Abstract
When a digital camera detects that it has been placed in a demo dock, it resets internal settings to demo defaults and may launch a point-of-purchase dock demo to attract attention. When a customer removes the camera from the demo dock, an interactive demo may begin. The demo may instruct the customer how to interact with the demo or end it. Once ended, the camera reverts to normal operation until replaced in the demo dock. Methods of using the dock and digital camera are also disclosed.
