Kodak DC 5000 Digital Camera Recall

[Quickbeam]

FYI in case you have one... ...I know a bunch of folks posting to the Forums have digital cameras...

In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Eastman Kodak Company, of Rochester, N.Y., is voluntarily recalling about 75,000 DC5000-model digital cameras worldwide. Due to a manufacturing defect, consumers using these cameras can suffer an electrical shock.

If this camera uses a small CRT for the display, the EHT can be quite nasty.
If it uses an LCD, the backlight can have enough voltage to shock.
