The Kodak EasyShare Z7590 is the higher end model, with 5 megapixels and a 10x optical zoom lens. With its black body and SLR-like shape, this camera looks strikingly similar to its sister series camera, the DX7590. Both cameras have a 38-380mm Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon lens protruding from the front. The new Z7590 has a ½.5-inch CCD and a Kodak Color Science Chip that allow features like the 2-frame-per-second burst mode to perform.

A 2.2-inch LCD screen with 153,000 pixels displays live histograms, as well as menus and images. The EasyShare Z7590 also has an electronic viewfinder to preserve power when necessary. Both the viewfinder and the LCD screen capture 100 percent of the view from the lens, so users can take accurate pictures with either viewing option. The Kodak Z7590 packs additional features like 32 MB of internal memory and a flash sync connection. This EasyShare will be available in May 2005 for a retail price of $449.
At measurements of 4 x 2.7 x 1.6 inches, the Kodak Z730 has a nice right-hand grip without the bulkiness of the Z7590. The Z730 has the same 2.2-inch LCD screen as the Z7590, but has a real image optical viewfinder rather than an electronic one. Both cameras have the same manual, priority, and automatic modes, providing a nice range of options for users of all abilities. The Kodak EasyShare Z730 will be available in May 2005 for $349.95.
