14.1MP High Sensitivty MOS Sensor
---------------------------------
Conventional Digital Cameras use image sensor technology built
around a CCD (Charge Coupled Device). However the demand for
faster readout and lower power consumption has led to the
development of MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) sensors as the
preferred technology to deliver the advanced features of today's
models. Panasonic's advanced 14 megapixel MOS sensor offers a
digital readout from the sensor that supports Full HD video
and high speed burst shooting. Also, due to a newly
designed micro lens tube structure, light capture is maximised
and picture noise greatly reduced (less than half the level
compared to previous model TZ20).
High Resolution Leica Lens
--------------------------
Due to the strenuous image quality control checks that are
enforced by Leica during Panasonic's lens manufacturing process,
high quality and performance is assured in three main areas:
Resolution - sharp and clear all the way to the edge and corners.
Distortion - straight lines must appear straight, even at the
wide angle. Ghost-free clarity - images should be largely free of
ghosting or flare.
Anti-ghost & Flare with Nano Coating Lens
---------------------------------------------
Nano thin layer virtually eliminates ghost and flare entirely In
addition to multi-coating lens technology to reduce flare and
reflections, the application of a Nano thin coating outer layer
(usually only found on high-end Digital SLR lenses) virtually
eliminates ghost and flare entirely.
Power O.I.S. with Active Mode
-----------------------------
Taking s from a moving vehicle or while walking is more
precise Our highest and most effective order of image
stabilisation. Power O.I.S. is about twice as effective as our
conventional system at reducing low-frequency vibration-caused
blur. It is especially useful when using slow shutter effects or
shooting night scenes. And with the option of Active mode, taking
s from a moving vehicle or while walking is also more
precise. It is even effective in video movie mode.
Fastest Auto Focus
------------------
The incredibly fast focus speed is due to the double speed
readout from the sensor when the shutter button is half pressed
Fast focus is a must when you don't want to miss the moment of a
lifetime. None come faster in a compact camera than the lightning
fast 0.1 seconds of Lumix. Borrowed from the technology used in
our Lumix G system camera, the incredibly fast focus speed is due
to the double speed readout from the sensor when the shutter
button is half pressed.
Powerful 20x Optical Zoom Lens
------------------------------
One of the reasons the Lumix TZ series has proved so popular is
the way in which Panasonic manage to cram an amazing high zoom
lens in to a relatively small bodied camera. New for the 2012
model TZ30, is an incredible 20x optical zoom. That means that
you could be shooting at a wide angle equivalent of 24mm one
minute and then zooming in for a close up at 480mm the next.
Another way of imagining this amazing zoom range is this, picture
yourself on the wild African plains watching a male lion ing
in the hot afternoon sun. You are 90 feet away on the back of a
safari jeep but can just make out his shape amongst the grass.
Now take your TZ30 and zoom right in to your subject. The amazing
image you take with the camera is as if you were less than 10
feet from him and you can now see that he still has one eye open
and firmly fixed on you.
24mm (Equivalent) Wide-Angle Lens
---------------------------------
In 35mm camera terms, a 50mm lens is considered close to the
natural viewing angle of humans. A 100mm lens makes the subject
appear twice as close to the camera but reduces the width of view
by half. A 25mm lens has the site effect, making the angle of
view twice as wide as the 50mm lens but appearing as if we have
moved the camera away from the subject. The advantage of a wide
angle lens, such as the 24mm equivalent included in this camera,
is that you can get more image in the . That's great for
indoor use where you may want to photograph a group of friends,
or for outdoor s where you want to shoot an amazing landscape
or sunset. Either way, you will find the wide angle option adds
to your creativity.
50P Full HD Video Mode with AVCHD Progressive
---------------------------------------------
The newly developed Venus Engine FHD supports video at
50 frames per second in Full HD resolution (1920x1080). This
offers the smoothest and most detailed video mode ever for a
compact digital camera and is perfect for fast action sports
.
ISO 3200 Low Light Shooting
---------------------------
A combination of improved noise reduction and redesigned MOS
sensor means that you can now shoot in very low light conditions
by selecting a high sensitivity mode of ISO3200.
Functionality & Ease of Use
-------------------------------
High Resolution 3.0 Inch Wide Angle Touch Screen LCD
----------------------------------------------------
Not only do our TZ models offer a large 3.0 inch, 460,000 pixel
high resolution display, but the TZ30 also offers a smart touch
screen so that you can enjoy features like Touch Shutter, Touch
AF Tracking and Touch Zoom. And when you are reviewing the
pictures you have taken you can Photo Scroll and Photo Zoom your
images. All in all an intuitive welcome addition to this age of
touch screen devices.
iA (Intelligent Auto) Shooting Mode
-----------------------------------
The art of taking interesting photographs is to have a camera
that is ready to shoot when the moment arises. iA mode is a
feature of all Lumix models and it lets you take the picture
without you having to worry about what settings to use. The
camera intelligently works out the type of scene that you are
trying to capture. Whether it is a picture of a persons face
(using Auto Portrait mode), a dramatic landscape (using Auto
Landscape mode), A close up of a beautiful flower (using Auto
Macro mode) or a group of friends (using Auto Face Detection &
Re). All the most commonly used shooting scenarios are
programmed in to the camera and the camera makes all the internal
settings automatically, leaving you to just press the button.
10 Frames Per Second High Speed Burs Shooting
---------------------------------------------
High-speed burst shooting, up to 10 frames per second at full
resolution One of the advantages of a MOS sensor is the
incredibly fast read-out speed. High-speed burst shooting, up to
10 frames per second at full resolution, is possible. This
enables you to capture high speed action with a sequence of still
pictures that are sharp and defined, even when it is difficult to
keep the subject in the centre of the frame. You can review the
images after you have captured the action and choose the best
composed .
Creative Control for
------------------------------
Up to 10 creative filter effects can be selected before taking
your . These effects: Expressive, Retro, High Key, Low Key,
Sepia, High Dynamic, Dynamic Monochrome, Miniature, Toy Photo and
Soft Focus add an interesting new look to what might otherwise be
a boring picture.
Creative Re-Touch for Playback
------------------------------
Some of the creative filter effects that are available before
taking your picture, are also available to add to your after
you have captured it. You can decide whether effects like Soft
Focus, High Key or Dynamic Monochrome add an interesting new look
to your , and apply the effect to the original picture after
you have reviewed it.
Stereo Sound
----------------------
A built-in stereo microphone means high quality Dolby encoded
stereo sound can be recorded when using movie mode.
Networking
----------
GPS with Photo ping
----------------------
Latitude and Longitude positioning are stored in the image data
for each photograph Ever looked at a photograph and wondered
exactly where it was taken? Well with GPS tagging on all your
photos you need never wonder again. Latitude and Longitude
positioning are stored in the image data for each photograph.
Based on a database of almost one million landmarks stored in the
camera, it even works out whether the photo was taken at a famous
landmark.
Extended Capacity SD Card
-----------------------------------
Panasonic Lumix cameras are compatible with SD Memory Card, SDHC
Memory Card and the format new extra capacity SDXC Memory Cards.
So whether it's 1GB, 4GB or 64GB capacity you require, Lumix can
accommodate.
HDMI Control with Viera Link
----------------------------
When using the Mini HDMI connection between the camera and a
Panasonic Viera TV, the still pictures and video files contained
on the inserted SD memory card or on the camera's internal memory
can be accessed and viewed by using the TV remote control. This
function called Viera Link makes searching and viewing files easy
and straight forward with one remote controller.
