DUALPIX DUAL MODE CAMERA
London, September 2-4, 2001 - ECTS Booth #1632 - Hercules, a world leader in
digital imaging, today announces its first pocket-design dual-mode camera,
including all the functions of a high-end PC camera, a Digital Still Camera
and a video-clip camera.
Hercules Dualpix is a user-friendly detachable product that you can take
away and use for capturing your best vacation moments or favourite family
events. It offers top quality still images in 1027 x 768 and 640 x 480
