Greetings Justin,
Thank you for your recent visit to the Kodak Web site and question
about a moving object in your picture.
The flare of light streaks that is showing on the LCD when bright,
specular light sources are visible in the image is due to the LCD not
being able to handle that much light coming in from a point source of
light. The camera isn't rendered unusable and is not a design defect
or flaw. This typically does not manifest itself in the image and is
widespread throughout the digital camera industry. It is not
restricted to any brand or brands of cameras. This artifact may not manifest
itself at exactly the same conditions in different models or brands of
cameras, but all brands of consumer digital cameras will show this
artifact if exposed to bright specular light sources in some manner.
The phenomenon is inherent to the design and not considered a flaw.
We are glad to be of service and are here for you if you need us in the
future. Please reply to us "with history" if this e-mail did not resolve your issue.
NOTE: This year Kodak proudly celebrates the 30th anniversary of its
invention of the first digital camera!
Regards,
Kristofer C.
