DMC-TZ1 - the world s smallest 10x optical zoom digital still camera
Panasonic Lumix cameras go from strength to strength with technological advancements
designed to offer the ultimate in picture performance and user convenience.
Building on its digital still camera achievements, Panasonic presents you with
the world s smallest 10x optical zoom digital still camera, made
It is now even possible to zoom in while recording motion images. Together with
the TZ1 s overall quick response time and the power of the Venus Engine III,
this linear AF system also contributes to a super fast start-up time of 0.95sec.
The speed in which this camera operates means you ll be able to capture special
moments, spontaneously.
Bright and beautiful motion pictures: In addition to standard VGA (640x680)
at 30fps motion image recording, the TZ1 also records stunning full-size movies
in wide aspect VGA (840x840) at 30fps, enabling you to view them on a wide screen
television.
The brightness level is enhanced as a result of the pixel-mixed readout method
performed by the CCD. The linear AF system enables zooming in while recording
motion images, while the O.I.S ensures blur-free footage.
The perfect travel companion boasting 18 scene modes: The Lumix TZ1 s 18 scene
modes allow you to effectively capture your travelling experience, wherever
you go.
The aerial mode assists with shooting through aeroplane windows, and once you
reach your destination, the new beach mode is ideal for taking photos in strong
sunlight.
Used with a separately available marine case boasting a water-resistance of
up to 40m deep, the underwater mode helps produce spectacular underwater shots,
even at depths where there is no sunlight.
Travellers further benefit from the useful Travel Date Setting which, once you
have preset the date of your departure, records and displays the images in chronological
order of your trip.
The World Time Setting is also useful as it allows you to set the time and date
of 74 locations across the world.
These modes are welcomed additions to the existing portrait, soft skin, scenery,
night portrait, night scenery, food, party, candle, fireworks, starry sky, snow
and baby mode.
Panasonic s Baby Mode has now doubled its appeal with the ability to set two
birthdays for two children. When shooting in Baby Mode1 or 2, the relevant child
s age at the time of image capture is automatically recorded onto the image,
allowing you to forever treasure your children s special moments.
The TZ1 has a 207K high resolution, 2.5 large LCD. The pixel-mixed read out
method performed by the CCD automatically increases the brightness level of
the live image on the LCD, which greatly facilitates low-light shooting.
Panasonic is the first manufacturer to incorporate the highly useful High Angle
Mode to a digital still camera LCD, making it easy to view when holding the
camera up high to take pictures over a crowd, for example. With the help of
the Power LCD function, which boosts the backlighting of the LCD by 40%, even
shooting in bright outdoor situations is no longer a problem.
The high-resolution LCD can also display your images in up to 25 thumbnails
on a multi-split screen and allows you to date search an image with the Calender
Display Mode.
