Switch on the step zoom function and you can quickly zoom to any
of the five preset optical focal lengths: 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm
or 135mm.
5-step zoom for instant zoom selection.
Covering the angles from wide 28mm to 135mm with an
optical 4.8x zoom lens.
How did we fit a powerful 4.8x (28mm-135mm) optical zoom lens
inside a 25mm slim camera? With our ingenious Retracting LENS
System, which swings part of the lens group like a pendulum in-
side the camera when the lens retracts. As a result, the Caplio R1V
is about 26% slimmer than cameras with conventional lens systems.
To maximize the image capturing power of the 5.0-megapixel CCD,
four highly refractive, low-dispersion glass lenses are incorporated.
