Sony Intros DPP-FP70, DPP-FP90 Photo Printers

Sony DPP-FP70 & DPP-FP90 Photo Printers

There are two new photo printers from Sony, the DPP-FP70 and DPP-FP90 PictureStations featuring built-in carrying handles so you can take them anywhere. These photo printers offer some editing capabilities with a one-button print process; both churn out photos in less than a minute.

The DPP-FP90 printer has a 3.6-inch LCD screen that tilts and adjusts for easy viewing. The DPP-FP70 model features a 2.5-inch built-in viewing screen.

With their built-in displays, the new printers allow users to preview and edit photos before printing. They also offer the Auto Touch-up feature to correct common picture problems like exposure, focus and red-eye just by touching a button.

The same button gives users the ability to sharpen out-of-focus images by creating several simulations of camera lens movement, checking the contrast of each simulation and then selecting the best simulated image to improve the original photo for printing.

The DPP-FP90 ($200) and DPP-FP70 ($150) printers will be available in March.
