Kodak Easyshare

One of the beauties of shooting pictures digitally is the ease and versatility with which they can be shared. With film, prints or slides were typically the only solution. Sharing a picture with friends or family often meant having to pay for new prints or exposing existing ones to greasy fingers or other damaging elements. Digital pictures, on the other hand, can be printed, burned to CD, saved to disk, emailed, or posted online, entirely for free and without losing any quality.

As the leader in photography for over 100 years, Kodak understood the important impact digital technology could have on the way we share pictures. To that end, they developed their line of cameras to be optimized for such use. The result is the family of Kodak EasyShare cameras and the accompanying EasyShare photo software.

Through its experience, Kodak has learned that there should be as many different types of cameras as there are types of photographers. For those who are looking for a simpler, automatic point-and-shoot solution, the Kodak EasyShare CX-7430 offers quality results with little hassle. On the other hand, more discerning photographers, seeking greater control over their pictures will most likely sway towards a product such as the Kodak EasyShare DX-7590.

Beyond a line of digital cameras, what is Kodak EasyShare? At the root, it is a proprietary software system, developed by Kodak to help consumers print, sort, and of course, share their pictures. Bundled with their cameras or downloadable for free, it offers consumers a central hub through which they can process, organize, and manipulate all of the pictures they take with their Kodak EasyShare camera.
