NewsKodak's 7.6" OLED Display Will Cost a Grand

OLED spreads its wings further into the consumer sector today, as Koday has unveiled what it claims is the first consumer-available wireless OLED picture frame. And it will be available just in time for the holiday shopping season, provided you have an extra grand just taking up space in you wallet.

The new frame sports a 7.6-inch diagonal panel, and because it uses OLED technology it can boast a superior 180-degree viewing angle to existing digital frames currently on the market. But lest anyone balk at the price tag (who are we kidding, go ahead and balk!), it also comes with a built-in memory card reader, USB port, and 2GB of internal memory Kodak says is capable of storing up to 10,000 images. And those pictures will be beamed through a widescreen 16:9 display at an 800x480 resolution.

So choose your poison - thousand dollar keyboard or thousand dollar picture frame?

NewsKodak Bracing to Take on Apple TV with its Theatre HD Player

Kodak to release Theatre HD Player

Kodak has announced a wireless HD media hub that will mark its foray into this particular market segment. The Kodak HD Theatre player will do all a media hub is supposed to: beam videos, pictures, podcasts, music and internet radio to an HDTV. It will allow users to watch and edit images and supports up to 720p video playback. Kodak decided against a built-in hard drive, however, the device supports a host of plug-in storage media. Obviously, it will readily support other products from the Kodak stable like digital cameras and photo frames. The Kodak HD Theatre player will go on sale in September for $299.

NewsKodak Rolls Out 50MP Image Sensor, Hasselblad Puts It to Work

Kodak intros 50MP image sensor for DSLR cameras

Eastman Kodak has released its first 50MP image sensor, the KAF-50100, shattering the megapixel count of its previous KAF-39000 model. The KAF-50100 produces 150MB image files, and provides resolution capable of distingishing an object the size of a laptop computer within a 1.5 mile field of view, such as an aerial photo. The sensor is the same physical size (48mm x 36mm) as its previous 39 megapixel model. This is twice the size of the 24mm x 36mm sensor used by full-frame DSLR cameras based on 35mm designs, such as Canon's EOS 5D, and achieves its higher MP count by using Kodak's new TRUESENSE 6.0 micron full frame CCD Technology platform. The image sensor has an 8176 x 6132 pixel array. It's designed for DSLR cameras, but don't expect to see cameras using it at your local big-box electronics store.

To find out more about who's putting this mammoth resolution to work first, join us after the break.
