Kodak digital cameras

Posted under Digital Cameras by Ayah Mat on Sunday 11 October 2009 at 2:47 am

Kodak digital cameras are produced by a multinational American cooperation known as Eastman Kodak Company. The first recorded digital camera was invented in 1975 by Steven Sasson, who was an electrical engineer at Eastman Kodak Company, at that time.

The camera produced was not intended for production, but was for a technical exercise. It weighed eight pounds, recorded its pictures in black and white to a cassette tape and it had a resolution of about 0.01 megapixels. Its first image was captured in December 1975, taking twenty three minutes to capture it.

The beginning of a long line of professional Kodak digital cameras was in 1991 when Kodak brought the Kodak DCS-100 to the market. In part, these digital cameras were based on film bodies ? often Nikons and used a 1.3 megapixel sensor. These Kodak digital cameras were priced at about $13,000.

Kodak introduced an improved version of its previous Kodak digital camera system ? the Kodak Professional DCS 200 camera, which has electronics and recording capability; and the camera was one handheld unit.

These cameras were first bought by photojournalists.

In 1994, the Apple QuickTake 100 camera was designed as a Kodak digital camera and supplied by the Kodak Company to Apple computer- this was the world?s first consumer priced digital camera.

Soon after, in 1995, DC40 Kodak digital cameras were introduced as the first consumer priced model by Kodak cooperation.

Then, in 1996, Kodak digital cameras that use compact flash were introduced in the product line ? Kodak DC-25.

In 1997, the world?s first consumer megapixel digital camera which was a Kodak digital camera- the DC210 was introduced- priced under $1000.

After the formation of the first JPEG and MPEG standards in 1998, the move to digital formats was much easier. These standards allowed images and video files to be compressed which are easier for storage.

Then Kodak launched its first 3 mega pixel consumer Kodak digital cameras- the DC4800 zoom digital camera. With manual and automatic settings for maximum creative control and flexibility, the critically acclaimed point-and-shoot camera was designed.

Another brand of Kodak digital cameras was introduced in 2001. This is the Kodak Easy Share photography system of digital cameras, printer docks, accessories, snapshot printers, camera docks, and online print services. Some of the Kodak digital cameras in this Easy share system called Kodak easy share one, uses wireless connection technology (Bluetooth or Wi-Fi) to connect from the digital camera to the computer.

With such innovative and high quality products, it is no wonder that Kodak digital cameras ? even to the present day holds a top market place in the world of digital cameras.
