INTRODUCTION
Overview
Your new digital camera delivers high quality, 2560 x 1920 resolution images using a 3.1
Mega pixel sensor. Using the 1.5" TFT color image LCD monitor, you can compose images
and then examine them in detail. An auto-flash sensor automatically detects the shooting
(lighting) conditions and determines whether the flash should be used. This feature helps
ensure that your images turn out right.
16MB internal (built-in) memory lets you capture and store images without the need for an
additional memory card. However, you may wish to expand the memory capacity (up to 1GB
capacity) by using an external memory card.
In addition to still images, you can record short videos using the movie function.
Images you have taken can be downloaded to your computer using the USB cable (USB
driver required for Win 98 ) You can enhance and retouch your images on your computer by
using the provided editing software, or image editing software you may already own. You
may share your images with your friends via e-mail, in a report, or on a website.
