Kodak’s New Four Megapixel Digicam Offers 10X Optical Zoom and SLR features
Toronto, ON, October, 2003 – Kodak has launched a new 4.0 Megapixel (MP) digital camera
that sports numerous SLR features, including a 10X Optical zoom lens.
The Kodak EasyShare DX6490 zoom digital camera features a Schneider-Kreuznach
Variogon 10X optical zoom lens (38-380 mm equivalent), a new KODAK Color Science
imaging processing chip for rich, accurate colors and multiple shooting modes for ultimate
creative control.
The focal length of the professional Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon 10X optical zoom
lens gives advanced amateur photographers superb framing capability and the long lens also
provides the “flattened” perspective and narrow depth of field that portrait photographers crave.
Using the dual-speed zoom control, the lens can be driven from 1X to 10X in just two seconds,
with the lens barrel only extending one inch after powering up the camera – all lens movements
occur within the protective housing.
The Kodak EasyShare DX6490 camera also offers fully manual controls allowing
independent aperture, shutter speed, exposure compensation, ISO equivalency and other settings.
Aperture and shutter priority modes, as well as sport, portrait, night, landscape, macro and
automatic program modes are also featured. The camera is also equipped with an external flash
synch which is capable of synching at any shutter speed. With 16 MB of internal memory, and a
slot for an optional SD/MMC memory card, the DX6490 also offers a high-resolution TTL
electronic viewfinder (EVF) and 2.2 inch high-resolution indoor/outdoor LCD screen.
It comes bundled with a Kodak EasyShare camera dock 6000 that provides a full lithium-
ion battery charge in less than three hours as well as one-button digital picture transfer,
organization, editing, e-mailing and printing. The Kodak EasyShare DX6490 camera and dock
are available now in Canada for $749.95.
