X5 Black Digital Camera. Within its compact easy-to-carry body the PENTAX X-5 features a high-magnification optical 26-times zoom lens offering a focal-length coverage from 22.3 mm. ultra-wide angle to 580 mm. super telephoto (in the 35 mm. format). Coupled with the 1 cm. Macro mode which lets the photographer capture dramatic close-up images of a subject from just one centimetre away it offers quick effortless shooting in a wide range of photographic situations. It also provides the Intelligent Zoom function which extends the cameras zoom coverage to approximately 187.2 times (for a focal length of 4174 mm. in the 35 mm. format) without compromising image quality. The X-5 incorporates a back-illuminated CMOS image sensor. With its top sensitivity of ISO 6400 and approximately 16.0
effective megapixels it demonstrates remarkable high-sensitivity low-noise characteristics and assures high-speed image data readout to deliver super-high-resolution images. The X-5 also features a state-of-the-art imaging engine. Supported by the latest Super Resolution technology this engine offers outstanding image-processing performance to produce clear high-quality images with well-defined details. In addition its unique Handheld Night Scene shooting mode helps the photographer capture a blur-free night-time image by taking multiple images at once and synthesizing them into a single composite picture. The X-5 s. dual shake-reduction system couples the PENTAX-developed sensor-shift-type SR (Shake Reduction) mechanism with a digital SR mode to more effectively compensate for annoying
camera shake. This hybrid system assures the photographer of sharp blur-free images even under demanding camera-shake-prone shooting conditions such as when using a telephoto lens shooting with incident light only in poorly lit locations or photographing sunset scenes. The X-5 comes equipped with a large 3.0-inch high-definition LCD monitor with approximately 460000 dots. Its tilt-able construction allows the photographer to tilt the monitor up and down and set it at angle easiest for viewing. It also provides a clear view of images and menus displayed on the screen to assure a quick effortless check of recorded images and swift error-free setting changes. The X-5 features an electronic viewfinder which comes in handy when shooting a subject in harsh backlight or when the photographer
needs a more solid hold of the camera. Its diopter adjustment mechanism assures the user of the clearest view of both subject and viewfinder display while minimizing eye fatigue during extended shooting sessions. The X-5 features the Full HD movie recording function employing the H-264 recording format. The user can capture high-quality extended movie clips (1920 x 1080 pixels at a 16: 9 aspect ratio) at a frame rate of 30 frames per second. It also offers creative movie playback features such as High-speed Movie mode for slow-motion playback and Time-lapse Movie mode for fast-forward playback. A micro-HDMI terminal (Type D) is also provided on the camera body for the output of recorded movies and sound to external devices. The X-5 lets the user quickly and effortlessly select the desired
shooting mode &mdash. from a total of 10 modes including the hands-off Auto Picture Scene Program Manual Landscape and Handheld Night Snap &mdash. with a single turn of the mode dial without having to access the on-screen menu.
