You’re Moving Up in the World
New
The MX-500 may look like a
luxury, but you’ll quickly
decide it’s a necessity. If you’re
preparing a presentation, you’ll
have the super-megapixel qual-
ity of a CCD with 1.5 million
square pixels. And for weekend
outings, it has the trim lines that
make digital imaging more fun.
The only question: How could
you ever get along without it?
