HP c500 manual C500 Digital Camera, Great Pictures, Better Memories

The c500 offers 14.2MP high resolution and 720p HD video recording to capture amazingly detailed photos and videos in vivid colors. With a 5X optical zoom, the c500 lets you magnify and capture sharp images when taking pictures from a distance. The c500 offers you everything you need to capture life-like images to share with family and friends.

Easy-to-navigate user interface

The user interface features modern 3D icons and greater color contrast for improved visibility when navigating menu selections in bright light.

Additionally, when choosing scene modes, two example images are shown to illustrate what a picture would look like using the scene mode compared to using the auto mode.

Smile detection and blink detection

With smile detection, the camera will search for a smile and automatically take the picture when the subject is smiling. This feature is especially helpful when trying to capture pictures of young children.

When using the blink detection feature, the camera alerts you if a subject is blinking when the picture is taken. The camera will then prompt you to either keep or delete the picture. When using the high-speed burst mode, the camera will take 30 VGA -quality photos in one second. This feature is perfect for capturing fast-moving scenes. Now you can capture clear amazing pictures at sporting events.

Over 30 scene modes

With over 30 scene modes, you can easily ensure the best shot is captured in different shooting situations. Pick the mode that best matches your activity or use the intelligent scene mode to let the camera detect the conditions and select the best mode for you.

The c500 comes with three new scene modes for you to create fun special effects: LOMO, Fisheye, and D-lighting. When using LOMO, the camera will create a halo effect around your picture, and capture the people and objects in an artistic, over-saturated color. Using the Fisheye scene mode, the camera will create a circular ￿sh-eye appearance. Turn on D-Lighting to balance high contrast images. The camera optimizes the image by improving details of the darker areas while maintaining natural contrast for a realistic image.
