BEIJING, June 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola (NYSE: MOT), a leader
in wireless communications, and Kodak (NYSE: EK), the world's foremost imaging
innovator, today announced MOTOZINE(TM) ZN5, the first product combining
world-class innovation from both companies. The MOTOZINE ZN5 combines a high-
quality phone and camera experience to help content-craving consumers seize
inspiration and share the content they create and love with the world.
Unveiled today in Beijing at a gallery-inspired event, ZINE ZN5 delivers
an easy and immersive mobile imaging experience. ZN5 is the first mobile phone
to combine Motorola's ModeShift Technology and KODAK Imaging Technology.
Together, they redefine the quality, convenience and connectivity of mobile
imaging devices. With KODAK EASYSHARE Software and easy access to KODAK
Gallery(1) or other web sharing sites,(2) pictures are easily moved off the
device, allowing consumers to print, share and enjoy their favorite photos
whenever they want.
"Today's creative consumers not only want to be the photographer, but also
the retoucher, the exhibitor and the critic," said Jeremy Dale, corporate vice
president, mobile devices marketing, Motorola, Inc. "The MOTOZINE ZN5 lets
them be all the things they want to be."
Built to Shoot
ZN5 puts image capture first, with a high-resolution landscape screen and
one of the fastest click-to-click times available. To launch the camera,
simply slide open the Kodak lens cover to transform the phone into an ultra-
fast 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus, a Xenon flash, 4GB of optional
external memory(3) and optimized settings for low-light environments.
Built-in KODAK Imaging Technology ensures that every picture taken with
ZN5 looks its best. When KODAK Imaging Technology is combined with KODAK
PERFECT TOUCH Technology, images become brighter and more vivid on the spot.
Multiple capture modes, like multi-shot and panorama, which automatically
stitches together continuous shots taken on the horizon line into a single,
extended image(1), makes taking photos fun.
"KODAK Imaging Technology combines Kodak's unparalleled experience in
imaging science with easy connectivity to the company's vast portfolio of
products and services," said John Blake, general manager digital capture and
imaging devices group, vice president Eastman Kodak Company. "We have
redefined the quality, convenience and connectivity of mobile imaging devices.
We have worked closely with Motorola to create a device that not only delivers
Kodak-quality pictures, but allows consumers to explore a wide range of
options for sharing their photos with friends and family around the world."
Built to Share
With one touch, photos can be viewed right from the home screen; no menus,
no searching. This multimedia device provides a fun, quick and easy way to
share favorite photos. Pictures can be uploaded via Gallery Link in one simple
click and instantly shared to the KODAK Gallery
(http://www.kodakgallery.com)(1) to be viewed, stored and shared with friends
and family. ShoZu can be used to upload photos to a variety of social
networking sites(1). ZN5 comes with KODAK EASYSHARE Software, the world's
most used photo software, making it easy to organize, edit, share, store and
find mobile pictures(1). Consumers can transfer pictures to a computer via
USB, Wi-Fi(1) or Bluetooth(R) wireless technology(4) and print wirelessly on
Bluetooth-compatible KODAK All-in-One Printers and at KODAK Picture Kiosks.
Built to Talk
In phone mode, ZN5 features Motorola's patented CrystalTalk(TM) technology
to help callers hear and be heard, even in noisy environments. With dual
compatibility for GSM and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), users can
connect in more areas around the world(2) and enjoy high-speed wireless
connections to surf the Web via a full HTML browser(2). To complete the
communications experience, ZN5 also supports SMS, MMS, IM and personal e-
mail(2).
The MOTOZINE Multimedia Experience
MOTOZINE ZN5 is the first device to carry the MOTOZINE franchise name,
Motorola's new label for its multimedia-optimized devices. For the consumer
who thrives on content consumption and creation, products in the ZINE
portfolio give them the freedom to shape pop culture, on their terms.
MOTOZINE ZN5 will be first available in China in July 2008 and is expected
to roll out around the globe throughout the remainder of the year. For more
