Form Meets Function with New KODAK ULTRA Compact Single Use Camera

New Design Provides Stylish Single Use Camera to Take Great Pictures, Anytime, Anywhere

London, April 3rd, 2007 – The newest “must have” in any bag this season, whether it be a purse, backpack, gym bag or satchel, is the new KODAK ULTRA Compact Single Use Camera.  With a simple, clean and modern design and silver-coloured body, consumers can feel confident pulling this camera out of their bag, and looking stylish while never missing a shot, even when a more expensive camera isn’t available.  This improved design, combined with the KODAK EKTANAR Lens and Kodak’s 800-speed film, deliver the same high definition pictures with unbeatable clarity of any 800-speed single use camera that consumers have come to expect from KODAK ULTRA Compact Cameras.

“The new ULTRA Compact Camera is an ideal complement to a digital picture-taking experience,” said Julian Baust, Chairman & Managing Director, Kodak Limited.  “With its sleek new design, it provides an alternative that’s as attractive as it is functional.  Easy-to-use, stylish and reliable, consumers can pull it out on the slopes, at a formal gathering, or at a children’s birthday party and capture great pictures.”

Consumers believe that single use cameras represent a great alternative to expensive cameras to capture quality images.  While many consumers own expensive cameras, they still turn to single use cameras as an alternative.  Reasons cited by consumers include:

o     More expensive camera not available
o     Full memory card or dead battery
o     Worry about exposing expensive cameras to the elements, whether those elements are snow, sand, or rain
o     Worry about young children damaging a more expensive camera

The new ULTRA Compact Camera is now available for consumers to purchase in Boots stores for £9.99.
