Manufacturer's Description
Incredible Features, Amazing Value! The DMC-FZ1K delivers incredible power,
with a 12x optical zoom that's the 35mm equivalent to 35-420mm. Even better, pro-quality glass by Leica provides excellent sharpness and contrast. The camera makes photography easy with 10 selectable shooting modes plus a variety of auto and manual adjustments. No matter if you're shooting sports or wildlife from a distance or your prize-winning rose in macro mode to 1.9 inches, this is one 2.0-megapixel camera that brings it all up close and personal.
12x Optical Zoom Select Lumix digital cameras have an incredible 12x optical zoom (the equivalent of a 420mm zoom on a 35mm camera) that lets you capture the details of a distant subject up close and personal. Plus, its F2.8 brightness across the entire 12x zoom range provides extraordinary image-rendering performance and puts you in control over a wide variety of shooting techniques. You can capture broad, sweeping landscapes with wide-angle shots, or portraits that fix the subject in a sharp focus while a softer-focused background provides the perfect contrast.
Leica DC Lenses Equipped with world-renowned Leica DC lenses to offer you the ultimate in digital photography
Venus Engine LSI Generates the luminance signal of the primary color CCD using all three colors (red, green, blue) for improved diagonal image resolution, compared to conventional CCDs that use only one color (green) to do so, resulting in rich, expressive images. This LSI also handles image processing, LCD functions, and writing to the memory card concurrently, for an overall quick camera response.
MEGA Optical Image Stabilizer Offsets unintentional hand movement while you're taking pictures to give you clear, sharp images even when taking handheld telephoto shots or shooting at night. This optical technology provides precise compensation for movement with no image quality degradation.
Mega Burst Imaging This feature allows you to take consecutive pictures at an incredible quick rate, making it perfect for capturing fast-moving objects in high resolution. You can then view your shots on the camera's LCD screen to choose the shot you want and delete the rest.
Shooting Mode Dial The Mode Dial gives you a variety of settings to choose from to help give you the best shot possible based on your shooting environment.
Intelligent Multiple Metering Mode Provides incredible exposures by helping to improve brightness, color temperature and focus information. It also helps to determine the best exposure setting in difficult shooting situations - such as when there is intrusive backlighting.
