The P-880 is Kodak’s latest 8 mega-pixel prosumer digital camera. At a glance, the camera contains many professional features including RAW file capture, a wide 24-140mm (35mm equivalent) zoom, 50 ISO film base rating and shutter speeds up to 1/4000th of a second.
One of Kodak’s biggest selling points for the P-880 will be the large 2.5 inch LCD screen. The screen is clear, colour rich and offers a live histogram with highlight and shadow clipping for immediate on-camera exposure assessment.
The zoom lens is quite unique at 24-140mm. As most of the competition in the market place has opted for a base of 28mm, Kodak offering 24mm now puts the camera in a new class. Combined with a Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon lens and manual focus option the results the photographer can now capture are more creative and sharper than ever.

Kodak’s 7.1-megapixel EasyShare Z712 IS excels by combining an optically stabilized 12X zoom with a set of manual and automatic controls that are easy to operate. Snapshot photographers who want greater creative control will benefit from this compact EVF (electronic viewfinder) camera’s enhanced features without spending more than they would on a typical point-and-shooter, such as the Fuji FinePix F40fd or the Canon SD1000. But the EasyShare Z712 IS doesn’t have the performance muscle, feature set, or photo quality to satisfy serious amateur photographers.

The World’s Sharpest, Finest-Grained 400-Speed Black-and-White Film

Enabling Professional Photographers to Capture the Truth of the Moment

For decades, the world’s greatest photographers have trusted Kodak’s black-and-white films to help them achieve the best of their artistic visions. Today Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE:EK) enhances its black-and-white professional film portfolio with the introduction of an improved KODAK PROFESSIONAL T-MAX 400 Film.

The new film, utilising Kodak’s patented T-GRAIN emulsions, delivers finer grain and higher sharpness. T-MAX 400 now stands alone as the world’s sharpest and finest-grained 400-speed black-and-white film, offering photographers a level of clarity normally only available from a 100-speed film. T-GRAIN emulsions, first introduced 25 years ago, remain the gold standard in the photographic industry.

“The new T-MAX 400 film provides a grain structure that is superior to anything I’ve seen in a 400-speed film,” said noted photographer and master print maker John Sexton. “That, combined with Kodak’s legendary quality control and consistency, makes this film a most valuable tool.”

In a recent survey conducted by Kodak, professional photographers cited the benefits of black-and-white film. Although professional photographers acknowledge that digital cameras offer certain benefits, they said that film better captures certain images, particularly black-and-white photos. The majority (80 percent) of photographers produce black-and-white images and, to capture these, almost half (45 percent) prefer to use film. More than half of the photographers surveyed (55 percent) said they prefer the results that film capture provides over...

The 2.5-inch screen on the EasyShare Z1275 is about average for a point-and-shoot, and while it appears there was more room for Kodak to squeeze in a slightly larger LCD, it is adequate. Like many new digital point-and-shoot cameras, there is no optical viewfinder, so all shots must be lined up on the LCD. We’re not huge fans of this trend, but it doesn’t hamper our overall experience. It did a slightly below-average job of representing what the picture will look like on your computer. We expected better from such a chunky package.
