Compact enough to slip into your shirt pocket, the Toshiba PDR-2300 still packs in the performance with a 2.0 megapixel sensor that captures images with a resolution of up to 1600 by 1200 pixels, allowing sharp and colorful prints of up to 8 by 10 inches. The 3x optical zoom and 2x digital zoom, for a overall zoom of 6x, gives an impressive range of shooting options. You can frame your shots with the traditional viewfinder eyepiece or the large 1.6-inch LCD monitor, which can also display stored photos and shooting modes. All of the main functions such as exposure, flash, white balance, and focus are fully automatic, and the white balance can be set manually for accurate color tones. The 2300 can even shoot up to 15 seconds of AVI video at a resolution of 320 by 240 pixels. Use the video out and view your work on any NTSC or PAL television.
The 2300 takes 4 AA batteries, which have an ordinary life of up to 100 shots with flash and 150 without. Photos can be stored on the internal 8 MB memory, which holds 15 pictures on normal settings, or any Secure Digital memory card for more capacity. Since the 2300 is USB compatible, hookup and file transfer to a computer is fast and easy. Also included are batteries, USB cable and driver, video cable, hand strap, lens cap, and photo editing software.
