Bytes! Camera! Action!

Article Abstract:

Digital cameras, which take digital images that can be downloaded to a computer, edited and manipulated, can play a useful role in the UK construction industry. This technology is quite expensive, but the few consultants and contractors that have begun using it have mainly been enthusiastic. Digital cameras are easy to use, and some have additional features. The Sanyo digiCAM VPCX300, for example, has a smart media card that can be loaded with text to allow the camera to be linked to a projector or a television.
