Main Features: The PC-CAM 920 Slim has a tiny form factor which measures only 85 (W) x 18 (D) x 56 (H) mm, and weighs just 88g (without battery and SD card). With its sleek silver finishing, the PC-CAM 920 Slim is complete with a 2.0-Megapixel CMOS sensor and a 4X digital zoom which not only provides high quality 3.0 Megapixels still images by interpolation but also makes shooting faraway images a snap.

Users can compose their shots through the 1.5-inch TFT LCD Display. In addition, the PC-CAM 920 Slim is fitted with a fixed focus lens that enables users to frame and focus shots in Normal (1.2 m to infinity) as well as Macro (15 - 20 cm) modes. With its Macro mode activated, users can snap objects from as close at 15 cm to capture the most intricate details.

Users who wish to control their photography settings will be able to do so using controls such as exposure compensation which allows fine-tuning of the image's exposure under different lighting conditions, four different white balance preset modes - Auto, Sunny, Tungsten and Fluorescent, as well as Auto/Off Flash modes.

Doubling as a web camera, the PC-CAM 920 Slim produces impressive video quality at 640 x 480 resolutions, and compatible with popular Instant Messaging software such as MSN Messenger, NetMeeting and Yahoo Messenger.
