16 megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ20
Blurring caused by a hand movement typically occurs in shooting using a high zoom setting, however, the Panasonic Lumix LZ20's Optical Image Stabilizer prevents blur without deterioration of image quality. Furthermore, linking smoothly with the camera's 16-megapixel high resolution CCD sensor, the image processor produces high quality images even in high sensitivity recording at ISO 1600 and max. ISO 6400 in High Sensitivity mode.
Panasonic DMC-LZ20 features an auto mode
To provide users with the ultimate ease of operation and reduction of error, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ20 is equipped with iA (Intelligent Auto) mode. A comprehensive integration of Optical Image Stabilizer, Face Detection, Intelligent Scene Selector and Intelligent Exposure, iA mode lets the camera do all the work so users are free to compose shots, aim and capture the subject.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ20 camera technologies
Face Detection sets appropriate AF/AE on the face of people in an image while removing the unwanted red-eye. Intelligent Exposure corrects the brightness in parts of the image that are too dark due to insufficient lighting, backlighting or use of the flash. Finally, Intelligent Scene Selector automatically selects one of six Scene modes - Macro, Portrait, Scenery, Night Portrait, Night Scenery and Sunset - that best suits the shooting situation. The Panasonic DMC-LZ20 can also produce a dynamic panoramic image in the camera by overlaying pictures shot horizontally or vertically with the Panorama Shot function.
