Correct, that is a Partagas Cifuentes. It's about the same shade as the DPG Blue, I think the camera got a bit confused by the flare on the table from the flash and things ended up looking a bit darker than they should.
LOL.
It's an old Kodak C533 5MP. It's really only an average camera - very easy to confuse the metering, the image sensor is only average, only 3x zoom, poorly designed flash arrangement and a few small distortion issues. It's main thing was that it has a larger body, so it's easier to hold, uses AA batteries which is really convenient, and it wasn't very expensive. It works as a tool, but not something you can shoot art quality with. Good for stuff like this, ebay/craigslist, photos of BBQs, machinery (ok, the spin dial on/off and settings are very convenient when your hands are filthy and greasy).
