Carry Creativity Along With Sony's Digital Photo Printers |
Lightweight Picture Station(TM) Products Enhance and Personalize Your
Prints
SAN DIEGO, Jan. 31 /PRNewswire/ -- To simplify the process of printing
your digital pictures, Sony today introduced two photo printers with
one-touch printing and in-printer photo editing features.
The transportable PictureStation DPP-FP95 or the DPP-FP75 photo
printers can be taken to birthday celebrations, family reunions or
scrapbooking parties. They produce lab-quality 4 x 6-inch prints in about a
minute.
Get the Print You Want
Sony uses its BIONZ(TM) digital imaging processor in the DPP-FP95
printer to offer optimized performance with Sony's Cyber-shot(R) and Alpha
DSLR cameras. Each printer can access data in the picture files created
from Sony(R) digital still cameras and use this data to create the best
print based on the settings used when the photo was taken. This processor
also delivers more creative functions so you can add personal touches to
your printed photos without the need for a PC or editing software.
Create and Share
Creating keepsakes and scrapbooks becomes quick, simple and fun with
the intuitive user interface and the 3.6-inch adjustable LCD screen on the
DPP-FP95 digital photo printer. New scrapbooking templates offer several
different photo layouts and backgrounds so you can select what you like and
let the printer do the work.
To quickly correct common photo problems, the auto touch-up feature
corrects exposure, sharpens focus, removes red-eye and smoothes the skin
tones of people in your photos.
To share high-definition resolution photos before printing, the model
features an HDMI output that connects to a Sony BRAVIA(R) HDTV or other
compatible high-definition television set.
Editing Made Simple
The DPP-FP95 digital photo printer features a filter function that
allows the modification of the colors in your image. For instance, the
cross filter function can make the lights in a photo more dramatic while
the partial color filter function lets you keep the center of a photo in
full color and remove the color in other areas of the photo.
The paint filter function adjusts the image to appear as if were
printed on canvas, and the monochrome and sepia filters let you create a
more artistic black and white image from a color photo. The fish-eye filter
lets you add a new perspective to a portrait or landscape picture. In
addition, all images can be easily enlarged, cropped, and rotated from the
on-screen display.
Compatibility and Convenience
The DPP-FP75 model offers a new icon-based menu system on its large,
3.5-inch screen. This model has basic editing functions that allow you to
enlarge, reduce, rotate and adjust the color of your photos before you
print. It is compatible with several types of flash memory cards, including
Memory Stick PRO(TM), Memory Stick PRO Duo(TM), SD Memory Card, MMC, and
xD- Picture Card. The DPP-FP95 printer also supports Compact Flash(R) and
Microdrive flash memory cards.
Both new models are compatible with most PictBridge(R)-enabled cameras.
To ensure a continuous color tone and to protect your prints from fading,
both units also use dye-sublimation technology with SuperCoat 2(TM)
laminate, a durable coating that protects photos from water, heat and
fingerprints.
Sony offers several print packs of high-quality paper so printing with
the new photo printers costs as little as 29 cents per print.
Pricing and Availability
The DPP-FP95 and DPP-FP75 digital photo printers will be available in
April for approximately $200 and $150, respectively. The SVM- F40P and the
F120P printer paper packs are available for $20 and $35, respectively. Both
PictureStation models and the print packs can be purchased online at
http://www.sonystyle.com, at Sony Style(R) retail stores, at military base
exchanges and at authorized dealers nationwide.
