Were they digital though? Nope… so we are talking a new type of camera. A digital SLR. If that’s even what it is….

Sounds interesting… so, a super-high ISO? I don’t fancy grainy pictures all that much though…

It will probably be a camera that won’t have a flash, and is highly sensitive to light. They’ve been working on this for quite some time.

Hey Carlos. Obviously we’re looking for a digital SLR… All we’ve heard is it’s a new product for Kodak. If you say they’ve done SLRs, then that makes it more interesting. What else could it be? Oh, and I’m 27 and a quarter… Cards, presents and cake to the usual address please

First SLR? Kodak had the Retina series in the 1950s and 1960s. Nice.

To be fair, the Kodak SLR’s were rebadged Nikon bodies BUT with Kodak sensors.

“an affordable rangefinder camera using the same Kodak sensor as the Leica M9.”

Sign me up.

Big K’s first ever SLR? Where were you guys in the Nineties? All DSLRs were Kodak made until Nikon debuted the D1 in 1999.

Kodak continued to make DSLRs into the 2000s; in fact they were the first to market a 13+ megapixel DSLR, but then opted out of that market segment.

I speculate the new camera may be an EVIL like the Panny G1 and GH1, or – who knows? – an affordable rangefinder camera using the same Kodak sensor as the Leica M9.
