Kodak to finish camera making

spotted this @ dslreports.com


`·.¸¸.·´´``··._.·`·.¸¸.·´´``··._.·`·.¸¸.·´´``··._.·`·.¸¸.·´´``··._.·

Quote ... The troubled photographic equipment maker is to outsource its remaining camera making businesses to Flextronics, a hi-tech designer and manufacturer, as Kodak continues to struggle in the digital arena.

Flextronics will manufacture and distribute Kodak consumer digital cameras, while Kodak will continue to control high-level system design and advanced research and development.

Some 550 Kodak employees will transfer to Flextronics, which will also acquire a substantial stake in Kodak’s digital product centre in Japan.

And why would you guys need something like that? MI5 or CIA candidates... or are you just planning on spying on tanning neighbourhood hotties?

(At least for the British that won't be an option :P)

No not at all. I'm casting doubt over the hot(tie) status of your average British weather. Not many sun tanning opportunities during the year... so a "round the corner" lens might be an expensive investment for only a couple of days worth of fun :P

Though if that picture is anything to go by, I would rather invest in a very durable and non-removeable lens cap!
