stunning detail and clarity with
exceptional video (1080 lines of

experience.
10X Optical / 20X Digital Zoom
The optical zoom helps to bring the
action close up from far away. In

digital zooming is clearer, with less
distortion than previous types of digital
zoom.

The additional T coating on the lens
further reduces unwanted glare and
flare.
