Camera Overview — Kodak EasyShare DX4900

The Kodak EasyShare DX4900 is a consumer-oriented point-and-shoot digital camera built around a 4MP, 1/2.5-inch sensor processed through Kodak Color Science Technology. With a maximum still resolution of 2400x1800 pixels, it delivers images suitable for standard prints and everyday photography. The camera offers an ISO range from 100 to 400, giving shooters basic flexibility across different lighting conditions.

A 1.8-inch TFT LCD with approximately 72,000 dots serves as the primary composition and review screen, complemented by an optical real-image viewfinder for shooting in bright conditions. Autofocus is handled via contrast detection with a single focus point. Storage uses CompactFlash media, and the camera connects to a computer via USB.

Power comes from either 2x AA batteries or a single CRV3, with an estimated 200 shots available per set of AA alkaline batteries — practical for casual outings. The built-in multi-mode flash includes red-eye reduction. Burst mode is supported at up to 3 frames per burst.

Color profile options include Color, Black & White, and Sepia. The body is constructed from plastic with metal accents, measures 112 x 69 x 46 mm, and weighs 270g. No weather sealing is present, and there is no image stabilization of any kind.
