with incompatible accessories or attachments, failure to follow Kodak's operation, maintenance or repacking
instructions, failure to use items supplied by Kodak (such as adapters and cables), or claims made after the
duration of this warranty. Kodak makes no other express or implied warranty for this product, and disclaims
