Minox DC4211 Gold -
A real gem from the house of MINOX:
The golden DC 4211 digital camera - crowned with sparkling diamonds
introduction
Compact digital lifestyle cameras are the current trend, big in performance
and at the same time boasting a miniaturized design, chic and sophisticated
with a unique touch – these features are not just characteristic desires of
the market, they also describe the well known company values of MINOX in
product design. And what other elements could underline these values better
than brilliant gold and sparkling diamonds!
With this new digital camera the optical specialists from Wetzlar once again
stand out from the rest, demonstrating a feeling for aesthetic detail,
competence in design and diligence in their choice of the most noble materials
– and without neglecting function and technical innovation. The golden DC 4211
is a treasure to put in your handbag or jacket pocket, a distinguished
accessory and a highlight - in every sense of the word – in the history of
MINOX GmbH.
The body of this wee camera in the latest slim-line look is coated in 24-carat
gold; three real 0.2 carat diamonds adorn the front of the body to create the
sparkling highlight.
The technical data of the camera also boast distinguished features: the 4.2
megapixel CCD sensor together with a fast MINOCTAR lens, 3 x zoom and
autofocus provide dynamic images with natural color rendition and pin-sharp
definition. The handling of the camera is particularly convenient thanks to
the short shutter release delay, automatic white balance ensuring the right
exposure and the large 2.0’’ TFT color monitor with brilliant and sharp image
display. The digital USB interface enables the convenient transfer of the
image files to the computer.
An exclusive leather case as well as a fine wooden box belong to the scope of
delivery of the MINOX DC 4211 along with wrist strap, a li-ion battery as
power source, a 32 MB SD card for storage and software for image processing on
a PC.
