Photos will take on a new dimension of creative capabilities for viewing the world in a whole new
way.
Optical zoom plus Clear image zoom
Most digital zooms use electronic cropping to get closer to the subject, resulting in unsharp
images. With Clear Image Zoom the powerful processor compares patterns found in adjacent
pixels and creates new pixels to match selected patterns, resulting in more realistic, higher-quality
images. Clear Image Zoom doubles optical zoom for closer photos.
Intelligent Sweep Panorama™ HR mode
With Intelligent Sweep Panorama™ HR mode just press the shutter, pan the landscape and let
the camera do the rest. It automatically links together each frame to produce a high resolution
panoramic image providing the ability to zoom in on small details. This model even detects
faces and moving subjects to stitch intelligently different widths to help avoid subject distortion.
Picture Effect
Picture Effect adds a new level of expression to photos, making ordinary landscapes and portraits
come to life by heightening mood and emphasizing certain attributes. Select models have up to
nine effects.
Photo Creativity
Photo Creativity allows you to fine-tune your exposure settings, such as brightness, color, and
vividness, and quickly choose the right enhancement for your subject. Now you can view Picture
Effects and Photo Creativity effects in real time on the camera’s monitor or in the viewfinder
before shooting.
