photography. The V550 and V530 cameras are equipped with 5-megapixel (MP) resolution

and photo `slideshows' on the cameras' high-resolution LCD screens.
The V Model V550 has a SCHNEIDER-KREUZNACH C-VARIOGON 3X optical zoom lens and

get prints from inkjet printers. Version 5.0 -- available as a free download from
