 Acer recently revealed a new 8 megapixel digital camera, the CP-8660. The design is meant to look more like a slightly more classic film camera, but that does not mean it is not an impressive device.
The Acer CP-8660, other than its 8 MP resolution, has a 6x optical zoom, and a 8.5x digital zoom. The camera is also equipped with Anti-shake DSP (Digital Signal Processor) technology which compensates for hand movements. On the back of the camera you will find a 2.8″ LCD with what is called low temperature poly silicon that enhances the overall brightness and contrast of the screen.
Acer put a slim 25 MB of memory onboard, and while that is not enough to take many pictures, it is better than many other cameras on the market that don’t offer any. Of course you can always get an SD card and expand it up to 1GB. The camera has dimensions of 96 x 61 x 29 mm and weighs about 180 grams without its battery. It also includes a video recording mode at maximum 640 x 480 pixel resolution at 30 fps. |
