Kodak Digital Camera DX-3500 1.01

The Kodak DX3500 priced at $299.95 is the first of two new models in Kodak�s line of EasyShare compatible digital cameras. The 2.2-megapixel (1800x1200) resolution is suitable for everything from e-mailing to printing 8 x 10-inch photos. The DX3500 features a 38mm (35mm equivalent) lens with 3X digital zoom, auto white balance, dedicated macro mode and Texas Instruments' first fully programmable DSP-based processor designed exclusively for digital imaging applications.

The DX3500 has 8MB of internal memory to store up to 48 pictures without need of a memory card. To capture more pictures there is an expansion slot for removeable CompactFlash Type I flash cards. The optional camera dock, priced at $79.95, includes a rechargeable NiMH battery pack and AC adaptor. It connects via USB, so that it�s always ready for your camera to upload and recharge.

The Kodak EasyShare system features a camera dock and two new digital camera models-the Kodak DX3500 Digital Camera and the Kodak DX3600 Zoom Digital Camera. The camera dock addresses two of the biggest objections to digital cameras: easy connection and battery charging.
Once the camera is placed in the dock, pictures are automatically uploaded to the computer and the dock recharges the camera�s battery pack. The system also includes software that allows users to connect to the Internet to e-mail or print their pictures. EasyShare makes picture sharing as easy as picture taking: one-button simple.

Using Kodak Picture Software, the EasyShare system makes digital picture taking and sharing one-button simple. Features of the system include:

Fast Picture Transfer: At the touch of a button, the camera dock automatically transfers the pictures into the computer within seconds, avoiding the need to fuss with connecting cables or load memory cards into reading devices. Consumers no longer face a mystery of how to get their pictures out of the digital camera.
Easy Picture Sharing: The Kodak Picture Software incorporated into the EasyShare system lets you simply e-mail or print your favorite pictures. A few more clicks, and you can also edit and enhance them.

Simple Picture Management: The system lets you organize your pictures automatically in folders the way you want them: by date, name or event. It also lets you automatically delete all pictures on the camera after they are transferred to a computer, readying the camera for more picture taking.

Convenient Battery Recharging: The camera is powered and recharged in the dock in less than two and a half hours, or half the time required by competing chargers.
