Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS1

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS1 ... digital photographer's biggest enemy, with shaky hands the most common cause of shots spoiled by blurring. Which is one more reason why a Panasonic LUMIX camera is the photographer's best friend. The MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) - a Panasonic original - suppresses hand-shake, giving you remarkably clear, sharp shots even in situations where blurring is typically a problem (in low light conditions or while in motion). LUMIX, with the advanced hand-shake suppression of MEGA O.I.S., sets a brilliant new standard in digital camera performance. Step up to a level of image quality that cannot be measured by pixel count or lens specifications alone.

Improved multi-task image processing in the Venus Engine Plus LSI has further accelerated response speed, giving you more comfortable shooting with a shutter release time lag of about 0.006 second minimum

Take photos even when you don't have an SD Memory Card on hand. The built-in memory holds up to 14MB of image data, which you can later upload to an SD Memory Card or PC. You can also download images from a memory card or PC to the built-in memory, and view them on the LCD anytime you like.

You can snap off consecutive shots at 4 frames per second with full resolution. In addition, the Unlimited Consecutive Shooting function lets you continue shooting until the memory card or the built-in memory is full.

This big, bright 2.0 inch LCD monitor is easy to see. Its TMR (Transmissive with Micro Reflective) design suppresses reflection, so you see your subject clearly even when shooting outdoors.

Use the 3x optical zoom together with the 4x digital zoom to enjoy up to 12x zoom power, which approximates a 420 mm zoom lens on a 35 mm camera.
