I was really saddened to hear of Kodak's current financial difficulties - around since the dawn of popular photography, it's such a shame that they haven't managed to successfully work out todays markets and take advantage of it. There may be light at the end of the tunnel for them though, apparently they owe around $700million but they have over a thousand patents which are worth around $2Billion (they are currently suing Apple, HTC and numerous others) and they have been given a year by their creditors to get their house in order. Good Luck Kodak.
I currently have 1 kodak product in my camera stable, actually, it's not even mine it's my 5 year old's - but it's a goodie. The Kodak EasyShare Sport. It's a funky looking little camera that is pretty much break proof and the best bit - it is waterproof to 3 metres. So it can be thrown in the shower/bath/swimming pool and any other watery mess that you would normally keep your point and shoot away from. I totally recommend it, especially if you have kids and it's pretty cheap too, currently £51.99 from
Amazon.
I took it to Bali and while my friend went off diving, I played with the zebra fish and took some snaps.
