ROCHESTER, N.Y., Aug. 30 -- Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE:EK) today unveiled a suite of new products aimed at helping consumers bring photos back into their homes and into their lives by expanding the possibilities for image capture and display. Millions of digital pictures are captured every year, but most remain trapped in digital cameras or on home computers. At the same time, the widespread adoption of High Definition (HD) televisions presents a new opportunity to relive personal photos and videos with incredible image clarity and sharpness, while growing demand for digital picture frames allows for instant digital photo sharing anywhere in the home. Kodak is delivering an easy solution for consumers to capture and display HD pictures on vibrant, wide-screen HDTVs and digital picture frames, making the viewing and sharing of images in the home more seamless and enjoyable than ever before.

Harnessing the latest digital technology in an easy-to-use solution, Kodak has developed three new digital cameras with HD still and video capabilities, the KODAK EASYSHARE V1233, V1253 and Z812 IS models; the intuitive KODAK EASYSHARE HDTV dock for displaying HD images on a High Definition (HD) television; and the KODAK EASYSHARE SV1011 digital picture frame.

“At Kodak, we believe consumers should be inspired, not intimidated, by the photography experience – from capturing to sharing and displaying. We are breaking down the technology barriers and making it easy for everyone to relive their memories in the highest quality possible,” said John Blake, General Manager KODAK Digital Capture and Devices, Vice President Eastman Kodak Company. “The products announced today represent an important step in helping remove the boundaries for how images can be taken, viewed and shared, and Kodak is dedicated to supporting innovation that will continue to bring intelligent, easy-to-use HD solutions to the market.”
