Throughout reading the article about the “breakthrough” process of colored cameras, I noticed the Kodak cameras played a very important role throughout the evolution of cameras in America. “Encouraged by the success of the Instamatic camera, Kodak took the logical step of introducing an even small step format...” Statements like this one shows how smart Kodak was in making sure all technologies were up to date in order to have an effective market. – Megan Gallagher | Throughout reading the article about the “breakthrough” process of colored cameras, I noticed the Kodak cameras played a very important role throughout the evolution of cameras in America. “Encouraged by the success of the Instamatic camera, Kodak took the logical step of introducing an even small step format...” Statements like this one shows how smart Kodak was in making sure all technologies were up to date in order to have an effective market. – Megan Gallagher | ||

| + | Technology has always had a funny way of evolving and changing with the times. In my opinion, nothing shapes the market quite like competition does. It was quite interesting to see how the United States and Japan constantly went back and forth in the camera industry. Anytime one side made improvements on their camera, the other side fired right back with their own improvements. Both side continually worked on the size of the cameras themsevles, since most consumers wanted them to be small enough to fit in their pockets. Both side worked continually on the focus and sharpness to improve photographic quality. Today, this competition still exists. Anybody can see this when they walk through Best Buy, since so many digital cameras are on display, with each company trying to add more and more features to their product. -Patrick Kramer | ||
