Kodak DX4330 Digital Camera D32

 

G Bruce, 2003

1.What does the camera do?

Takes still photos and short videos…..

The DX4330 is a good quality digital camera, which takes ‘normal’ still photos as well as (very!) short videos.

Uses a ‘docking station’ for quick, simple downloading…..

It is part of a system which Kodak call ‘Easyshare’ and by using the docking station it is extremely simple to download the pictures into the computer, just by standing the camera on the station. While it is left sitting there, the batteries also recharge. It’s the ‘cordless kettle’ of the digital camera world!

2.Can also use removable memory cards for greater flexibility…..

Pictures are normally stored inside the camera’s memory until you are ready to download, however, the DX4330 also has the option of using memory cards. These work like a removable film in a ‘normal’ camera. They can sometimes be a handy idea for schools, because each class can have its own card. The card can be taken out and kept safe while another class takes off with the camera. When it comes to downloading, the class can either wait until the camera is free again or use a ‘card reader’ .

3.How do I take photos?

Before starting, take a close look at the camera to see what everything does. The controls you’re likely to use a lot take the form of push buttons or a knob, whereas the ‘once in a lifetime’ settings are hidden away in menus that you access on the screen at the back.

The following instructions assume that the camera has a battery in and all the ‘menu’ options have already been set up.
