TechSmith Corp., the world's leading provider of screen capture and screen recording solutions, today announced the availability of Camtasia Studio 5.1, enabling customers to easily deliver their screen recordings (i.e., screencasts) to millions of iPhone and iPod touch users. The new release also features new editing capabilities that allow for the creation of even higher-quality and more engaging screencasts.


"Camtasia Studio has the sophisticated tools to create professional screencasts so our customers have the freedom to reach their audiences at their desks or on the go," said Troy Stein, Camtasia Studio product manager at TechSmith. "Camtasia Studio's robust, user-friendly editing tools set it apart from the competition, and the new additions extend that leadership. In addition, Camtasia Studio's SmartFocus technology delivers a crisp, clean viewing experience on the iPhone and iPod touch."

Every day, thousands of individuals in corporations and educational institutions, who aren't multimedia experts, use Camtasia Studio to deliver knowledge, information and ideas to their audiences in the form of engaging online presentations, demonstrations and interactive training videos.

Camtasia Studio automatically records exactly what users see on their computer screens, what they say, and how they interact with any website or Windows-based application such as PowerPoint. Individuals can then edit the interactive content and share it online in all popular streaming media formats, including Flash (SWF, FLV), fixed media such as CD or DVD, or portable media players such as the Apple iPod, iPhone and iPod touch.

In addition to support for the Apple iPhone and iPod touch, and streamlined workflow enhancements, Camtasia Studio 5.1 includes:

-- New easy-to-use tools to visually spotlight areas of importance and focus a viewer's attention

-- A third audio track to provide greater flexibility when adding background music to accompany narration so users can create even more engaging screencasts

-- More efficient tools to add and edit callouts and deliver more interactive and instructional elements

-- A customizable Camtasia theater that supports extended Flash formats, including FLV and ExpressShow, so presentations are more professional and easier for audiences to navigate

Camtasia Studio is integrated with TechSmith's new Screencast.com service, which is currently in open beta testing. The integration between Camtasia Studio 5.1 and Screencast.com facilitates fast and easy video sharing. Unlike other online video hosting services, Screencast.com retains the original quality, size, and professionalism of the uploaded screencast, and users retain complete ownership and sharing control over their content.

System Requirements and Availability

Camtasia Studio 5.1 supports Microsoft Windows XP and Vista with DirectX 9.0 or later. Additional digital video formats can be imported, including AVI, MPEG, MPG, and WMV. Web cameras and microphones for capturing audio and video are available for purchase separately. Camtasia Studio 5.1 has a suggested retail price of $299 with a 30-day free trial. A free, 60-day account for Screencast.com is also available. The software and recommended hardware can be purchased at http://www.techsmith.com.
