EpsonPhotoPC 750Z & Kenko 8X32 Telephoto

19 Jan 2000: I sold my Epson 600 and moved up to the EpsonPhotoPC 750 Zoom and it's a great camera. It may not be the highest resolution camera at 1.25 mbs but you can print out 8x10's clear as a bell. Like the Epson 600 it come's with an upload program that allow's you to upload all photo's scanned or taken with the camera back to the camera that you can play as a slide show or record onto a VCR tape. In the continous mode you can take up to 16 photo's in the 640x480 resolution in 8 seconds. (Good for action and sports.)

I purchased a Tiffen 2x telephoto lens and the adapter at DC-PRO which now give's me about 6X Zoom and in the Hypict mode it really brings it up close. The Tiffen adapter is made of a hard high quality Nylon like material and snaps onto the camera real snug. Although you can snap it off it's hard to do and according to the instructions they advise to just leave it on because it protects the zoom lens.

25 Apr 00 Update: My Kenko 8x32 came in last week which now gives me 24x with the Epson 3x zoom. There's no vignetting from about 1.5x to 3x which is about 8 thru 16 power (400-800mm 35mm equivalent). I've posted some examples of the zoom capabilities on PhotoPoint.com, I'll be adding more soon.

Epson 750z & Yukon spotting scope. I can get up to about 150x with the scope and 3x zoom on my camera. The 37MM adapter for the Kenko 8X32 fit the Scope perfect. I made the cable release bracket and brace for the scope from old RC Plane landing gear.

I purchased a 32MB card that combined with the 4MB internal storage enables me to take 523 standard, 157 high quality, 78 super high quality and or 52 Hypict photo's .

The PhotoPC 750Z also features a state-of-the-art Solar Assist panel. With Solar Assist, the 2" LCD monitor is illuminated by direct sunlight to conserve battery power. To further extend battery life, the Power Save mode automatically shuts down the LCD after each shot. Four rechargeable AA NiMH batteries and a fast, portable charger are included.
