INTRODUCTION

Features

•2.0 million Effective Pixels

A high-resolution megapixel CCD provides 2.0 million ef- fective pixels (2.11 million total pixels) for images that print beautifully.

•Fixed focus lens for quick operation

Fixed focus eliminates the need for lens movement, which shortens startup time and shooting time.

•1.6-inch TFT color LCD monitor screen

•4X digital zoom

•12MB flash memory

Images can be recorded without using a memory card.

•Support for SD memory cards and MMC (MultiMedia Cards) for memory expansion

•Easy Charging

Just place the camera onto the USB cradle to charge its battery.

•Easy Image Transfer

Transfer images to a computer simply by placing the cam- era onto the USB cradle.

•Best Shot

Simply select the sample scene that matches the type of image you are trying to record and the camera performs troublesome setups automatically for beautiful pictures ev- ery time.

•DCF Data Storage

DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) data storage protocol provides image inter-compatibility between the digital camera and printers.

•Digital Print Order Format (DPOF)

Images can be printed easily in the sequence you want using a DPOF compatible printer. DPOF can also be used when specifying images and quantities for printing by pro- fessional print services.

•PRINT Image Matching II Compatible

Images include PRINT Image Matching II data (mode set- ting and other camera setup information). A printer that supports PRINT Image Matching II reads this data and ad- justs the printed image accordingly, so your images come out just the way you intended when you recorded them.

•Bundled with Photo Loader and Photohands

Your camera comes bundled with the latest version of Photo Loader, the popular application that automatically loads images from your camera to your PC. Also included is Photohands, an application that makes image retouch- ing quick and easy.
