(Total pixels: 7.41 million)

Lens/Focal Distance .........

Eight lenses in seven groups, including

 

an aspherical lens

 

F2.8 (W) to 4 (T); f=7.1 (W) to 28.4mm

 

(T) (equivalent to approximately 33

 

(W) to 132 (T) for 35mm film)

Zoom ...................................

4X optical zoom; 4X digital zoom

 

(16X in combination with optical zoom)

Focusing .............................

Combination phase differential sensor

 

and contrast Auto Focus (AF) mode

 

(AF Area: Spot, Multi, or Free); Macro

 

mode; Infinity mode; Manual Focus;

 

focus lock

Approximate Focus Range (from lens surface)

Approximately 10cm to 50cm

 

(3.9˝ to 19.7˝) at wide angle

 

Approximately 40cm to 50cm

 

(15.6˝ to 19.7˝) at telephoto

Exposure Control

 

Light Metering .................

Multi-pattern by CCD

Exposure .........................

Program AE, Aperture priority AE,

 

Shutter speed priority AE, Manual

 

exposure

Exposure Compensation .....

–2EV to +2EV (1/3EV units)

Shutter ................................

CCD electronic shutter; mechanical

 

shutter,

 

Snapshot mode, BESTSHOT mode :

 

1/8 to 1/2000 second

 

Aperture Priority AE mode : 1 to

 

1/2000 second

 

Shutter Speed Priority AE mode,

 

Manual Exposure mode : BULB, 60 to

 

1/2000 second

 

• Shutter speed is different for the

 

following BESTSHOT scenes.

 

Night Scene: 4 to 1/2000 second

 

Fireworks: BULB, 60 to 1/2000

 

second

Aperture ..............................

F2.8, 3.2, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.6, 6.3,

 

7.1, 8.0

 

• Using optical zoom causes the

 

aperture to change.

 

• An aperture setting from F2.8 to 5.6

 

is possible in the Snapshot mode
