What is Picatoo?
Premium Online Photo Developing Service Takes Flight
The camera is no longer just the photographer's companion, it's everyone's indispensable accessory. Digital photography has become accessible to the general public since digital cameras became available in varied forms and different price ranges. Hence, the birth of a new trend.
Although digital photography has created a lifestyle of sharing and storing photos electronically, it hasn't eliminated the need for traditional prints. Nothing compares to an old-fashioned photo album filled with physical photographs. Passed around in family gatherings, exhibited in special events, these photos have a quality about them that is simply absent from digital images.
One offshoot of this trend has been the proliferation of websites created for digital photographs. Online photo services are no longer limited to photo storage and sharing, but some have extended their services to online photo developing as well. The convenience that these services offer is something that Picatoo would like to bring to the local market.
Launched this December 2006, Picatoo allows its users to develop their digital images from the comforts of their homes. Because Picatoo is a joint effort between Mozcom and Fuji YKL, photos are printed using the Fuji Digital Minilab Frontier developing system, a crystallization of Fuji film?s imaging technology. Together with Image Intelligence (tm), Fuji film's image correction technology, the customer is assured of optimum prints at reasonable prices.
The website boasts of a simple system with a user-friendly interface. Photos can be uploaded using a web browser and employing simple drag-and-drop operations.
