Panasonic DMC FX60 Extra Optical Zoom Digital Camera
July 28, 2009 | Digital Camera, Panasonic | 1 CommentThe 12.1 megapixel Panasonic DMC-FX60 packages of 25 mm Leica DC Vario-Elmarit lens with high quality 5x optical zoom, offering F2.8 brightness. Comprising 7 elements in 6 groups including 3 aspherical lenses with 5 aspherical surfaces, this advanced unit passes the stringent standards of Leica and offers exceptional optical performance. Notably, Panasonic is the first integration of super thin 0.3mm aspherical lens first in the industry and 0.3 mm spherical lens, mold and mass production is difficult in the new unity of purpose. This allows to adapt to the 25-125mm lens in stunning high-performance thin and compact. The 25mm ultra-wide-angle viewing lens records almost double the space at the same shooting distance compared to 35mm. In addition, 3-megapixel mode, the Extra Optical Zoom function provides additional magnification, extending the zoom power to 9.8x by using the central part of the CCD.
Another feature of the Panasonic FX60 is its high-speed AF, the industry’s fastest level. Combined with a high speed start only 1.1 seconds to catch the most fleeting images. The 2.7-inch large LCD offers intelligent and clear his small aircraft. Battery life is as powerful as approx. 360 photos of shooting with high energy efficiency of image processing LSI Venus Engine V. Available in silver, black, pink, purple, gold and blue, the Lumix DMC-FX60 is a truly distinctive, with higher specifications that clearly distinguish them from other thin, elegant designs.
The common concept shared by all the new products for LUMIX second half of 2009 is the perfect transaction, which is essential for stress-free photography. To answer the first by all photographers – to take all possible shooting opportunity – Panasonic is back to basics and developed an industry leader, the ultra-high-speed AF which is twice faster than its predecessor FX40 shortened dramatically while the startup time, too.
To achieve the ultra high-speed AF on the Panasonic Lumix FX60, a number of re-engineering and improvements are made, including the adaptation of the fastest speed of the actuator, optimization algorithms and parallel software processing element. The result is ultra-high speed for the time AF performance for users to take advantage of the shooting who has never experienced before airy. Panasonic has also replaced its linear processing with parallel processing to achieve ultra high speed 1.1 seconds to boot, which is remarkable.
In image processing, the luminance noise and chromatic noise are reduced separately before and after signal processing. This is explained by the separation of two dimensions, the noise in high frequency and low frequency noise. Circuits while effectively reduce low frequency noise to minimize unwanted noise and help to produce beautiful, always strong and the movement of images.
The multi-task image-processing engine of the Panasonic DMC-FX60 is a super fast response time. The shutter lag is as short as approx. 0.006 seconds, making it easier to capture sudden, spur of the moment photos. Mode burst shooting, the Lumix FX60 may just approx. 2-3 shots per second at full 12.1 megapixel resolution. High speed burst shooting mode, it fires off an incredible approx. 10 shots per second and Flash Burst mode, you can take shots continuous emission of flash. Despite its outstanding performance, high performance engine is also more energy efficient to prolong the battery life up to 360 photos (CIPA) per a single charge.
Taking advantage of Panasonic accumulated optical technologies, MEGA OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) was incorporated into Lumix cameras early stage of development of a digital camera. This helped to show all digital camera users of the need for hand-shake compensation, and led to its prevalence in the entire industry. MEGA O.I.S. has evolved into the new Power O.I.S. on the Panasonic DMC FX60, with a great improvement in performance – double the capacity to shake the deletion of previous models.
With the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX60, taking photos is very easy. Panasonic incorporated the Intelligent Auto mode under the ultimate ease of use and reduction of misshots. In iA mode the camera does all the work, leaving you free to compose shots and capture moments. Simply press on goal and shoot. This mode is now more advanced with the inclusion of new advanced system OIS image stabilization and Face Recognition Power FX60 Panasonic.
The handshake, and it is physically generated when you press the shutter button or when shooting at night with a slow shutter speed, is recognized as one of the low-frequency vibrations, for which the new Power OIS is efficient. This greatly improves the quality of photos taken at night or indoors where the flash can not be used, or if the photographer does not use the flash because it would spoil the atmosphere. The Panasonic DMC-FX60 Digital Camera capture great pictures in situations that previously resulted in a blur.
The Panasonic FX60 features face recognition, a feature that is popular in the previous FX40, with several updates. Three face images can be recorded for each person, to dramatically increase the accuracy of detection. And when the horizontal angle of view is changed, the display name also rotates for easy reading. Once you enter iA mode, these functions are done automatically with the powerful support of fire – AF Tracking, Intelligent ISO Control, Intelligent Scene Selector and Intelligent Exposure – so you can get easily adjust settings every time conditions change. You can enjoy easy, trouble-free shooting in any situation and get the satisfaction that comes with capturing clear, beautiful images.
The high mode and Dynamic Picture Frame mode is newly added to the existing scene modes. The Photo Frame Mode lets you shoot images with beautiful scenery, as a framework, which is ideal for the photos to others as a gift. The High Dynamic mode allows you to capture a scene with moderate exposure, even if the scene contains both bright and dark space together. The user can choose one of three options, the standard, art, or B / W, depending on the desired effect and personal taste to make the photo look natural artistic. [via letsgodigital]
