February 7, 2006 — Orlando, Florida — Digital Foci announced today that it will be introducing at the Photo Marketing Association (PMA) Conference Picture Porter Elite portable digital photo album with 40GB and 80GB hard drives and a memory card reader. Featuring a large 3.6″ LCD for easy viewing, Picture Porter Elite lets you instantly and securely save and view digital photos and video on its hard drive wherever you go, so you can keep snapping away and stop worrying about limited memory card space on your digital camera.

Portable Digital Photo Album
With its high-capacity hard drive, you can now carry your collection of digital photos and video with you all the time right in your pocket and view them anywhere. While viewing photos on Picture Porter Elite’s bright LCD, you can rotate, zoom, pan, view EXIF information, and play picture slideshows. You can also connect Picture Porter Elite to a TV and share your photos and music with family and friends on a big screen in the comfort of your living room.

Especially valuable for vacations, trade shows, special events, parties, and for pro photographers who take and show a large number of photos, Picture Porter Elite saves photos on its hard drive, so you don’t have to lug around a heavy laptop on the road. Picture Porter Elite takes the worry out of losing precious photos stored on easily damaged memory cards. Its built-in memory card slots let you copy and archive photos directly from any digital camera memory card, without the need for cumbersome peripheral attachments or cabling.

Print without a Computer
Picture Porter Elite supports the PictBridge standard so you can print directly to any PictBridge compliant printer without a computer. All you have to do is connect Picture Porter Elite by USB to a PictBridge compliant printer and print photos as you view them on the Picture Porter Elite screen. Imagine the convenience of printing photos directly to your printer without the hassle of using a PC or complicated image-editing software!
