Abstract
With the economic development and people’s living standards improved, the number of people having the economic strength to buy a digital camera is increasing, and digital camera requirements, such as manual adjustments, picture transfer will also be improved. Therefore, usability level as a vital important reference index is widely concerned by users. Our research is carried out with a camera called GR II, and we measured the main and specific functions of it through a series of tasks [1, 2]. Since it is a product for sale, we define our research as a summative usability assessment [3]. Using several analysis methodologies, we achieved our aim to find the most confusing part and problems of its function. Then, we try to give some recommendations and new insights according to the usability assessment results. Three types of participants were enrolled in our experiment, including novice, normal and expert [4, 5], which guarantee our experiment is credible.
