Question
Is it the digital camera, or a person's computer software that determines if they can send their pictures via a "slide show" in an email?   

Thanks - Dave

Answer
Hi Dave,

The camera just produces standard images. The following link will walk you through how to create a slide show if the end user doesn't know how to use the Windows slide show viewing feature (installed on all modern PC's). http://www.ehow.com/how_2030551_email-photo-propose.html

I would just suggest, however, that you send pictures as you normally would (in an email) and have the receiver save them to a folder. (If you're sending many images, create a zip file). Then, they can open the folder (or unzip the file using free WinZip software) and view the images within it using the built-in Microsoft slide show viewer.


I hope this helps.
