Aiptex Pencam Compact - The new lighter, smaller, smarter pencam. It comes with an installation guide, two c.d's (application software and video studio), usb power cable to connect up to your computer, device to hang the camera round your neck, and a stand to place it in when not in use.
The built in memory of the camera is 64 Mbit memory. It supports two kinds of resolution - high resolution (640x480 VGA) for 26 pictures and low resolution (320x240 QVGA) for 107 pictures. Besides, your camera offers several funtions on the LCD, showing the remaining number of pictures as well. With the USB cable, you can transfer all the pictures to your PC. The camera is powered by 2 AAA batteries or by a PC via a USB cable. The downside about using the batteries is that when they are removed, all of the stored pictures are cleared, so watch out for that! Battery capacity: continuous snapshot for 2 hours, stand by works for approx 1 week.There is also an inbuilt self timer mode.
Stored pictures may be downloaded to a PC at any time whether or not the camera is full. Plugging the USB connector into the camera will cause it to reset. A double beep will sound, but all stored pictures will remain. When the USB connector is unplugged the camera will switch off. When connected to the PC the camera may be used as a normal PC camera.
It is easy to edit any photo you want in the album folder. All you have to do is double click the photo icon to execute your default image application (such as Imaging, Paint...etc.) to edit your image file.
You can also email your pictures by clicking the mail button to attach selected image files automatically to a new email document. It is easy to send images to distant family and friends!
You can play any video clip file (AVI format) you want in album folder. However, you can only record for 10 seconds.
So with the Aiptex pencam compact camera you can take stunning video footage and its easy to transform rough video footage into memorable productions for your family, friends or office. A user friendly interface guides you step by step as you capture clips, arrange them into a story, add Hollywood style transitions, animate unlimited titles on screen, add music from your favourite cds or record voice over narration.
It quickly and easily sorts and manages all of your images, videos and sound files. Visually browse and organises folders. It lets you quickly and easily transform a series of photos into 360 degree or wide angle panoramas.
It works great with Windows XP.
Unfortunately i do not know what the price range is like because i received it as a gift. I have had a look on the internet but not sure, i will try and find out soon though. I think it's roughly around £50.
You can even take pictures without people realising! It's that small!
Hope you enjoy using yours as much as i do mine, if i have persuaded you to buy one!
Fantastic little camera with 12 x zoom & 10.1MP (better than TZ5), but cheaper than TZ7
