This camera will provide simple enjoyable projects

--This camera is advertised for its lapse-time (automatic spaced intervals between exposures) capability. Its name (PlantCam) could give the impression that its only use is for seeing a bud flower plant or garden grow "high speed" compressing hours days or weeks into a few minutes. But it can be used with delight in many other nature-situations with satisfaction showing "sped-up replay" in the motions of clouds shadows animal intra-flock associations indoor flower turning snow melting and even things like recording the development of a drawing construction what people mostly look at in a store window and on and on. The camera works fine with variable time selections a laser pointer for down to 11 inch close-up work a view finder for distant projects several levels of resolution date-time imprint and more. I have viewed the picture results with Windows Picture Manager finding the filmstrip view nice for speeding through the sequence. In Windows Movie Maker I can move what might be hundreds of pictures to its story board and play the changes as a sort of movie. I also have the company's BirdCam and get incredible bird closeups. The cameras are simple to operate with almost intuitive control layout but I recommend you work through the carefully written and adequate manual with camera in hand several times. For a number of times I was overlooking the last step that is turn the dial to "auto" before setting the camera on the tripod or ground for its shooting. I am convinced this camera would be great for an adult to use in collaboration with a youngster in discovery activity. I know I have found its pictures excellent and intriging.More detail ...
