memory, and MPEG Movie VX video capture capabilities. It is
PictBridge compatible so you can easily print photographs directly
from the camera onto compatible photo printers without the need of a
personal computer.
1/2.5" 5.1
Megapixel Super HAD™ CCD
Super HAD (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCDs provide excellent image
quality by allowing more light to pass to each pixel, increasing
sensitivity and reducing noise. |
