And theres no need to use a computer
One of the big advantages of digital photography is that you can print your own pictures at home and these days you dont need to own a computer to do it! Take the Epson PictureMate, its a breakthrough personal photo printer designed to be easy to use and to produce high quality photos conveniently at home by those who have little or no computer experience. Its described as the ideal solution for digital camera users looking for professional photo lab quality 10cm xl5cm photos that are affordable and long lasting and does away with the need for a computer or for the necessity to visit a photo lab, photo kiosk or online photo. Itll work with all of the usual memory cards and if you have a camera with a PictBridge facility itll print without being connected to a computer. Theres an optional Bluetooth feature so it will print pictures taken with the latest camera phones. The Epson Sylus Photo R300 is just the job for both the experienced digital photographer looking for the highest quality photo output and the amateur user who wants easy and convenient of printing. A second version of the Stylus Photo R300 has a 2.5ins colour monitor which will allow you to preview your pictures before you print them. And itll also print pictures from a camera phone. If you want to do a lot more than just print, the Stylus Photo RX620 will let you scan and copy photos, too, whether they are conventional prints or stored on a digital memory card. It will, incidentally, accept all of the popular types of memory card and you can transfer images, once scanned, back to the card. It also has a six colour, separate ink cartridge system and can scan and copy transparencies as well as prints. The Epson RX620 is a snip at only 199.00 including vat.
