Kodak has quietly launched the EasyShare Z760, a 6.1-megapixel camera with a 3x optical zoom. It also has an “all-glass Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon” lens, which sounds both awesome and totally incomprehensible. Perhaps it’s like the Carl Zeiss lenses that Sony and Nokia are always on about—nice bits of flare for marketing, but in the end not all that much better than Bob’s Optics Shack.
However, ‘Schneider-Kreuznach’ sounds German and ‘Variogon’ sounds alien, so this could be heralding the first blitz of products from my most-hoped-for future ever: consumer electronics designed by Space Nazis.
