The new Kodak EasyShare DX7630 camera is the most advanced EasyShare digital camera to date and provides a 6.1 (effective) megapixel imager combined with a Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon 3x optical zoom lens. The DX7630 features an extensive low-light auto-focus system that combines rapid phase detection with highly accurate (TTL) contrast detection to sharply define a subject, even in almost complete darkness. Selectable focus zones and exposure metering allow users advanced control over each scene.

Working with Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon, Kodak equipped the DX7630 with a 3x f/2.8 - 8.0 aspheric lens to provide edge-to-edge brightness and sharpness across the frame. Image quality is heightened with the KODAK Color Science image processing chip. This high-performance digital signal processor allows the DX7630 to process images quickly as well as control white balance algorithms to quickly and precisely analyze lighting conditions and color balance to deliver sharp, color accurate, and properly exposed images. The aperture priority, shutter priority and manual modes allow a significant degree of advanced functionality for the more experienced photographer. It's 16 pre-programmed scene modes (Portrait, Sport, Landscape, Close-up, Night Portrait/Landscape, Snow, Beach, Text, Fireworks, Flower, Manner, Self Portrait, Party, Children, and Back light) provide users point-n-shoot simplicity.

This latest DX model includes Kodak's new "Camera Favorites" feature. With a touch of the red-jeweled Share button, people can store multiple pictures in an on-camera digital album. These pictures can then be shared anytime on the camera's large, 2.2-inch, high-resolution (153,000 pixels) LCD screen. The Share button also allows users to select photos for printing and e-mailing, with the ability to store up to 32 e-mail addresses in the camera's memory.
