Noritsu to Provide Print Service for
Sony
“Sweep Panorama” Photos
|
|
Noritsu is pleased to announce its support for a new photo service that enables you to make prints from panorama images taken with the “Sweep Panorama” function available with Sony Cybershot digital still cameras (DSC－HX1 / DSC-TX1 / DSC－WX1).
In making this unique service available, we aim to offer everyone the chance to create prints in a size that cannot be made with home printers. Furthermore, retailers that offer this service will gain the advantage of broadening their service menu to include a new print service available only at retail, and this is sure to spark interest, which will result in more customer traffic. This service is scheduled to be provided in Japan. In addition to the Japanese market, the Sony “Sweep Panorama” Print Service is being considered for other markets also.
“Sweep Panorama” is a function that enables you to take high quality panorama photos by simply pushing the shutter button and moving the camera in a sweeping motion in a horizontal or vertical direction. |
