depends on the quality setting that you selected
for the photos in your camera.
The photos can be displayed on a video monitor
(television) or a high-resolution VGA monitor /
flat-panel display or video projector.

Photo-Studio 2 allows you to archive and
organize your digital photos easily in a
multilevel directory system and lets you view
them quickly in a preview mode. You can
eliminate image errors, crop your photos, make
color corrections, create collages and print them
out, create animated sequences across a photo,
design a presentation, and much, much more.
You can let your imagination run wild!

Afterwards, you can view your edited photos
on a television. You can even show them as a
presentation using a video projector.
In addition, from your photos, collages and
animations you can create scenes and insert
them into the storyboard using SMART EDIT.
From the scenes you then create a presentation
by inserting effects and audio clips. Finally,
assuming you have a DVD writer and the DVD-
Arabesk software, you can burn a DVD.

If you are working with MacroSystem Louvre
without SMART EDIT; then please consult the
separate Louvre manual on how you can create
a DVD from your presentation. Of course, with
MacroSystem Louvre you are also able to put
effects and audio into your presentation.

You can print your results with Photo-Studio 2
assuming you have an appropriate printer (see
section 3.1 Installation for Casablanca).

2.2 Operation using the trackball

Photo-Studio 2 can be operated with the
trackball supplied with the device.

If your device has been delivered with a trackball
with 4 buttons (see picture), then all buttons can
be used with Photo-Studio 2.

The small left and right buttons have
different functions that are explained in the
corresponding chapters.

If your trackball has only 2 buttons, then it can
still be used to operate Photo-Studio 2 with all
functionality.

Please consult section 5.5.2 for instructions on
how to configure the trackball buttons.

If you own a MacroSystem Louvre, then please
read the appropriate part of the Louvre manual
on how to use the trackball.

3 Installation / Starting the

program

A VGA monitor will provide a calmer picture
of the menus and photos. You must change

In this menu you have the option of choosing
between the Video 4:3 and Video 16:9 settings
as well as between different VGA settings.
