Digital Trends - Kodak has been in trouble for awhile. Over the past few months it’s sort of reminded me of someone in a SAW movie: hacking away at his limbs to save himself. Kodak’s been slicing departments with the greater good in mind, and once it killed its sensor business, we felt like its camera division entirely wasn’t long for this world.
<p>AP - Picture it: Save for a few disposable point-and-shoots, Kodak is exiting the camera business.
<p>Reuters - Eastman Kodak Co , the inventor of the digital camera, plans to get out of that business in the first half of the year as the bankrupt company looks to cut costs.
Digital Trends - Kodak has announced it plans to stop making digital cameras, camcorders, and digital picture frames, phasing out the products by the middle of the year. The move marks the end of an era for Kodak, taking the company out of the photography business it virtually defined during the 20th century. Kodak is currently in bankruptcy protection; it says it plans to seek out partners to license the Kodak brand for other products, and the company will still offer photo printing, desktop inkjet, and online/software services printers directly to consumers.
Digital Trends - Canon has unveiled a slew of new cameras – 10, to be specific. These include new iterations in its PowerShot A-series. We’ll spare you the specifics and offer a briefer on the new standouts.
Reuters - Sony Corp on Thursday kept its annual LCD TV sales forecast unchanged but cut its forecasts for digital camera and PlayStation 3 hardware sales.
Digital Trends - Fighting to remain relevant in a camera phone driven world, Panasonic has announced two new point-and-shoot compact cameras that offer something most smartphones don’t — durability in tough environments.
Digital Trends - Today Sony launched three new pocket cams, despite the decreasing interest in this sector. Next-generation digital cameras (Micro four thirds and other non-traditional interchangeable lens system devices) coupled with the effects of full-frame DSLRs and smartphones have eroded the entry-level point-and-shoot market significantly.
Digital Trends - When you’re a phone geek it’s easy to get tied up with thoughts of 4-inch-plus touchscreens, big megapixel cameras and multi-core processsors; effectively forgetting the low-end of the market entirely.
Digital Trends - If we can say anything about Steve Jobs, it’s that his death was premature. The Apple innovator had a lot of ground left to cover and was likely only getting started revolutionizing the face of consumer electronics in numerous ways and fields. A new book detailing some of this unfinished innovation, Inside Apple, reveals that Jobs had plans to impact the digital photography industry.
