Following is an excerpt from Kodaks press release on the CX7430
KODAK EASYSHARE CX7430 zoom digital camera
The EASYSHARE CX7430 camera (US$279.95 MSRP) combines fully automatic point-and-shoot convenience — including nine scene and color modes — with 4-megapixel resolution and the new KODAK Color Science image processing chip, resulting in vibrant prints up to 20 x 30 inches. Taking advantage of the KODAK RETINAR aspheric, all-glass 3X optical zoom lens, plus selectable exposure metering, ISO equivalents, and focus zones, camera owners can capture breathtaking pictures under multiple lighting conditions.
For capturing more than just still pictures, the CX7430 camera also features TV-quality (VGA) video capture and playback capability, an on-camera speaker, and an 80-minute capacity (dependent on available memory; additional memory can be added via the SD card/ MultiMediaCard expansion slot). Automatic picture rotation makes pictures taken vertically appear right side up on the camera, computer screen or television. In addition, the camera is always ready to snap a picture by simply depressing the shutter button, regardless of which capture mode or menu is active — a feature unique to EASYSHARE cameras.
The KODAK EASYSHARE CX7430 zoom digital camera will be available worldwide beginning in March 2004.
