With a large 2.5" Epson LCD, the compact Epson L-500V digital camera was designed with Epson's exclusive Photo Fine LCD technology for unbeatable clarity and color. Now, it's easy to capture and view photos like never before. And, with 5.0-megapixel resolution, it's a snap to get brilliant shots for crystal-clear enlargements. Best of all, with a 3x optical zoom and 4x digital zoom, this digital camera won't miss a moment. It shoots up to three photos per second until the optional high-speed memory card is full.

For that extra special touch, Epson PRINT Image Framer adds fun photo frames at the touch of a button - over 100 frames are available to choose from. Add a frame before a photo is captured, or before it's printed on a supported printer - all without affecting the original image! This point-and-shoot digital camera even records video clips with sound for up to 30 seconds. And, it includes a convenient rechargeable battery and charger.

When it's time to print, the Epson L-500V prints directly to select Epson printers. With the large LCD and convenient Print button, users can quickly and easily select specific photos. And, they'll get the best possible prints automatically from PRINT Image Matching-enabled printers.
