The 'Digital Photo Manager'
Using the 'Digital Photo Manager', you can view and modify JPEG pictures from a memory card, Picture CD, DVD, or a CD ROM. You can store them on a DVD+RW/+R or on the memory card. In addition, you can store the pictures in a so-called album in a specific order, yet without changing the order in which the pictures are stored on the memory card. Moreover, you can view the pictures in a slide show at adjustable intervals. Store the slide show on a DVD+RW/+R so you can view them on a DVD player.
What is the difference between a 'Roll' and 'Albums'? 'Roll'
A folder containing JPEG pictures. It is comparable with a conventional 35mm film for cameras. Rolls will be created automatically from the digital cameras.
