Features
 The
Optio E40 features the advanced Face-Recognition AF & AE function, which
automatically detects the position and lighting condition of the subject's face
and optimizes focus and exposure settings. As the result, you can always capture
the subject's smiling face in sharp focus and perfect exposure, with natural,
beautiful skin tones.
 When
the Optio E40 detects low-lighting conditions, its Digital SR system automatically
raises its sensitivity level to set a faster shutter speed. This allows you to
preserve images like a child's stage performance in sharp, bright images — even
when the stage is dimly lit and susceptible to camera shake and subject shake.
 When
you set the Optio E40 to the Auto Picture mode, the camera automatically selects
the most appropriate shooting mode for a given subject or scene. Thanks to this
user-friendly mode, you can capture clear, beautiful images, frame after frame,
with a single push of the shutter release button.
 Since
the Optio E40 is powered by world-standard AA-size batteries, replacement batteries
can be easily obtained almost anywhere in the world. A fresh pair of AA-size
lithium batteries gives you approximately 640 images,* while a fresh pair of
AA-size alkaline batteries offers approximately 240 images.*
* The numbers of recordable images were measured using testing conditions specified by the CIPA standards.
This may vary depending on shooting conditions.
8.1 Effective Megapixels for High-Quality,
Fine-Detailed Images
With 8.1 effective megapixels, the Optio E40 reproduces subjects faithfully
and brilliantly, including the delicate texture of skin and hair. Combining a
3X optical zoom lens with 4X digital zoom capability, you can also magnify your
subject up to 12 times to capture fine-detailed images.
Large, Easy-to-Hold Grip for Holding Comfort
and Fatigue-Free Shooting
Ergonomically designed and perfectly sized, the Optio E40’s grip assures a
firm, comfortable hold over a long period of time, even for first-time digital
camera users.

PictBridge Compatibility for Direct Printing Convenience
 When
connected to a PictBridge-compatible printer via the included USB cable, the
Optio E40 offers convenient direct printing, eliminating the need to transfer
image data to your PC. This direct-printing convenience is available with any
PictBridge-compatible printer, regardless of make or model.
 Compatibility
with Exif Print, PRINT Image Matching and DPOF The Optio E40 is compatible with Exif Print and PRINT Image Matching III

imprint information.
