New KODAK EASYSHARE V603
- 6.1-Megapixel, Compact Digital Camera
Proves Big Things Come in Small, Sleek Packages
Kodak Continues to Fuse
Style and Quality with KODAK EASYSHARE V-Series
Zoom Digital Cameras
ROCHESTER, NY, Feb.17 - Building
upon the tremendous success of its award-winning
line of KODAK EASYSHARE V-series digital
cameras, Kodak debuts the V603 camera, a
compact camera that is the perfect mixture
of style, performance and simplicity that
can slide into almost any pocket.
The KODAK EASYSHARE V603 zoom digital camera
is designed for people who want a small,
stylish camera packed with innovative features
to enhance the photography experience. It
is the latest in the V-series line of cameras
which features exciting digital advancements
wrapped in sleek camera bodies while remaining
true to Kodak's signature ease-of-use.
The tiny, 6.1-megapixel V603 camera features
a SCHNEIDER-KREUZNACH C-VARIOGON 3X optical
zoom lens, a 2.5" high-resolution display,
in-camera picture enhancing features such
as KODAK PERFECT TOUCH technology and multiple
colour and scene modes including panorama
stitch.
"Kodak continues to merge innovation
with style in its V-series line of digital
cameras," said Greg Morrison, digital
product marketing manager, Kodak Canada
Inc. "The combination of high tech,
high style and high performance at an affordable
price is something that people have come
to expect from Kodak and the V603 camera
delivers."
The KODAK EASYSHARE V603 zoom digital camera
records TV-quality video, up to 30 frames
per second (fps) using advanced MPEG-4 compression
with the ability to split video with a simple
on-camera editing feature.
Built-in image stabilization technology
during video reduces on-screen shaking from
unintentional hand and camera movement.
The camera also offers zoom during video
including auto focus with its professional-caliber
3X SCHNEIDER-KREUZNACH C-VARIOGON optical
zoom lens. And it is simple to select any
frame in a video, then save and print from
video in just seconds. Then watch the videos
on the camera's big, bright 2.5-inch LCD
screen.
The KODAK EASYSHARE V603 zoom digital camera,
which comes in black or silver, will be
available in Canada beginning in May
2006 and will retail for CDN$349.95
(MSRP).
Making the EASYSHARE System Connection
The V-series cameras include KODAK EASYSHARE
software version 5.2 for WINDOWS and MACINTOSH
systems, providing effortless digital picture
organization, editing, sharing and printing.
The exclusive One Touch to Better Pictures
feature takes advantage of proprietary colour
technologies developed by Kodak to help
users get vibrant, true-to-life prints from
inkjet printers. Version 5.2, which is available
for free download from www.kodak.ca, also
makes sharing your favourite pictures as
simple as possible, automatically placing
them in albums on your camera, on your computer,
and in your online KODAK EASYSHARE Gallery
albums.
Kodak also makes it easy to accessorize
the new V603 camera with a range of products
that help show off your pictures. For instance,
the popular KODAK EASYSHARE Printer Dock
Plus Series 3 (CDN$229.95
MSRP) makes it one-touch simple
to print real KODAK pictures at home in
just 60 seconds - with or without a computer.
The Printer Dock Series 3 also transfers
pictures to a connected computer, and recharges
and reconditions the cameras' batteries.
Pictures made from EASYSHARE printer docks
are vibrant, borderless, waterproof, and
will last a lifetime, under typical photo
album display conditions.
The optional KODAK EASYSHARE Photo Frame
Dock 2 provides one-touch picture transfer
to a connected computer while keeping the
cameras' high-capacity battery charged and
ready to go - can play video and photo 'slideshows'
on the cameras' high-resolution LCD screens,
providing an additional degree of elevated
design and innovation to EASYSHARE V-Series
camera owners.
The KODAK EASYSHARE digital photography
system consists of cameras, snapshot printers,
services, docks, software, inkjet and thermal
photo papers, and accessories, making taking,
organizing, sharing, and printing high quality
digital pictures effortless. Further information
