Acer Goes For Cameras
Posted by Suhit Gupta in "NEWS" @ 05:00 AM
"Acer, a company known for continually pushing the boundaries of business and consumer hardware, has taken another step towards the forefront of the convergence market with the launch of the company’s first 8-Megapixel digital camera - the super-slim CR-8530 (91x57x27mm, 150g). A high quality camera with the ease-of-use of a point-and-shoot, the new silver-and-black CR-8530 typifies Acer’s ethos: high-end technology, attractive design, fully convergent with other consumer electronics devices and all at an affordable price £199 (inc. VAT)."
I am actually quite impressed with Acer's ever expanding directions for markets that they are trying to touch. They were already tops in motherboards, but then they moved to video cards, LCD monitors, TVs, and now cameras and I have very rarely heard of complaints about their products. Well, they recently launched their first 8-megapixel digital camera, with a sleek look and affordable $352 pricetag. The CR-8530 shoots up to 3264x2448 pixels and includes a 64MB SD card, 2.5-inch LCD display, 3x optical zoom lens, optical viewfinder and a built-in flash with different shooting modes.
