Kodak is introducing dual lenses on the Easyshare V570 so that users don’t have to choose between Zoom and (ultra) Wide-Angle. Depending on the situation, it will be possible to pick the lens that will do the best job. It’s a pretty neat concept that will probably alleviate these issues that consumers sometimes experience, without introducing expensive add-on lenses. The ultra-wide lens lets one make a 180 degrees panoramic vista in just 3 shots – not bad at all! Additionally, the Kodak EasyshareV750 is also capable of MPEG4 video with image stabilization. Look at the complete specifications in the Press Release.
Sanyo’s Xacti HD1 is the world’s first commercially available, smallest, and lightest high-definition (HD) compact digital camera. It will be launched at CES 2006. The Xacti HD1 sports a 5.1 megapixel resolution, a crisp 2.2” OLED display, HD video recording @ 720p, 10x optical zoom lens, weighs 8.3 ounces and measures 3.1? x 4.7? x 1.4?. It will be sold across the US in late March at a recommended retail price of $799.99. (
