 Kodak EasyShare V610 at PhotographyBLOG : DIWA member Mark Goldstein from PhotographyBLOG has reviewed the Kodak EasyShare V610 digital camera. Using innovative Kodak Retina Dual Lens technology, the sleek, pocket-size Kodak V610 camera precisely combines two Schneider-Kreuznach C-Variogon all-glass, non-protruding prism lenses to deliver such a long zoom range, a first for a camera so small. In addition to its dual lens design and wireless capabilities, the camera includes multiple advanced features to enhance the photography experience, including Kodak Perfect Touch Technology. Packing advanced video performance, the Kodak EasyShare V610 camera records TV-quality (VGA) video with 10X optical video zoom at 30 frames per second.

 Kodak V610 camera - Image quality
According to Mark Goldstein: "The Kodak Easyshare V610 camera dealt very well with chromatic aberrations, with limited purple fringing effects appearing only in high contrast situations. Macro performance is average, allowing you to focus as close as 5 cms away from the subject. The built-in flash worked well indoors, with no red-eye and good exposure. The night photograph was OK, with the maximum shutter speed of 8 seconds long enough for most situations."
Kodak EasyShare V610 - Noise and Focus
Mark continues: "The new Perfect Touch feature works well with the right images, balancing out the shadow and highlight areas. The 1/2.5 inch, 6 megapixel sensor used in the Kodak Easyshare V610 was fine at ISO 64 and 100, but produced noisy images at ISO 200 and 400, with the fastest speed of ISO 800 best avoided. With no optical image stabilisation system, this makes the Kodak V610 something of an outdoors, good-light camera. I noticed two other issues with image quality that are worth noting. First, the corners of images taken at the wide-angle lens settings were slightly out-of-focus. Secondly, if set to Auto ISO the V610 generally sets the ISO speed to 200 or 400 when using the longer focal lengths to help avoid camera shake."

About PhotographyBLOG

At first the one and only purpose was to let this site function as one of those popular web logs with Photography as main topic. But as we all know Photography is a pretty big subject to publish about so Mark decided to focus on some hot key points like mentioning all new introductions, reviews, reports from events like PMA and Photokina, sharing some impressive and creative photos and Mark's sole perspective of his feeling about this fascinating world of Digital Imaging. Mark is based in the UK, but his eagle-eye focuses global.
