Kodak Digital Camera DC50 1.22 Description

This was basically a point-and-shoot camera with a built-in flash, auto-exposure, 3:1 zoom lens and a macro setting. The flash could be set to fire when there wasn't enough light, all the time, or could be turned off completely. Focusing was automatic down to a couple of feet, or on the macro setting was fixed at 18 inches. There was limited control of the auto-exposure via the LCD control panel at the rear of the camera. The image size was 756 x 504 pixels 24-bits deep with a nominal resolution of 144 dots per inch. There are sample images available....

A limited edition of PhotoEnhancer was provided with the camera, but there was no Photoshop plug in and there was no support in Photoshop 3.0 for Kodak's file format, so you had to use PhotoEnhancer to get the image from the camera to your computer. The connection from camera to computer was via a serial port, and the speed of the serial connection depended upon the capacity of the computer.

My Mac supported 230 kbps connections, but transfers seemed slow - it's possible the software did not support this speed on my Mac (the documentation supplied on disk seems to suggest that the camera does handle fast connections). If your computer could accept flash cards, you could also transfer images by treating the card as a standard DOS drive..

File sizes depended on which of three quality settings were chosen: typical values for each of the three quality settings were about 168 kb, 120 kb, 80 kb. Click here for a page showing a small cropped image at each quality setting.

The camera was decidedly not a professional grade camera, but it didn't pretend to be. It was a useful camera for quick Web page images and for newsletter content. If the price had been a little lower it would have been fine as a consumer grade camera, but at the release date it was still much more expensive than a good film-based camera with the same feature set - and spending the same cash on a film camera put you at the high end of amateur equipment. Call it a toy with ambitions.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
