Specifications

The Kodak EasyShare Z980 Digital Camera offers the advanced image quality of a Digital SLR with all the convenience of a point-and-shoot camera. The 24x optical zoom lens ensures perfect pictures at any vantage point. From brilliant cityscapes to exciting wildlife photography, the Z980 captures your creativity without compromise. Attach the included vertical grip and portrait shooting becomes easier than ever before. An integrated vertical shutter release makes vertical shooting quick, convenient, and comfortable.

Kodak Smart Capture Technology allows you to concentrate on your subjects and let the camera handle the pictures. By intelligently evaluating your composition and adjusting the needed exposure settings, great photos are as easy as point and shoot. The Z980 even captures smooth, 30 frames per second HD Video. MPEG-4 compression saves valuable space on your memory card while still putting broadcast quality video in the palm of your hand. The included Kodak EasyShare Software makes sharing content on the Kodak Gallery and YouTube fast and intuitive. Perfect for all of your advanced photographic challenges, the Kodak EasyShare Z980 brings advanced digital technologies to everyone.

• 24x Optical Zoom: The zoom range of the all-glass Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon Optical Zoom Lens is equivalent to a 26-624mm lens on a 35mm camera. From cityscapes to wildlife photography, this amazing zoom lens ensures that you'll never have to compromise your creative perspective.

• Vertical Shutter Button: An integrated vertical shutter release allows you to photograph all of your subjects with superior ergonomics. An included, detachable vertical grip adds additional support for users that prefer a larger grip.

• Optical Image Stabilization: Advanced Image Stabilization Technology significantly reduces unwanted camera shake for crisp, sharp images - even under low light.

• Smart Capture Technology: Intelligent Scene Detection analyzes your composition while Kodak Capture Control automatically adjusts light sensitivity, exposure, and white balance for brilliant results. Advanced Image Processing opens shadow detail and reduces image noise for great pictures under even the most challenging shooting conditions.

• Advanced Face Detection Technology: Kodak Face Detection Technology locates faces within the frame and adjusts focus and exposure for perfect portraits, every time.

• Upload to YouTube: Posting your videos on YouTube is fast and easy with the included Kodak EasyShare software. Connect your camera to your home or office computer and follow the easy on-screen instructions. It's never been easier to share video clips of family vacations and other fun events.

• The Kodak EasyShare System: Connect the Z980 to your PC. Press the "Share" button. In moments you're uploading photos to the Kodak Gallery. Share photos with friends; enjoy advanced editing tools; order prints online. One-button sharing is made possible with the included Kodak EasyShare Software.
