A Digital Still Camera Built to Accommodate the High-Definition Television Experience
New York Times, United States
For adherents of high-definition technology, everything must be full of crisp detail. PCs, DVRs and TVs can now reproduce images so sharp as to be unflattering. But what if you want to see the latest photos from your digital camera on your big HDTV screen?
For that you will need something like Kodak’s V1253, a 12-megapixel camera that can connect to HD televisions (with an optional $100 dock) and produces video at 720p quality, a bit less than full HD.
This $299.95 camera, available through www.kodak.com and retailers, has image stabilization and face detection built in. It stores images and video in 32 megabytes of internal memory or on an SD card.
The V1253 has multiple scene modes, including some for candlelight and self-portraits, and a panning mode that allows you to stitch together images to capture a panoramic vista. All of the images and video can be viewed on an HDTV or high-definition monitor.
