Key Features
Wide-angle zoom lens can capture wide-angle pictures
This camera has a compact body only 25 mm thick, featuring a 24-mm* (Wide-angle) to 72-mm* (Telephoto) 3× optical zoom lens that covers a wide range of shooting. The wide-angle lens is great for capturing buildings, landscape scenes, group photos, and more.
*Equivalent to that on a 35mm camera
Camera shake correction function reduces blurring (P.106)
The camera comes with a camera shake correction function to allow you to take clearer pictures with minimized blurring even indoors, at night and in other situations where camera shake may occur.
Variety of accessories for greater creative expression (P.16)
Use the camera with the optional hood & adapter and 19-mm wide conversion lens to capture even wider angles. Enhance your photographic experience with a variety of optional accessories, including an LCD
viewfinder and cable switch. The camera is equipped with a hot shoe to allow you to use an external flash.
Macro shooting at 1 cm (P.43) and close-up flash shooting at 15 cm (Telephoto) or 20 cm (Wide-angle) (P.44)
The unsurpassed macro shooting function allows you to capture details from a very close distance at only 1 cm. The camera also has a built-in flash for close-up shots at 15 cm (Telephoto) or 20 cm (Wide-angle). This combination gives you clear macro shots even under low light conditions.
Aperture priority mode, manual exposure mode, and program shift mode for fine-tuned adjustments
You can manually set the aperture value and shutter speed. This small, compact, and lightweight camera has advanced modes that rival those of digital SLR cameras.
Power your camera in one of three ways (P.25)
You can power the camera in one of three ways for convenient shooting anytime, anywhere. Use the supplied large-capacity rechargeable battery for long periods of shooting and playback. Use commercially available alkaline batteries when traveling with your camera. Use the convenient AC adapter for transferring data to a computer.
10.01 megapixel CCD and RAW mode for high-quality shooting (P.80)
The camera has a CCD with 10.01 million effective pixels to ensure high-resolution images. In addition, you can use RAW mode to save the raw picture data (as a .DNG file). This provides less image quality deterioration
than JPEG files and easier image processing on a computer. A JPEG file based on the DNG file is recorded at the
same time.
Up-down dial and ADJ. lever for faster and easier operations (P.20)
You can use the up-down dial and ADJ. lever to quickly and easily make the shooting settings and various menu operations. You can also press the ADJ. lever to easily select ADJ. mode (P.64) and make various shooting settings.
30 fps or 15 fps high-quality movies with sound (P.109)
Record high-quality movies with 640 × 480 pixels at 30 frames per second and with full sound.
Easily customize your favorite shooting settings with my settings mode (P.76)
You can customize two groups of settings, and then turn the mode dial to MY1 or MY2 to shoot with those registered settings.
Skew correction mode helps straighten skewed images (P.46)
In skew correction mode, a rectangular object shot at an angle can be straightened to look as if it were shot squarely. With the simple touch of a button, you can straighten skewed images of objects such as a message board, a display panel, or a name card.
USB cable enables instant transfer of camera data to a computer
Install the provided software on your computer and then simply connect the camera to your computer with the provided USB cable to automatically transfer images to your computer. The camera is compatible with USB 2.0 for high-speed data transfers. (Your computer must also be compatible with USB 2.0 to take advantage of this feature.)
Irodio Photo & Video Studio software for browsing, viewing, and editing still images and movies (P.166)
This bundled software enables you to view, organize, and edit shot images. You can also use the video editor function to create movies using still images, video clips, audio, and music files.
Direct printing without the use of a computer (P.128)
A direct print-compatible printer can be connected to the camera with the USB cable to directly transfer images to the printer. This allows for easy printing without using a computer. You can also print reports.
