| The Kodak Color Science chip collects scene data to identify and adjust factors that influence picture quality. |
Exclusive Kodak Color Science Image Processing Chip With the exclusive Kodak Color Science image processing chip, your pictures come to life just the way you remember them. A new high-speed digital processor chip, advanced algorithms, and hardware acceleration features let the Z700 make simultaneous, split-second decisions to produce rich, vibrant, true-to-life colors in almost any lighting situation.
Each time you click the shutter, the Kodak Color Science chip performs an instantaneous and advanced analysis of collected scene data to identify and adjust multiple factors that influence picture quality. The scene light source is detected, and adjustments are made to capture bright whites and true, vivid colors under difficult lighting conditions--fluorescent, tungsten, or daylight. Scene content is analyzed for luminance, focal distance, subject-matter orientation, and color to determine the correct exposure and capture the natural details, accurate flesh tones, and rich colors you see in your composition.
