Kodak and Motorola Aim to Develop New Digital Cameras

Eastman Kodak Co. and Motorola Inc. announced a technology partnership to develop new lightweight, inexpensive digital cameras. The move, an effort to compete with Japanese rivals, involved goals to improve the technology in often-bulky digital cameras, which record photographic information in a format that can be read by a computer, allowing users to avoid film processing and easily send images over the Internet.
