General Imaging, the worldwide exclusive licensee for GE digital cameras, has added Walgreens stores to the list of retailers carrying its products. Walgreens has been selling the entire lineup of GE digital cameras through its Web site, and the relationship is now expanding to put GE cameras in all of the pharmacy giant's brick-and-mortar stores.
"Walgreens is a vibrant American institution with high visibility," says Hiroshi "Hugh" Komiya, Chairman and CEO of General Imaging. "It is great to be able to add such an important retailer to our team."
Walgreens stores will stock the A735 and the E850, both in black, beginning April 15, 2008. The GE A735, a seven mexapixel shooter, is one of the first cameras on the market to include blink detection and smile detection, ensuring that the user captures just the right moment when taking shots of people. The E850 has been one of GE's most popular cameras, in part because it boasts a 28mm-equivalent wide-angle lens. The E850 features eight megapixels, 5X zoom, a three-inch LCD, and a 28mm-equivalent wide-angle lens.
