Introduction 13
Using the PowerMac/PowerPC or Microsoft Windows
software provided with the camera, you can view the pictures
taken with the PDC-3000 camera, optimize them for a
selected monitor or printer, and transfer them to the
computer. You can then use an image-processing application
to edit, save and print the pictures.
When the camera is connected to your computer, you can
control the camera and take pictures via the computer
keyboard and mouse. This is useful when the camera is used
in a stationary setup.
