Advanced Panasonic Technologies Take Out the Shake

Jitter from shaky hands is far and away the biggest single cause of blurry shots. LUMIX cameras help solve this problem with advanced MEGA O.I.S. (optical image stabiliser) technology. A built-in gyrosensor detects any hand-shake and a signal is relayed to a high precision control circuit built into the Venus Engine II LSI, which instantly calculates the compensation needed. A linear motor then shifts the O.I.S. lens as necessary to guide incoming light from the image straight to the CCD. Panasonic's highly evolved Venus Engine II LSI makes this process even faster and more accurate. This helps extend the MEGA O.I.S. correction range all the way to 3 or 4 steps below (slower than) the shutter speed that is generally considered to be the limit for handheld shooting, which is calculated by the formula "1/focal length (1 divided by the focal length)." In addition to giving you clear, sharp shots, MEGA O.I.S. also expands your shooting possibilities.

The O.I.S. lens is driven by a linear motor, providing quick, precise optical correction for the hand- shake detected by the gyrosensor.

Two Image Stabilisation Modes to Meet Different Shooting Needs

In new LUMIX models there are two different O.I.S. modes to meet different shooting needs. This image stabilisation system is a Panasonic original. It was developed to help compensate for camera movement, but its main goal is to achieve the highest possible image quality in the resulting photo. MEGA O.I.S. helps you get the clearest shots possible.

Compensates for jitter all the time.

Mode 2

O.I.S. lens moves continuously.

In this mode, image stabilisation is continuously on. It helps you to compose shots in the LCD monitor and to see the focusing condition more clearly.

O.I.S. lens remains near

the image centre until you shoot.

This image stabilisation mode, a Panasonic original, was developed to help you obtain some of the clearest photographs possible, despite unintentional hand-shake. It corrects the image the moment you press the shutter button, providing maximum compensation in all directions. Since the light is received near the centre of the lens, this mode gives you clearer, sharper pictures and higher resolution.
