The DMC-TZ10 features a 25mm ultra wide-angle 12x optical zoom f/3.3-4.9 Leica DC Vario-Elmar lens (35mm camera equivalent: 25-300mm). Incorporating Panasonics advanced optical technologies, this lens system is comprised of 10 elements in 8 groups, with 2 ED (Extra Low Dispersion) lenses & 2 aspherical lenses/3 aspherical surfaces while preserving compactness. This lens system enables a remarkable 25 to 300mm range of focal length in this compact body. The powerful zoom of the DMC-TZ10 can be freely controlled even when shooting motion images. Inheriting the fine rendering & outstanding quality of the Leica Elmar lens, this easy-to-carry camera delivers beautiful images any time, any place. The DMC-TZ10 features a powerful 12x optical zoom lens (35mm camera equivalent: 25-300mm). This gives you highly natural expressions from people & animals that you cant get close to. It is also available in movie recording with the mechanism designed to minimize the noise of auto focusing or zooming. & its slim, compact, pocket-sized body can easily go wherever you do
- for both everyday snapshots & traveling. The DMC-TZ10 features a large 1/2.33-inch CCD. Conventional cameras generally use almost the entire CCD area when recording an image. The DMC-TZ10, however, employs a 1/2.33-inch CCD with a total resolution of 14.5-megapixel. Using only about a 12.1-megapixel area of this large CCD makes it possible to give all 3 aspect ratios
- 16:9, 3:2, & 4:3
- the same angle of view with lens settings from 25mm to 300mm. & rather than digitally producing "simulated" images, the DMC-TZ10 captures the actual, real-life image for each one of the aspect ratios at the ultra-wide 25mm setting. Plus, the Multi-aspect Mode 2 lets the camera take an image in all 3 aspect ratios simultaneously, so you can choose the best one after shooting. Thanks to the Intelligent Resolution technology, the Intelligent Zoom is available with the DMC-TZ10 which extends the zoom ratio by approx. 1.3x maintaining the picture quality even combining a digital zoom. This means the 12x optical can virtually extend to 16x equivalent. Furthermore, the Extra Optical Zoom function that extends zoom power to 23.4x by using the center part of the large CCD to bring subjects even closer. The Sonic Speed AF system in the DMC-TZ10 has a maximum speed of approx. 0.35 second (wide-end)/0.41 second (tele-end) for auto focusing. It

Includes:: numerous re-engineering enhancements, including a higher-speed actuator, optimized algorithms & parallel software processing. The result is fast & accurate AF performance. You can quickly get moving subjects in focus, such as when youre shooting sports scenes.
