English to Hindi: Kodak History General field: Other Detailed field: Cinema, Film, TV, Drama
Source text - English Kodak may have invented the handheld camera, but overcautiousness brought this tech giant to its knees. Founded in 1888, the company was over a century old when it filed for bankruptcy in 2012. Sadly, the famous camera and photo printing company failed to keep up with the changing times. Having invented the digital camera themselves in 1975, Kodak were unable to actually manufacture the camera due to conservative inside forces that held them back. In essence, Kodak lay the important groundwork for the age of digital photography, but fear of undercutting their own market meant they didn’t go digital themselves. This meant that by the time they were ready to manufacture the digital camera they invented, it was too late. Others were already dominating the market. Once film and physical photo supplies became obsolete, Kodak ran out of money fast. It was left with $6.75 billion in debt, and had to let more than 50,000 employees go. To this day, Kodak still focuses on selling print supplies and ink cartridges, but it’s very unlikely it’ll ever reach the profits it could’ve had. Now more than ever, in an age of ever-more futuristic tech, it pays to keep ahead of the times!
Translation - Hindi कोडैक ने भले ही हैंडहेल्ड कैमरा का आविष्कार किया हो लेकिन अत्यधिक सावधानी ने इस तकनीकी दिग्गज कम्पनी को अपने घुटनों पर ला दिया। 1888 में स्थापित, कंपनी एक सदी से अधिक पुरानी हो चुकी थी जब 2012 में ये दिवालिया हो गई। अफसोस की बात है कि प्रसिद्ध कैमरा और फोटो प्रिंटिंग कंपनी बदलते वक़्त के साथ खुद को बदलने में विफल रही। 1975 में खुद डिजिटल कैमरा का आविष्कार करने के बाद वास्तव में कोडैक कैमरे के निर्माण में असमर्थ रहे, अंदरूनी दकियानूसी शक्तियों के कारण उन्होंने खुद को रोक लिया। संक्षेप में, कोडैक ने डिजिटल फ़ोटोग्राफ़ी के युग के लिए महत्वपूर्ण आधार तैयार किया लेकिन अपने खुद के बाजार को कम करने के डर के चलते वे खुद ही डिजिटल नहीं हुए। इसका मतलब यह हुआ कि जब तक वे अपने द्वारा आविष्कार किए गए डिजिटल कैमरे का निर्माण करने के लिए तैयार हुए तब तक बहुत देर हो चुकी थी। दूसरी कंपनियां पहले से ही बाजार पर हावी हो चुकी थी। जैसे ही फिल्म और भौतिक फोटो की आपूर्ति अप्रचलित हुई कोडैक के पास पैसा आना तेजी से कम हो गया। कम्पनी पर 6.75 बिलियन डॉलर का कर्ज़ हो गया था और 50,000 से ज़्यादा कर्मचारियों को नौकरी से निकालना पड़ा। आज तक कोडैक अभी भी प्रिंट सप्लाइज़ और इंक कार्ट्रिज बेचने पर ध्यान केंद्रित करता है लेकिन यह शायद ही संभव है कि वह कभी भी उस मुनाफ़े तक नहीं पहुंच पाएंगे जो वो कमा सकते थे। भविष्यवादी तकनीक के इस युग में अब समय से आगे रहने के लिए पहले से कहीं ज़्यादा भुगतान करना पड़ता है!
