This capability is essential for enhancing the photography experience, as it provides an opportunity to make adjustments or retake shots for the best possible result.

Another essential characteristic of the Z340 is its ability to store images digitally. Users can save their photos on an SD card, which offers expanded storage options beyond the in-camera printing capability. This dual functionality enables photographers to enjoy the immediacy of instant prints while also preserving their images for future use.

The camera also features a user-friendly interface, with simple controls that make it accessible for photographers of all skill levels. Users can choose from various editing options and filters to apply to their photos, allowing for creative expression before the final print.
