SIC 3608S/G7
Thank you for purchasing the Philips SIC 3608S/G7 digital
camera where we encourage you to...
“do the swivel!”
Capturing photos your way.
Enjoy the independence of snapping perfect self-portraits the
first time. Simply swivel the lens to the back to preview your
shot in the LCD display to make sure everyone is in the frame,
say cheese and snap away. Or swivel the lens to the front and
side to take photos from different angles. Be creative!
