”The Ultimate Cheap Camera Battlemodo
I have a confession to make: I've never owned a digital camera. I've played around plenty with friend's point-and-shoots, and I have picked up a DSLR on occasion too. But I never saw the point of paying $300 for something my iPhone could pretty much do well enough. Now that summer's coming up and the price of high-megapixel cameras is going down, though, I figure it might be time to pick one out for myself—on the cheap. Let someone else waste money, I want to know what's good at $150 and not a penny more. I'm gonna be picky: I only want a camera that can take shots that make me look like a photography genius while in truth I'm a photography dumbass, but still, the key is to keep the price down.

Big Pussy Beats The Shit Out of a Printer in the Name of Low Ink Prices
In a new spot for Kodak EasyShare printers, Vincent "Big Pussy" Pastore takes a cheap HP out to the docks and yells at it for conning him into buying high-priced ink, before giving it a beating-and-a-half, Office Space style. After sending the printer off to sleep with the fishes, he welcomes the new EasyShare to the family. It's a shame seeing the commercialization of all the goombahs since the Sopranos ended, but at least this one is filmed with some dignity; if I were Paulie Walnuts, I'd be looking for whoever put me up to that terrible Denny's ad and introduce their kneecaps to my baseball bat.

Kodak Easyshare Z712IS: Cute, in a Clowns' Shoes Kind of Way
No, don't ask me why this new Kodak makes me think of Krusty's footwear, but I think it has something to do with its oversimplified roundness. The 12x zoom has got quite a reach on it as well. A quick list of features include: Shutter lag of 0.26 secs; 7.1 Megapixels; High ISO; Image Stabilization. What it is missing: a buttonhole that squirts water at your friends, but what do you expect for $299? There's another pic after the jump.More »

Kodak Launches EasyShare V705 and C875 Digital Cameras
Kodak's still around and they'll be launching two additions to the EasyShare line of digital cameras in the coming months, the C875 and the V705. The V705 is an update to the V570 that made its splash at CES back in January while the C875 has no previous lineage. Just like V570, the V705 has that wacky two lens setup, this time with a 7.1-megapixel image sensor. The dual lens setup also helps the camera take "ultra wide" shots.
