Note from da creator

I bought the MX-700 last week here in Germany for DM1400 (slightly used). I am VERY content with this cam. It has all the features I was looking for: small size, flash, high resolution, TV output. When I played around with the cam, I found the 16-CONT mode which allows to take 16 continuous shots in two or four seconds. Therefore this is great for creating animated gifs. After manually cropping out the 16 images, I knew that it was time for some coding. I found the GIFLIB on the web and yesterday evening I just had to do some minor hacking to write this program.

Enjoy!
