Model 912 is an SLR-type digital camera designed for the photo enthusiast who values control and creativity during the picture taking process and afterwards on the PC. Designed with the photo enthusiast in mind, the PhotoSmart 912 digital camera delivers the control, performance and flexibility of an SLR camera. The camera was developed with HP's imaging technology, creating a "custom photo lab" inside the camera. This exclusive HP imaging technology optimizes each individual picture, automatically adjusting for difficult lighting conditions, showing greater detail in highlights and shadows, and ensuring proper contrasts and colors. The HP PhotoSmart 912 digital camera features HP imaging technology with 2.24-megapixel resolution and 36-bit color depth to deliver image sharpness that rivals that of expensive 3.2-megapixel cameras, a 2/3-inch professional frame transfer Charged Couple Device (CCD), a Pentax precision lens with 3x optical zoom, and wireless printing using JetSend infrared technology. The result is exceptional detail in 11 x 14-inch prints. Designed with the look and feel of an SLR camera, the HP Photosmart 912 digital camera features a 2-inch flip-up color LCD, allowing for easier framing of difficult shots. The camera also offers the same functionality one would expect from an SLR, including manual focus, exposure, and color and flash control.
