New cameras with "eBay mode"


Casio has announced that its new and tiny Exilim digital cameras, the Z60, the Z600, and the Z850, have an interesting new feature: eBay mode. All three cameras can be set to take photographs specifically for eBay auctions. The photos are immediately resized inside the camera to fit in a standard eBay product listing. This special eBay mode is a first for digital cameras, although most digital cameras have low-resolution or VGA image settings that can produce similar results.

Here's a link to a review of these new cameras by ZD Publishing. I don't own one and can't comment on this new feature, but thought it was interesting as a measure of how much the web, and eBay in particular has affected our lives.
