HP Unveils Digital Cameras and Camcorders Featuring Touch Technology


ANAHEIM, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HP (NYSE:HPQ) today introduced five point-and-shoot digital cameras and three camcorders with features such as LCD displays, up to 5X optical zoom and fashionable colors.

“HP is giving consumers a better way to interact with point-and-shoot cameras by offering models with advanced features at a great value”

The cameras and camcorders come in slim, lightweight designs at prices ranging from $99 to $199.(1) They are expected to be available this spring at select retailers.

Adding to its growing portfolio of touch-enabled notebooks and desktops, HP now features LCD touchscreen displays on select cameras and camcorders. In addition, select models feature a new intuitive user interface that makes them a snap to use. Interface improvements include a high color contrast to help ensure better visibility of menus and a choice of more than 25 scene modes to help ensure photos are of the highest quality.

When choosing a scene mode, the display shows two images – how the photo will look in auto mode and how it will look in the selected scene mode. For example, choosing “snow” mode during a ski trip can transform overly bright, washed-out photos into vibrant depictions of the snowcapped mountains.

“HP is giving consumers a better way to interact with point-and-shoot cameras by offering models with advanced features at a great value,” said Mark Ostendorf, manager, Business Development, Personal Systems Group, HP. “Entry-level consumers will love the HP CW series while customers who want a premium experience will enjoy the touch interface of the HP CW450t or PW460t and two of our new camcorders

Touch the future – memories at users’ fingertips

The premium HP CW450t and HP PW460t point-and-shoot digital cameras feature 2.7-inch and 3-inch LCD touchscreen displays, respectively, and a newly designed touch interface for viewing photos with the simple swipe of a finger. Both have 4X optical zoom and support up to 32-gigabyte (GB) SD/SDHC memory. They power up rapidly and minimize the time between taking shots.

The CW450t is available in two colors – blue and merlot – and priced at $109.(1) The PW460t is available in pink and charcoal gray and priced at $149.(1)

The latest HP touchscreen digital camcorders – the V5061u and V5560u – feature large 3-inch LCD touchscreen displays, 1,080p high-definition (HD) recording and motion-detection capabilities. Additionally, the V5560u features 5X optical zoom and a lithium-ion battery. The V5061u provides a dual SD/SDHC memory card for plenty of room to record, and an option to install AA batteries if the lithium-ion battery is not charged. The V5560u and V5061u are priced at $199 and $169,(1) respectively.

HP 1600 toner mengatakan...

I knew it would only be a matter of time before before touchscreen features made it to cameras. every device with a camera on it, already has touchscreen capabilities. I think this will definitely be a very convenient feature for people.
