  • Image capture device: 5.0-megapixel, 1/2.5-inch type Charge Coupled Device (CCD)
  • Total pixels: Approximately 5.3 megapixels
  • Effective pixels: Approximately 5.0 megapixels
  • Lens focal length: 6.0-72.0mm, f2.7-3.5 (35mm film equivalent: 36-432mm)
  • Digital zoom: 4x
  • Focusing range: Normal: 1.6 feet/50 centimeters to infinity (wide), 3.0 feet/90 centimeters to infinity (telephoto); macro: 3.9 inches to 1.6 feet/10 to 50 centimeters; super macro: 0 to 3.9 inches/0 to 10 centimeters; TTL sutofocus (continuous/single)
  • Optical viewfinder: 0.33-inch low-temperature polycrystalline silicon TFT color LCD
  • Besides looking sweet and feeling superb in my hand, it take some nice point and shoot shots… Click the read more button below to see a shot of my son literally minutes after opening the box.
