/ Road Warrior's Digital Camera
The PDR-2A has no flash, and the LCD is tiny. However, this digital camera offers a new imaging technology, a tiny form factor, and a weight of 5.3 ounces. With a built-in PC Card, it will dock with a notebook's PC Card slot for maximum mobility. The camera features CMOS imaging, rather than traditional CCD imaging technology. CMOS is less expensive than CCD sensors and, Toshiba claims, now offers nearly the same quality as CCD. Toshiba's SmartMedia card can save 48 images on a 2-MB card or 96 images
on a 4-MB card and allows for easy loading and transfer of data. All files are saved as JPEG and are compliant with any OLE software. You also get Sierra Imaging's Image Expert software, which gives drag-and-drop capabilities to photo-imaging software.
