New Kodak Digital Cameras for Spring 2010
Kodak is to introduce four new digital cameras in their M range during Spring 2010. These cameras all fall into the easy to use category. Kodak are aiming these new models at people who like to share photos through social networking web sites such as Facebook and Flickr or by email. These cameras have been set up so that sharing in this way can be carried out by a single button press. In order to make these functions available Kodak has incorporated an in camera tagging system.
Another innovation allows you to transfer photos directly to a new photo frame introduced by Kodak. This is the Kodak Pulse Digital Frame.
