Compact Panasonic Digital Camera with 12X Optical Zoom

The two major causes of blurred images in photography are hand movement and subject movement. Helping to solve this dilemma is Panasonic's six -mega pixel Lumix digital camera (Model No.DMC-FZ7) with two new features: MEGA Optical Image Stabilization and a High Sensitivity Mode.

MEGA OIS uses a gyro sensor to compensate for hand movement by shifting internal lens elements so the image is not electronically manipulated (Read: compressed) thus reducing degradation.

Its High Sensitivity Mode suppresses blur caused by quick or unpredictable moving subjects, especially when shooting indoors with fast shutter speeds.

Both The MEGA O.I.S. feature and High Sensitivity Mode allow the you to shoot with a maximum ISO 1600 setting. Other features include an industry-leading release time lag of 0.008 seconds and shutter interval of approx. 0.5 seconds minimum. $399.95; www.panasonic.com
