Super-easy superzoom



Versatile shooting. 12x optical zoom with Intelligent IS

A long 12x zoom combines with a 28mm wide angle lens so you can get close to distant subjects as well as capture panoramic landscapes and fit everyone in group shots. Intelligent IS automatically adjusts the optical Image Stabilizer to the scene from 7 modes to prevent blur and deliver sharp and detailed photos and videos.

14.1 MP CCD

A 14.1 Megapixel sensor delivers detailed high-resolution images that can be printed in very large sizes (A3+) or cropped to achieve the desired composition.

Smart and Easy

Effortlessly shoot high quality photos or movies with Smart Auto, which detects the scene and selects the perfect settings from 32 variables (21 in movie). Easy mode prevents the accidental use of incorrect buttons so all the family can point and shoot with confidence in any situation.

7.5 cm (3.0") LCD

A large, high quality LCD screen with wide viewing angle allows for easy framing, effortless menu navigation and pleasurable reviewing and playback of the results.

HD movies with stereo sound

Instantly record high quality HD movies (720p) with stereo sound and optical zoom, with one touch of a dedicated Movie Record button. Dynamic and Powered Image Stabilisation keep movies sharp and blur free when shooting on the move or using the telephoto end of the zoom.

Full Manual control

Expand your creativity with Full Manual control of the camera’s shutter speed and aperture.

Creative Filters. Miniature Effect

Experiment and have fun with a range of creative filters. Choose from Fish-eye Effect to re-create the distortion of a fish-eye lens, Super Vivid to boost colour saturation, retro Poster and Toy Camera Effects or Monochrome. Use Miniature Effect when shooting stills or movies to make scenes look like miniature scale models.

Smart Shutter with Wink Self-Timer

Smart Shutter automatically triggers the shutter - so you can capture great family photos. Choose from three ways to take the shot: Smile mode (when a smiling face is detected), FaceSelf-Timer (when a new face joins the frame) or Wink Self-Timer (2sec after a wink).

iFrame movie (720p)

Shoot PC and Mac friendly HD video (720p) in the optimized Apple iFrame format for fast importing, easy editing and simple sharing.
