Fujifilm introduces its first universal cradle system, the CP-FXA10 Picture Cradle, which is compatible with Fujifilm's new line of FinePix A-series digital cameras. The cradle faciliates easy image downloads, power recharging, PC-Cam mode, and also acts as a video platform when connected to a television set. The optional universal Picture Cradle is customized for each camera through the use of adapters that come with each of the compatible cameras - the FinePix A205, A210 and A310. The universal CP-FXA10 Picture Cradle allows users to quickly download images through USB port connections, making it easy to store and share digital images electronically. The cradle's smart power system offers a two-hour recharge time for the FinePix A-series optional NH-10 Ni-MH battery pack. The cradle recognizes alkaline batteries, and shuts off the recharger mode, protecting the camera and safeguarding the consumer. In addition, the cradle may be used in PC-Cam conferencing mode, and can be connected to other FinePix users through the FinePix Viewer 4.0 software package included with all new Fujifilm FinePix digital cameras. Fujifilm FinePix A-series digital cameras capture AVI Motion JPEG movie clips that can be replayed for friends and family when using the CP-FXA10's Picture Cradle's video out port. By connecting to a television set, the movies can be enjoyed on a full screen, and easily recorded with a VCR.
