¬Suggestions/Tips ¬

In Motion image mode [ ], the picture size is fixed to 320k240 pixels.

The smaller the picture size

(640k480 pixels) you select, the more pictures you can store on the card. In addition, a small file size allows you to attach the picture to an e-mail or post it on a website more easily.

If you select a larger picture size (2304k1728 pixels), the printed picture will be clearer, especially with

larger sized prints.

• If you playback pictures recorded using [HDTV] mode on a High-Definition TV, (HDTV has 16:9 aspect) the picture quality will be higher. An SD Memory Card can be played on TVs with an SD Memory Card slot.

One of the standout features of the DMC-FX5PP is its 5.1-megapixel sensor. This resolution may seem modest by today’s standards, but during its release, it produced breathtaking images with ample detail and vibrant colors. The camera is equipped with a Leica DC VARIO-ELMAR lens, featuring a 3.6x optical zoom range.

Another notable characteristic is the camera’s 2.5-inch LCD display, which enables easy framing and playback of images. The LCD is bright and offers decent visibility even in daylight, enhancing the overall usability of the camera. Furthermore, the DMC-FX5PP supports various shooting formats, including JPEG and RAW, giving photographers the flexibility to choose how they want to process their images afterward.

In terms of performance, the DMC-FX5PP boasts a fast autofocus system that helps in capturing spontaneous moments without missing a beat. The camera also features several creative effects and filters, allowing users to add artistic flair to their images directly from the device.
