one-touch Share button tags images
in the camera for immediate printing or emailing
when you dock it in the optional Printer Dock
6000.
The Kodak Easyshare LS753 will appeal to those
desiring an easy-to-use compact point-and-shoot
digital camera with great looks, a great lens,
and scene modes that make it all simple and user-friendly.
The LS743 has 4.0 effective megapixels resolution
