A powerful 16.1 megapixel ½.3-inch Super HAD CCD image sensor helps you capture
gorgeous images with superb contrast and clarity down to the finest detail. With
16.1 megapixels, you can create stunning, photo-quality prints up to A3+
(13x19-inch) size, or crop your images and still come away with high resolution
shots.

2.7-inch Clear Photo LCD display (230k pixels)
2.7-inch (230K pixels) Clear Photo LCD display features sharp, natural color
that makes it easy to compose shots, read menus, and view photos, even in bright
sunlight.
|
720p MP4 HD Movie Mode9
In 720p MP4 movie mode the camera shoots 1280 x 720 high definition movies at 30
fps, which is the format when working with a PC. Users will create high quality
movies with full use of optical zoom in files small enough to transfer to

Photobucket and YouTube. (Compatible computer with internet capability required)

Sweep Panorama Mode
Reach beyond the traditional wide angle lens, and capture more breathtaking
shots with Sweep Panorama Mode. Simply press the shutter button and sweep the
camera in the desired direction and the camera continuously shoots at a high
speed, then seamlessly stitches the images together with automatic position
adjustment to create one stunning panoramic image. Available in wide and
ultra-wide options, the camera can take panoramic shots of up to 235 degrees.
Now capturing wide landscapes is as easy as press and sweep.
|
 |
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization uses a built-in gyro sensor to detect
camera shake and automatically shifts the lens to help prevent blur without
sacrificing image quality.
|
 |
Intelligent Auto Mode
Unlike traditional auto mode, Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode thinks for you,
recognizing scenes, lighting conditions, faces, and adjusts settings resulting
clear images, faces with natural skin tone and less blur. Take advantage of all
the technology without leaving Auto mode. Kids on the playground, landscape
shots, a beautiful flower or an indoor birthday party; result in clear images
without leaving auto mode.
|
Soft Skin Mode
Your portrait subjects will thank you for this. Soft Skin mode recognizes skin
tones and reduces the appearance of blemishes and wrinkles without affecting the
rest of the shot.
|
Natural Flash
Conventional point-and-shoot camera flash shots just don't capture colors the
way the eye sees them. Natural Flash mode takes a reference shot without flash
and then uses that reference to correct the color, for far more lifelike images.
|
Self-Portrait Timer
Self-Portrait Timer helps take the guesswork out of self portraits by utilizing
Face Detection technology to recognize when your face enters the frame. Once the
camera detects your face, it triggers a 2-second timer, and then snaps a
picture.
|
In camera guide
Take all the guesswork out of photography with the in camera guide. Its
convenient step by step instructions lead you to the perfect shot.
|
 |
Face Detection technology
Face Detection technology detects up to eight individual faces and adjusts
focus, exposure, and white balance to help deliver crisp, properly lit images of
family and friends.
|
 |
Smile Shutter technology
Smile Shutter technology captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply press
the Smile Shutter button and the camera does the rest. You can also select adult
and child priority and indicate the degree of Smile Detection Sensitivity.
Intelligent Scene Recognition can now be used together with Smile Shutter mode
when the Intelligent Auto mode is on. This means that beautiful smiles can be
captured with settings optimized for the particular scene, even in difficult
conditions such as twilight and backlighting.

Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens with 25mm wide 5x
Optical Zoom
The high-performance Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 5x optical zoom lens brings distant
subjects closer for video recording as well as for outdoor, sports, and travel
photos, and Close Focus shoots close-ups up to just under ½-inch from the
subject. A wide angle of 25mm wide-angle lens allows you to take wider shots of
the scene or group in crowded spaces.
|
Anti-blink Function
It’s frustrating to think you’ve captured that perfect shot, only to review it
later and discover one of your subjects blinked just as you pressed the shutter.
The Anti-blink function works to help counter blinking and squinting. When the
camera is set to Soft Snap, the Anti-blink function captures two images,
recording only the photo with less squinting. If a blink is detected in other
shooting modes, a warning will be displayed after you take the shot.
|
Dynamic Range Optimizer Standard and Plus
Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO) Standard and Plus uses a sophisticated algorithm
to help recover shadows and highlights. The result is more natural images with
clearer details that more closely match what your naked eye sees. DRO is
particularly effective when shooting backlit portraits or any scene with a
dramatic contrast between background and foreground lighting. DRO Plus allows
for even greater optimization by analyzing each region of an image and
performing additional image processing.
|
 |
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode automatically detects eight different
types of scenes and, within just 1/30th of a second, selects the appropriate
camera settings: Backlight, Backlight Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait,
Twilight using a tripod, Portrait, Landscape and macro. iSCN has two modes: Auto
and Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera takes a single shot using the optimal
settings. In Advanced Mode, the camera takes a photo with the optimal settings
and, if in difficult lighting (low light or back light) immediately takes a
second photo with another optimized setting so you can choose which to keep.
|
 |
High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200)
High ISO allows for faster shutter speed, so you can take photos indoors or in
low light without the need for a flash. In addition to High Sensitivity Mode
(ISO), you can select up to seven ISO settings (Auto, 125, 200, 400, 800, 1600,
3200) when shooting in Program Auto Mode to adjust sensitivity to your shooting
conditions.
|
Easy Shooting Mode
With Easy Shooting Mode, even beginners can take great photos. In Easy Shooting
Mode, easy-to-understand basic instructions are displayed on the LCD screen and
the camera switches to all automatic settings, removing several function choices
and allowing you to focus on just your subject. Since this mode works together
with Intelligent Scene Recognition, the camera selects the optimum setting for
each scene. In addition the easy mode simplifies preview mode.
|
In-Camera Retouching Tools
Retouch and enhance your photos on the go with in-camera Trimming, Red-Eye
Correction, and Unsharp Masking functions.
|
PHOTOMUSIC
PHOTOMUSIC combines images with music (4 tracks, 5 minutes per track) to produce
fun and entertaining slide shows with standard visual effects (Simple,
Nostalgic, Active, and Stylish). Select from pre-loaded tracks on the camera or
transfer your own from your compatible computer (sold separately).
