| Digital
zoom |
4x |
Camera
feature involving enlarging the central part of the
image to give a similar effect to a telephoto lens,
basically working like a crop. |
| 35mm
equivalent (mm) |
36-133 |
Most
people are familiar with focal lengths of 35mm camera
lenses. Digital camera manufacturers describe focal
lengths in terms of the lens length on a 35mm camera
that will produce a similar area of view. |
| Auto
focus |
Yes |
This
camera features an autofocus mode, by which electronics
inside the camera examine the image, looking for edges
and lines. They then adjust and focus the lens to
make the lines as sharp as possible, all in a fraction

Shutter
speed is the amount of time the shutter allows light
onto the CCD. The slower the shutter speed, the more
motion is recorded by the camera. |
| Maximum
aperture |
f/3.1 |
Ratio
of the focal length of the lens to the diameter of
the light rays passing through. |

modes |
Auto,
red-eye reduction, fill-in and flash off |
