Group 12 - Fuji Waterproof Camera

Revision as of 04:57, 21 November 2006

Executive Summary

Introduction

The Fuji Waterproof Disposable Camera is a product designed to be user friendly, simple and easy to use under harsh conditions. The camera works just like any other conventional film camera whereby light enters thru the main lens and the image taken gets exposed on a film. The only difference between a normal camera and the disposable camera is that the latter has no power source and all of the parts work mechanically. The other distinct difference is that it also has waterproofing capabilities up to a specfied depth. The disposable camera is design for a single use with the film providing 27 exposures per use. The design of the whole system makes the camera robust and tough for outdoor activities.
