Overview

The Vivitar VEC S124 digital camera is a compact, user-friendly device designed primarily for casual photography. It features a 2.1-megapixel CCD sensor, allowing for moderate resolution photo captures suitable for everyday use and small prints.

The camera is equipped with a fixed focus lens with a 42mm focal length equivalent, which simplifies operation but limits zoom capabilities. It features digital zoom up to 4x, offering some flexibility in framing shots without optical zoom.

Image storage is handled via an internal memory of approximately 4MB with support for SD memory cards, enabling expanded storage capacity. The camera includes a 1.5-inch LCD screen to preview images and navigate menus.

For connectivity, the Vivitar VEC S124 uses USB 1.1 for image transfer, compatible with most computers at the time. Power is supplied by two AA batteries, making it convenient and easy to replace power sources while in the field.

The device supports standard JPEG file format for images, which is widely compatible for viewing and printing. Its simple menu system and automatic exposure settings aim to provide straightforward photography experiences for beginners.

Its overall lightweight and compact design make the camera easy to carry, though video capabilities are absent, focusing purely on still image capture.
