This all-in-one package lets you start to enjoy digital imaging without needing to purchase additional options. The QV-2100 comes complete with PC link software and a USB cable as standard. There is no need to purchase a memory card because images are stored directly into built-in flash memory, making this the perfect choice for a first-time digital camera user.

Images can be transferred quickly and easily to a computer using the bundled image transfer software and special USB cable. Other bundled applications help to take much of the trouble out of attaching images to e-mail, printing images, and creating image albums.
