The PDR-3300 is the ideal step-up camera for digital photographers looking to go to the next level of imaging technology, as well as for traditional camera users who are making the transition from film to digital but who want to maintain the freedom of expression that comes with manual controls. The PDR-3300 has it all so it can do it all: a 3.2MP CCD for picture resolutions up to 2048 x1536 in universal JPEG format and three quality settings; USB connectivity along with wireless IR interface; an array of manual controls including full manual, shutter-priority and aperture-priority exposure controls; SD storage; 1.6-inch color LCD; Epson PRINT Image Matching technology; a burst mode for rapid-fire action shooting; five-mode flash; AVI Movie Mode for short video clips; spot and multi metering; and lightning-fast processing, downloading and playback made possible by internal memory. Besides being a great digital still camera, users can also take advantage of the PDR-3300's movie mode for shooting AVI digital video at 320 x 240 or 160 x 120 resolution with a frame rate up to 15 frames-per-second. Like a digital still, an AVI video file can be e-mailed to family and friends, burnt onto a CD, viewed on a TV, or uploaded to a Web site.
