Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH2 / DMC-FS16 Digital Camera

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH2 14MP Pink Digital Camera w/ 720p 30 fps HD Video 4GB Bundle

28mm Wide-angle 4x Optical Zoom LEICA DC Lens The DMC-FH2 features a newly developed 28mm wide-angle high quality LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens with 4x optical zoom (35mm camera equivalent: 28-112mm) into a slim, compact body. Comprising 6 elements in 5 groups, including 3 aspherical lenses with 6 aspherical surfaces, this advanced lens unit realizes the outstandingly slim and compact body, yet achieving exceptional optical performance. Slim Compact Body With Advanced Optical Technology Panasonic's concurrent development system of lens, mechanism and design of the camera. The DMC-FH2 results in the dramatic downsizing of the body with approx. 20% slimmer profile than the predecessor models while maintaining exceptional optical performance. 28mm Wide-angle Lens The 28mm wide-angle lens lets you easily capture large groups of people indoors or expansive architectural structures and scenes with dynamic width and rich perspective, even from short distances. 4x Optical Zoom / 5x Intelligent Zoom / 8.4x Extra Optical Zoom The DMC-FH2 features a 4x optical zoom lens (35mm camera equivalent: 28-112mm). The 4x optical zoom can be increased its power to 5x equivalent with the Intelligent Zoom function taking advantage of the Intelligent Resolution technology maintaining the picture quality even using digital zoom. Furthermore, the Extra Optical Zoom function that extends zoom power to 8.4x* by using the center part of the large CCD brings subjects even closer. 14.1-Megapixel High-resolution CCD The DMC-FH2 features a 1/2.33-inch CCD with effective 14.1-megapixel high- resolution. Venus Engine VI The high-speed, high-performance Venus Engine VI is incorporated in the DMC-FH2 to enable the recording of beautiful images with higher quality signal processing including the Intelligent Resolution technology. An advanced noise reduction system in the Venus Engine VI applies noise reduction (NR) to luminance noise and chromatic noise separately. As a result, beautiful images with minimal noise can be reproduced all the way up to ISO1600 high sensitivity at full resolution for beautiful night shots or dimly lit indoor shots. Sonic Speed AF The Sonic Speed AF system includes numerous re-engineering enhancements, including a higher-speed actuator, optimized algorithms and parallel software processing. The result is fast and accurate AF performance. In addition, the DMC-FH2 features dramatically speedier focusing that is approx. 45% faster than our previous model. You can quickly focus on moving subjects, such as when you're shooting sports scenes. The shutter release time lag is as short as approx. 0.007 second, making it easy to capture sudden, spur-of-the-moment photo opportunities. Intelligent Resolution Technology The image processing technology "Intelligent Resolution" is incorporated in the Venus Engine VI for the DMC-FH2. With the Intelligent Resolution technology, 3 areas - outlines, detailed texture areas and soft gradation areas - are automatically detected and optimum signal processes are performed to each area. Apart from the uniform enhancement of sharpness, the innovative technology Intelligent Resolution precisely performs signal processing pixel by pixel in the most effective way for it. As a result, images are naturally clear and crisp. 5x Intelligent Zoom The Intelligent Resolution technology realizes the Intelligent Zoom, which virtually extends the optical zoom ratio to its 1.3x equivalent (approx.) mainta
