The Kodak Easyshare Z1485 offers plenty of pixels with 14 megapixels squeezed onto the sensor. As of spring 2009 you will struggle to find compact digital cameras offering more pixels than the Easyshare Z1485. 5x optical zoom is available. Kodak has also incorporated image stabilisation to help you avoid blur in photos caused by unsteady hands.
Other headline features include the ability to shoot high definition still shots and video clips. There is also a manual exposure mode that gives you control over shutter speed and aperture size. If you are looking for the camera to take more control then there is a smart capture feature. This mode analyses the scene you are photographing and optimises the settings accordingly.
Kodak has added a blurry picture alert to the Easyshare Z1485. There is also a red eye correction tool available. Both text and a short sound commentary can be added to your photos to help you preserve the memory of where you where when the shot was taken.
