Digital Camera Review

1.7 With a big entrance at the 2006 International Consumer Electronics Show, Kodak announced the EasyShare V570 to head up its stylish V-line. The 5 megapixel digital camera is the first consumer-oriented digital camera with a dual lens system, which Kodak calls its Retina technology. This system incorporates a very wide 23mm lens with a non-extending 39-117mm zoom lens for a combined 5x optical zoom., with its own imaging sensor.
