Finally a Digi Cam has graced the Chief's Quarters! I got one for Melinda on sale at the exchange and gave it to her for an early X-mas present. This way she can take pictures of the Kid's parties etc and have it for Christmas Eve at her sister's house. Of course I have to learn how to operate it so I can teach her. I can now practice (ulterior motive) taking pics of the "in work" models and my finished work bench. Do you think she'll catch on???
I do have a couple questions.......
1) Whats the cable thinggie that came in the box for?
2) Where do the pictures come out?
3) What is a Pixel? (Mine has 5.1 Mega of them)
4) Why isn't there any music or movie on the CD thinggie that was in the box with the cable thinggie?
5) Who's coming over to my house to teach ME how to use this thing?LOL

P.S. Just cause my rate is AT don't mean I are one! Now where's my coffee cup!?!

After you take the disc out you take it to the darkroom to develope it then hang them up to dry.

Seriously ... without knowing what kind of camera you have we'd have to guess at the answers so some question.
5.1 megapixels is kinda like resilution, the amount of information the picture has, more is better.
Don't know what the cable thingy is, likely USB or Firewire. might be Pay Per View but who knows?
If you camera is like mine a Sony CD300 you don't need the cable, it burns start to CD-R
Not coming over unless you pay airfare WA is long way from here.

Anywho, if it has a disc (Mini CD-R) you just pop the pic in the CD-R or DVD drive and like magic they appear on the screen after you open the files. Program like Picture-It or a 1000 others. XP has it own picture viewer built in.

Hey ZZZ,

Can you spell E.M.I.? How about Buffer Duty???
Seriously, I had downloaded info on 6 different cameras and gave the info to one of the AT1s that work with me and asked him to explain all the particulars. I got the Sony Cibershot DSC-P93. Been readin the owners manual since friday night and just found out why all the pictures but the last one weren't saved, something about Formatting the Memory Stick. Oh well I'll muddle through. I guess I should have been more "Adamant" about being a Mess Specialist 22 years ago! Cheers!

P.S. I'll need help when it comes time to post the pictures to Armorama.
Also, my Mom passed away long BEFORE digi cams were invented,
