-ZoomBrowser EX 2.4/ImageBrowser 1.4 featuring improved operation ease.
The ZoomBrowser EX (Windows)/ImageBrowser (Mac) programs were well received with the PowerShot S-series and
improved with the IXY DIGITAL. The programs are now bundled with the PK500 and PowerShot G1.
ZoomBrowser EX 2.4 is for simple retouching such as color and brightness adjustments and cropping. It also enables
slide show playback on a PC, supports e-mail and DPOF editing. By supporting e-mail, the program can set the image
size and compression ratio and create the image according to the required file size. The mailer program starts up auto-
matically, and the image is attached to a new e-mail message automatically. In case the mailer program is not started up
automatically, the image is saved after being resized and it can be attached to e-mail manually.
Like ZoomBrowser EX, ImageBrowser 1.4 also enables simple retouching and slide show playback on a PC, supports e-
mail and editing DPOF editing. The printing feature has been expanded to enable you to set the desired number of copies
to be printed, change the printing sequence of the images, resize or rotate images, and insert text in the image.
* ImageBrowser does not enable automatic attachment of an image to e-mail. It must be done manually.
-New power source
The PowerShot G1 uses a rechargeable lithium-ion
battery (BP-511). Also, with Compact Power
Adapter CA-560 (provided), the camera can be
powered by a household power outlet. And with
the Charge Adapter/Car Battery Cable Kit CR-560
(sold separately), the camera can be powered by a
car battery in case you run out of battery power on
the road.
The BP-511 can be charged in the camera body
by using the Compact Power Adapter CA-560. This
eliminates the need to remove the battery from the
camera body.
The PowerShot G1’s internal battery is recharge-
able. As shown in Fig. 2-9, you can use Compact
Power Adapter CA or Charge Adapter/Car Battery
Cable Kit CR-560 to recharge the battery. Use
whichever method that suits your situation.
