Product Description
The eyemodule digital camera expands the usefulness of the Visor, turning it into an image capture device for business or pleasure. The eyemodule digital camera captures images in color or black and white using a low-power CMOS imaging array. Once inserted into the Visor, the eyemodule adds only 15 mm to the length and adds no thickness and practically no weight to the Visor. Install the included software on your Windows or Macintosh computer to automatically save images as JPEGs then e-mail and print your images.A Visor Deluxe, Platinum, or Prism with 6 MB free memory can hold more than 625 small black and white images (at 160x120 pixels), over 156 large black images (320x240 pixels) or over 32 color images (320x240 pixels, color images are gray scale when viewed on the visor).

Talk about instant gratification: attach the eyemodule to your Handspring Visor and you've got yourself a cool little digital camera. The eyemodule will capture photos in two sizes, in color or black and white, plus it can sync up with your Mac or PC, letting you download your little masterpieces for posterity. Getting started with the eyemodule is as simple as sliding it into your Springboard expansion slot and turning it on--that's it. In order to start synching your images with your PC, though, you must install the eyemodule software from the accompanying CD-ROM. Mac users will also have to download a patch from the eyemodule Web site, but it's a speedy process that won't take more than a couple of minutes. Once the software is installed, you're good to go. The eyemodule will hold up to 25 color images at 320 x 240 pixels, in 5 MB of free space on your Visor (and we even found that we could hold a few more than that). It will also hold up to 125 320 x 240 black and white images, or 500 small ones (at 160 x 120 pixels). The pictures are really on the tiny side, especially the ultratiny black and white ones, but we liked the way the size and color makes them kind of kitschy and cool. Image quality is not outstanding and is certainly not close to what you would get from even a semiprofessional digital camera, but it's definitely good enough to entertain friends and capture odd moments. In color shots, the lighting leans toward the dramatic, with dark shadows and bright colors. Since there's no flash, you'll need to make extra sure that you're balancing the light. The viewfinder on the Visor screen will show you what you're shooting in black and white, and if you don't like the shot when you're done, you can simply erase it from the handheld and try again. The interface on the Visor is incredibly simple and intuitive--it consists of a capture mode, list mode (of collected shots), display mode, and a preferences screen, where you can change the resolution and capture settings. Overall, don't expect to take award-winning photographs. The eyemodule is great, though, as a fun toy for the Visor. --Ara Jane Olufson Pros:
- Stores quite a few pictures
- Coolness factor is high
- Ultraportable
- Intuitive interface
