Uniden Showcases the Latest in Digital Camera Innovation At PMA 2004

Feb. 10, 2004--Uniden America Corporation will exhibit the latest Polaroid digital camera products at the Photo Marketing Association (PMA) Annual Convention and Trade Show, February 12-15, 2004, at the Las Vegas Convention Center in booth #C110.

Uniden has an exclusive agreement with World Wide Licenses Limited (WWL) to distribute the Polaroid line of digital cameras to retailers in the United States. At PMA, Uniden will debut the Polaroid x530 Digital Camera, the world's first point-and-shoot digital camera to incorporate the revolutionary, high-fidelity Foveon X3 4.5 million pixel direct image sensor. This new image sensor technology allows the Polaroid x530 to produce brilliantly sharp 8 x 10 images with warm tones and rich colors - the basis for making extraordinary digital prints. In addition to capturing still images, the Polaroid x530 captures high-resolution TV-quality VGA video clips at 30 frames per second. It is scheduled to ship to retailers in June 2004 with a suggested retail price of $399.

"We are excited to launch our distributor partnership with WWL and to feature the best digital cameras offered in the industry," said Uniden America President Al Silverberg. "The Polaroid x530 is the first of its kind and represents the beginning of an exciting new class of digital cameras."
