General Description
The Polaroid
Digital Camera, Model PDC-2000 (Figure 1-1), captures high-quality color
pictures electronically. It has all the features of an automatic compact 35mm camera, including
automatic exposure, electronic flash and automatic focus. These features produce correct
exposure, accurate colors and sharp focus under a great variety of picture-taking conditions.
Manual overrides are also provided for unusual conditions.
With appropriate image-processing software (such as Polaroid PicturePro or Adobe
Photoshop) and the Polaroid PDC-2000 plug-in software on a Macintosh computer or PC,
users can view the pictures taken with the PDC-2000 camera and transfer them to their
computer via a standard SCSI-2 interface. They can then use image-processing software to
manipulate, enhance, save and print the pictures.
When the camera is connected to a computer, the camera can be controlled and operated via
the computer keyboard and mouse. This is useful when the camera is used in a stationary
setup.
