Ultrawide Zoom in a Compact Camera

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the melts-in-your-mouth-not-in-your-hand dept.

manavendra writes to tell us that Image-Resource has an interesting writeup on the recently released Kodak EasyShare V570 digital camera. The V570 is a dual lens camera that incorporates an ultra-wide angle lens and an optical zoom lens. The camera will feature 5 megapixel resolution, 5x optical zoom, in-camera panorama stitching, video recording, a 2.5 inch LCD screen, in-camera distortion correction, and picture blur alert.

    Autostitch is a free (as in beer) app that will stitch together multiple photos with no human intervention. Pretty nice stuff.

    BTW, it's a MS Windows app but works great under wine.
