Description: MEGA Optical Image Stabilization uses built-in gyrosensors to detect even tiny camera movement and then shifts a lens in the opposite direction to compensate. The system is completely optical, it does not affect the CCD or image processing so you get sharp, clear images with minimal degradation. When there's not a lot of light or you're using a slow shutter speed, hand movement isn't the only potential problem. There's also "motion blur". The High Sensitivity mode allows you to shoot at up to ISO 1600 by using the pixel-mixed readout method, effectively raising the shutter speed. It not only minimizes motion blur, it also lets you take clearer, sharper shots in dim lighting without using a flash. Widescreen 16:9 Mode lets you shoot images in widescreen, so that you can achieve bold, panoramic images that are perfect for dramatic, wide prints. Plus, you can view photos as full screen images on your widescreen TV. The 2.5" diagonal LCD is clear, bright and easy to see even in low lighting by using the pixel-mixed readout method. It lets you frame shots more comfortably. And when you're finished shooting, the big, bright display lets you enjoy functions like the 25-thumbnail display. Minimize
