Kodak cranks up the easy
Amvona Blog 29 Jul, 2009 | by stephanieluz
Today, Kodak released yet another EasyShare camera because their 30 or so other models weren’t already enough. According to the Kodak website, they are “the #1 selling digital camera brand.” They had to be doing something right.
So I was looking through photography news of the day and there was nothing that interested me. Then I stumbled upon Kodak’s new 12-million-pixel Z950 ($279.95), M381 ($189.95), and M341 ($159.95) cameras and I was even less interested than when I started. So why should you be interested? They’re pretty decent cameras, or so I hear..
It doesn’t take a genius to snap a photo and upload it on your desktop but it doesn’t hurt to use equipment that makes it easier. Although, some of us still have trouble making a camera function — so much so, I probably would’ve been offered cheese if I hadn’t smiled so much.
I think that an easy-to-use, high-quality camera is a major plus for people like me. Even professional photographers don’t like to read instruction booklets. I’m personally a fan of trial-and-error.
