Interesting. That's a new size for Kodak as far as I can tell.

Yes. And the largest in any Kodak consumer cam. Z1275 pics look good with the 1/1.72 sensor so this I want to see some pics from.

With the size of the sensor and since they restrained themselves to 10MP it might have useable high ISO capability for a compact P&S.

I hope so but am doubting the 8000 ISO will be good for much else than night vision. :-)

Actually I'd be happy with ISO 800 as good as the current 1/2.5 ISO 200 and ISO 1600 as good as the 1/2.5 ISO 400 but that mightbe expecting too much. Stillreal improvements at 800 and 1600 would be welcome.

AC & domang-

I am asking for a little help, please. I am attempting to get things moving, once again,in the Kodak Folder. Thanks! I hope you are enjoying a great weekend!

Sarah:

I agree. It's been almost as quiet at DPReview. In the last three days there have been several threads on jpg compression. I did some statistical analysis on file sizes for standard and fine compression. I'll post that in a new thread here plus some test shot at the three levels of compression on the Z612.

By the way I have never seen a series of samples done byone person with so many different camerasas you posted in another reply and to have all so good. A realshow of excellence. Thanks.
