...agree David.
But for me ,a little bit more of noise or purple fringing (or a little
less resolution),isn't a problem.
Kodak also have 50 asa !!(pana 80,273 difference)
i hope in a test....

Kodak cameras have a reputation for producing a poor JPEG image - perhaps
too much compression? I would check image quality very carefully. Even
Canon have not been able to produce a lens (on their S2) matching the
quality of the Panasonic FZ5, so can Kodak?

Agreed, unless movie resolution is a critical factor for someone.

That's part of the problem - there are a lot of unanswered questions about
that camera. The lack of reviews concerns me slightly - why no reviews?
Some sites seems not to review cameras which might get less than a
"Recommended" rating....

Full specs are on the Kodak site. Since the camera was announced only
on Aug 2, it probably hasn't become available for testing yet.
If it lives up to the specs, it should be a real winner.
