Your new life of photography has begun.

With the advent of digital photography, people are taking more pictures, but many of those pictures just wind up sitting in a folder on some computer hard disk drive. All this is about to change now that Olympus has come up with a new way to let users truly integrate digital photography into their daily lives: “Dock&Done”.

What is QDock&Done?

Dock&Done is a total system that puts personal imaging into a single process. For example, by simply setting the digital camera on the cradle, new pictures are saved, photo printing is prepared, and the camera’s batteries are recharged.

• Automatic saving of image ﬁ les: You can automatically store image ﬁ les taken with a Dock&Done-compatible digital camera simply by setting the digital camera on the storage unit.

• Automatic printing of image ﬁ les: When a Dock&Done-compatible printer is connected, you can print the image ﬁ les speciﬁ ed in the print order information with a single action.

PC mode

When the storage unit is connected to a PC, you can manage and edit image ﬁ les stored on the hard disk by using the supplied OLYMPUS Master.
