Kudos to Kodak. Firstly, they put
the CF compartment on the side of the camera (where
it always should be..), secondly they put it the
right way around so that the little finger "lip"
on the back is not blocked by the door, and thirdly
and probably most impressive (and just so simple)
there's actually an eject lever on the bottom
of the camera (shown in the right-hand image here)
which not only ejects the card but pushes the
door open, you can literally aim the camera at
your camera bag, flip the eject and drop the CF
card straight in there... About time! Other manufacturers
take note.. we're fed up of having to use our
nails to pull CF cards out...
The *only* thing they missed is
that this is a CF type I slot which means it can't
take some of the (much) bigger storage drives
(like IBM's 340MB microdrive and 320MB flash devices).

- 8MB Compact Flash card
- 4 AA Alkaline batteries
- 4 AA NiMH rechargable batteries + charger
