Canon, leader in photographic and imaging technology is pleased to announce ew bundles of selected digital cameras with the CP-200 Card Photo Printer. The special promotion packs are designed to increase awareness of Canon's direct photo printing. The promotion runs from October through December 2003 and will consist of two different Card Photo Printer CP 200 packs, one with the PowerShot A70 digital camera, and one with the PowerShot A300. The Card Photo Printer CP-200 connects via a USB cable directly to Canon digital cameras to produce photo prints without the need for a PC. A tiny mini-lab, the printer uses a dye-sublimation process to produce lab-quality photo prints with the same high-gloss look and feel as traditional silver-halide photo prints. With its petite design and a tiny footprint barely larger than the 4x6” photos it prints, the CP-200 is small enough to be kept in a drawer . PowerShot cameras Released in February this year, the PowerShot A300 and PowerShot A70 digital cameras both feature 3.2 Megapixel resolution, 5 point AiAF (Artificial intelligence Auto Focus) for lightning quick and accurate focus, capacity to shoot 180 second video clips, and Canon's patented DIGIC (Digital Image Core) processing for super-responsive shooting and excellent colour reproduction. Both cameras are equipped with a wide range of creative shooting modes, including sepia effect, black and white and extra vivid colours. The PowerShot A70 features a 3x optical zoom, 15 - 1/2000 second shutter speeds and 2.2 fps shooting.
Connect, Select, Print To print a photo, the camera is directly connected to the Card Photo Printer CP 200 with a standard USB cable supplied with the bundle. A simple menu on the camera allows print size, type and quantity to be selected. Within 85 seconds of selecting ‘print', the process is complete.
Regular photo feel The Card Photo Printer CP 200 builds up full-colour images by merging three separate colour layers (yellow, magenta and cyan) to reproduce photo-grade tones. A durable, high-gloss finish is added with a final protective layer. Print choices The printer offers a choice of borderless print sizes: the enduring and popular 4x6”, L-size, card size and mini-stickers. Personal postcards are now possible within 2 minutes of taking a photo, with pre-printing of postcard ruling on standard 4x6” media. To expand printing possibilities, an optional car cigarette-lighter adapter CBA-CP100 is available. Compatibility The Card Photo Printer CP 200 works with all of Canon's latest direct-print compatible range of digital cameras and all other PictBridge compatible cameras. PC/Mac drivers come as standard with both the PowerShot A70 and A300 enabling editing and printing via a computer as well as directly from the camera. Pricing, availability and reader enquiries Both bundles are available now: PowerShot A70 + CP-200 - £399 inc VAT PowerShot A300 + CP200 - £299 inc VAT
