With its 2X optical zoom lens,3.2megapixels and the size of a credit card,the Canon Digital Power-Shot S230camera,introduced in September,2002,might strike some as a marvel.But the company is bet-ting that its new target market of young white-collar women,who have not been the primary buyers of dig-ital cameras,will love the tiny wonder for its look.
Inspired by companies like Nokia,which early on emphasized design in an effort to sell cellphones to the increasingly style-conscious public,camera makers,too,are now promoting their products as fashion accessories.Canon is among a growing number of manufacturers playing up not only the latest in fancy technology but also what marketers call the ’cool factor’,a combination of high-tech features and streamlined,compact design.
In its print and television ad campaigns,the Canon PowerShot dangles from a clothes hanger.’Stain-less steel goes with everything,’the copy reads.Casio,the maker of the Exilim,has taken a similar style.Its print ads show a photo of a fashionable young woman in jeans,her compact digital protruding from her hip pocket over the slogan ’No visible cameralines’.Now that digital technology is no longer a novelty,Sony is also seeking a new group of consumers,mostly women in their 20’s and early 30’s.And the latest of Sony’s print ads features a shapely blonde sheathed in a clingy black dress,an ATM-car-size CyberShot U suspended like a necklace.’It looks like cool jewelry,and that’s the point,’Jim Malcolm,Sony’s senior marketing manager for digital cameras,said.
