A Glimmer of Hope for a Struggling Brand (DCHQ Editors - 6/5/08)

The Kodak EasyShare Z1085 IS is a remarkable point-and-shoot camera. With Kodak's Smart Capture technology, Z1085 automatically adjusts focus for faces and backgrounds. Not only does the camera take high-quality photographs, but it also has a high-definition video mode featuring a setting specifically designed for YouTube uploads. If you're in the market for a point-and-shoot, the EasyShare Z1085 should be near the top of your list. read original review
