ENJOY YOUR PICTURES
Once you have downloaded your images into a computer, your photographic creativity is limited only by your
imagination. You can reorder, retouch and enhance any saved image. Merge them with other graphic
elements to design never-before-seen imagery, panoramic scenes and even movies. Create greeting cards,
calendars, catalogs, postcards and newsletters with brilliant color. You can even take your images into
virtual places and share them with friends and family through e-mail and Web sites. Produce slide shows,
visual presentations and screen savers. Because with an Olympus Digital Camera, you can do it all!
NOTES:
• To achieve best results when downloading images, it is recommended that you use either
the AC adapter or Olympus brand NiMH rechargeable batteries to ensure a consistent power
supply voltage.
• Olympus America Inc. strongly recommends using Nickel Metal-Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable "AA"
batteries in all Olympus Digital Cameras, as the systems' power requirements can be very
demanding. Depending upon the model purchased, your camera package may include NiMH
batteries. Olympus brand rechargeable NiMH batteries and AC Adapters are specifically designed
for use with Olympus Digital Cameras, and provide maximum life and system performance.
These items and other accessories are available separately or may be part of a value added accessory
kit available from your authorized Olympus dealer. You can purchase these items wherever Olympus
Digital Products are sold.
