There is a new mega zoom camera just announced

Looks like Kodak is now into the mega zoom competition.
You can google this: "Kodak Announces New AZ901 - A 90X Megazoom Camera"
Pretty much everyone that mentions it has the same description. Don't know much about it except that it is a 90x zoom and can shoot RAW. Seems that other details are hard to find. Don't know the sensor size or number of pixels or how it compares to the others.

This is a Kodak "branded" camera and not really a product of the company. JK Imaging is building the camera and using the Kodak name (for a fee)

Isn't that true of all current "Kodak" cameras? In fact, I'm guessing that the last cameras sold by Eastman Kodak were actually made by some unnamed Chinese company. Come to think of it, I wonder what unnamed Chinese company makes this for JK Imaging.This is a Kodak "branded" camera and not really a product of the company.

That's true. Like other famous names (RCA?) the name no longer means a thing. The brand name now for so many of the old respected products is nothing more than a marketing tool used by 'strangers'. For those who don't do their home work the brand name can entice them to buy an inferior product.

You can pre-order it. My sense it that sharpness will be an issue.

Agreed, many old brands are used "under licence" and have nothing to do with the qualities of the product as it may have in the past.
And as far as location of manufacture based on brand, also irrelevant today: Just try to buy a Sony audio product actually made in Japan, And want an American made car? Buy a Toyota Avalon!

You are right. A hasselblad digital is made by Fuji but they added some fancy leather and up charged about $2000
