A powerful 35x optical zoom lens* draws your subjects right up close with 16.1-megapixel full-resolution. This lets you freely capture decisive sports scenes, along with the natural expressions of people and animals, and details that you can't even see with your bare eyes.
* 35mm camera equivalent: 25-875mm.
The 25mm ultra wide-angle lens* has about twice the shooting area as a standard 35mm lens. This enhances all kinds of shooting situations, like when you're photographing a group of people at an indoor party or shooting a large structure or sweeping landscape while traveling.
* Converted to standard 35mm camera equivalent, at the wide-end.
The Extra Optical Zoom function uses the center part of the CCD to extend this 35x zoom ratio to powerful 78.8x zoom (35mm camera equivalent: 1,970mm) at a resolution of 3-megapixel or less.
Blurring image due to handshake often occurs in shooting using high zoom, however, the Optical Image Stabilizer minimizes it without causing deterioration of image quality.
