General Imaging, the worldwide exclusive licensee for GE digital cameras, has announced the next generation of GE digital cameras. There are nine all-new models with such features as smile detection, blink detection, upgraded lenses, and LCD screens that adjust to changes in ambient light.
One new model, the E1050 (US$249), adds HDTV, touch-screen and GPS capability. The 2008 GE models are among the first cameras on the market to offer smile detection and blink detection, two separate functions that allow users to capture their subjects at exactly the right moment, the company says.
Unveiled at the 2008 PMA trade show, the new offerings bring to 15 the total number of cameras in the GE-branded digital camera line. Last year’s most popular features—panorama stitching, face detection, in-camera red-eye removal—are all back, combined with slimmer camera bodies.
The new models span the entry-level A series, the compact G series with folded optics (non-protruding lens), and the mid-priced E series. Many of the new models will begin reaching store shelves by early spring.
