Acer CR-8530 Digital Camera
Acer announced the new CR-8530 digital camera, featuring 8-megapixel resolution. The camera features a largish 2.5" LCD for previewing images.
The good thing about image quality is that you can get them printed onto A3 sized media and still not lose any detail. The CR-8530 is lightweight at 150 grams, and offers a 3x optical zoom and 5.1x digital zoom.
The camera also provides PictBridge support, allowing you to print directly to a compatible printer without the need to access a PC. You can also record videos in AVI format at 640x480 resolution and 30 fps. In the macro mode, you can take pictures of objects as close as 5cm.
Priced around £190, more info about the Acer CR-8530 camera is available from Acer's website.
