You can send still photos and videos to anyone through e-mail and, as long as they have a relatively up-to-date computer system, they shouldn’t have a problem viewing them. However, to communicate in a two-way, real-time video conversation, you and the other participant must have compatible program software. Always check compatibility with the camera manufacturer before purchasing any video conferencing product. Minimum system requirements for e-mail software are AOL 5.0 or above, Microsoft Outlook Express or Netscape Mail.
