Kodak EasyShare LS753 Digital Camera [5MP, 3x Optical]

Optics and Resolution
The LS753 has a 5-megapixel resolution for 2569 x 1929 images and photo enlargements up to 20 x 30 inches. Other resolution modes include 4.4 MP (optimized ratio for 4 x 6 inches; 3:2 aspect ratio), 3.1 MP, and 1.6 MP (good for email). The Schneider-Kreuznach C-Variogon 2.8x optical zoom lens is also supplemented by a 3.6x digital zoom. Working with renowned German professional optics designer Schneider-Kreuznach, Kodak equipped the camera with an f/3.0 - 4.9 aspheric lens with a 6-16mm focal range (36-100mm, 35mm equivalent).

Movie Mode
The LS753 can capture both full-motion video (24 frames per second at 320 x 240 pixels, or QVGA) and TV-resolution video (VGA; 640 x 480 pixels at 13 fps) with capacity dependent on available memory (32 MB internal memory included; additional memory may be added via the SD/MMC expansion slot). You can also limit the length of your clips to 5, 10, or 30 seconds. With the 32 MB memory, you can shoot a 4-minute QVGA video.

More Features

Storage and Transfer
Images can be stored within the LS753's 32 MB internal memory, or on optional Secure Digital (SD) or MultiMedia (MMC) memory cards. It connects to Macs and Windows-based PCs via USB 2.0 connectivity.

Sharing
With a touch of the red-jeweled Share button, you can store up to 200 pictures in an on-camera digital album. These pictures can then be shared anytime on the camera's large, 1.8-inch, high-resolution (134,000 pixels) indoor/outdoor LCD screen. The Share button also allows selection of photos for printing and even e-mailing, with up to 32 e-mail addresses stored in the camera's memory.

Kodak Color Science Image Processing Chip
Kodak's Colour Science Image Processing Chip offers a new high-speed digital image processor, advanced algorithms, and hardware acceleration features that enable the LS753 make simultaneous, split-second decisions to produce rich, vibrant, true-to-life colours in almost any lighting situation. Each time you click the shutter, the Kodak Colour Science Chip performs an instantaneous and advanced analysis of collected scene data to identify and correct multiple factors that influence picture quality. Scene light source is detected and adjustments are made to capture bright whites and true, vivid colours under difficult lighting conditions--fluorescent, tungsten or daylight. Scene content is analyzed for luminance, focal distance, subject matter orientation and colour to determine the correct exposure and capture the natural details, accurate flesh tones, and rich colours you see in your composition.

Power and Size
The LS753 is powered by a proprietary rechargeable lithium-ion battery (1050 mAh), which can be charged via the included battery charger or an optional EasyShare Camera Dock. The KLIC-5001 battery can shoot approximately 350 images on one charge. The camera measures 4.3 x 1.9 x 1.2 inches and weighs 5.8 ounces.

Like all EasyShare cameras, the LS753 includes Kodak EasyShare software for Windows and Macintosh systems, providing effortless digital picture transfer, organization, basic editing, sharing and printing. The software's exclusive One Touch to Better Pictures feature--which takes advantage of proprietary colour technologies developed by Kodak--helps Windows OS users get vibrant, true-to-life prints from home inkjet printers, while significantly reducing the trial, error and waste usually associated with home photo.
