Multiple Advanced Interfaces
Store what you’ve shot on the provided Microdrive®card* or optional CompactFlash** or SD
Memory Cards. Microdrive®is a hard disk drive that’s the same size as a CompactFlash card,
but with many Gigabytes of capacity. You can eject it, as you would a CompactFlash or SD
Memory Card, and load data into your PC via an optional card adapter. Also simply connect
the camera via its USB2.0 interface for quick downloading
to a PC. All transfer is digital-to-digital, so you won’t lose
any quality in the process.
PictBridge and Digital Print
Order Format for easy printing
Just connect the USB terminal and print stills directly from
the camera to a PictBridge compatible printer. The camera
directly creates Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) information
for selection and quantity of images to print, rotation, as well
as index printing, and user and picture title information, for
when you take your media to a printing service.
