DESCRIPTION

The Kodak EasyShare ZD710 combines a seven megapixel CCD imager and a Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon-branded 10x optical zoom lens with a very useful 38 - 380mm equivalent focal range. There is however no form of optical or mechanical image stabilization, a critical feature to make use of such a long lens without a tripod or in low light. Instead, the ZD710 offers digital image stabilization, which likely employs the use of higher ISOs to prevent blur due to camera shake. For framing images, the Kodak ZD710 has a 2.0" 150K pixel LCD display as well as a higher resolution 201K pixel electronic viewfinder. Images are stored on SDHC/SD/MMC memory cards, or in 32MB of internal memory.
