KODAK SHOEBOX SOFTWARE FOR WINDOWS NOW SHIPPING $99 INTRODUCTORY PRICE
OFFERED UNTIL DECEMBER 31,1993

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Oct.26 -- Eastman Kodak Company today announced the
immediate availability of Kodak Shoebox Photo CD Image Manager Software
for the Windows operating environment in the U.S. and Canada.

Kodak designed Shoebox software to help commercial computer users manage
thousands of multimedia titles stored on the desktop, including images
stored on Kodak Photo CD Master, Kodak Pro Photo CD Master, Kodak Photo CD
Portfolio, or Kodak Photo CD Catalog discs. Photo CD images are
high-resolution images originally captured on film, and then digitized and
stored on special compact discs. Photo CD Master discs take images from 35
mm film. Pro Photo CD Master discs take images from film formats up to 4 x
5 inches.

Kodak Shoebox software enables users to index, catalog, and search
thumbnail Photo CD images through user-defined fields, key words, and
captions. This database software simplifies and accelerates the location
and organization of images. With a simple click of a mouse, users can
view, copy, crop, export, or print images. Thumbnail images can be
displayed and printed in contact sheet format.

Kodak Shoebox software supports any number of catalog files. Each catalog
can reference 30,000 or more files and have its own unique set of data
fields. Every Shoebox software catalog can contain 100 or more
user-assigned data fields, plus keywords and captions. Users can create
pop-up lists that eliminate typing errors when building data bases.

Windows users can access Photo CD images on Kodak Photo CD Master, Pro
Photo CD Master, Photo CD Portfolio, and Photo CD Catalog discs in any of
up to six different resolutions--from thumbnail resolution for previewing
images, to full-detail resolution for photographic-quality printing and
enlargement. Users also can retrieve images in TIFF, PCX, GIF, BMP, TGA,
WPG, and PICT file formats, as well as QuickTime movies and WAV audio
files. Availability of Kodak Shoebox Software

platforms. For Windows users, it requires an IBM PC or compatible
80386,80486, or Pentium system, VGA or higher resolution display monitor,
