![]() ![]() There’s the usual 10-second setting, then a two-second timer, there’s then a neat couple’s timer, where it snaps only when two people get close together in front of the lens and you get a clever group timer that can be set to fire the shutter at a predetermined number of people, up to four.Īnother plus is the all-metal camera body, even the sliding front panel is metal, so the camera’s 145g weight (with card and battery on board) still makes the camera feel substantial when hefted in the hand, but with its tiny 97 x 58 x 20mm dimensions, means you can literally pop this camera into the smallest of pockets. The aforementioned back plate controls include a four-way jog button that can be used to activate the flash, exposure compensation, macro shooting and self timer modes, of which you get a nice array of options. Queue a short burst of unwanted video! Once you get used to that handling “foible” it’s a breeze to use. A set of modern blue backlit controls give the camera an air of exclusivity and looks attractive to boot controls are simple enough to use as well.Ī shutter button on the top is joined by a rather small direct video mode button, but because the camera’s front lens cover sliding panel is also the on/off button, there’s a tendency (at first) to press the video button thinking it’s the on/off button. The camera comes in a variety of colours too pink, purple, jade, blue, white and black. The camera has HD video capability but only with a maximum of the 720P variety with mono sound, but there’s no HDMI out port there is a combined USB 2.0 port for power, charging and connectivity to, say a TV and computer, but the computer/power lead included in the box cannot connect the camera to a TV the cable for that is a disappointing optional extra. That and activating the various power saving features, such as lowering the LCD brightness (though that has its concomitant issues around viewing in brighter conditions) turning on the display’s power save mode (reduces the frame rate), turning off the (digital only, so no optical) Image Stabilisation and setting the auto-off timer to the minimum of two minutes, all help. However, turning the flash off helps and I found it best to switch the camera out of it’s – otherwise effective – Auto SR (automatic scene recognition mode, which can detect six different scenes: Portrait, Backlit Portrait, Macro, Landscape, Night Portrait and Night scene) setting and into Program, which allows you to deactivate the flash and stops it from charging automatically each time you switch the camera on. I found it proved much less than that however, with the battery warning first showing at around 120-shots, with only minimal flash use and reviewing of images, so something of a disappointment at that point. In the mean-time, tips, hints, and experiences that any of you have had with any of this particular hardware is greatly appreciated.There’s a 29 MB of internal flash memory with external storage coming in the shape of SD/SDHC/SDXC media housed in a card slot alongside the NP-45A lithium-ion battery – a battery that’s good for a rather miserly 220 shots according to Fuji. Have any of you experimented with some of the wiimote multitouch white board hacks, such as If I get this projector working, I believe that may be my next toy. They should be arriving in the mail within a week or two. So for the low price of $127.22 I've purchased a few new toys. Does any one have any experiences with this particular panel? I haven't been able to track down very much information on it. I could only find a Z110, I'm assuming that it isn't dramatically different. I was looking for a Z115, as I have read many good things about them. Seems pretty common, cheap bulbs are definitely a big plus.Ģ. The cheapest 4000 lumen projector I could find. Given my relative noobness, I took the economically painless route and got some lower end stuff to experiment with before I go crazy with it.ġ. ![]() After lurking around this lovely diy projector forum for a few days, I finally hopped on e-bay made a few purchases.
