Shake-free function The BenQ DC C530/C630 features a shake-free function allowing the user to take clear and precise shots without any distortion. This function can be selected directly from the function wheel allowing the user to capture shake-free images.

High ISO Portrait function Both cameras also boot the High ISO Portrait function (ISO 800~1000) which enables users to take ambient photos indoor and in dimmed light environments without the need of using flash.

Auto Exposure Bracket In addition, the Auto Exposure Bracket (AEB) allows the user to take three continuous photos with different exposure value (EV) to get the best shooting condition for the best picture quality results.

Printer Mode The Printer Mode function is an easy way for users to directly print photos out via the compatible printer (with the PictBridge feature which enables you to connect directly to your printer) without connecting to the computer first.

The BenQ DC C530/C630 will be available on the market in April 2006.
