With the new 14.1 megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS5 taking pictures has never been so simple. Offering superb image quality the Panasonic Lumix LS5 digital camera benefits from a high quality 26mm wide angle Lumix DC Vario lens with F2.8 brightness, helping to capture clear images even in dimly lit situations. The most frequent cause of mis-shot is handshake, and that is why O.I.S. is central to all Panasonic Lumix digital cameras. The O.I.S. system on the Panasonic Lumix LS5 guarantees high correction performance against blur caused by hand-shake and compensates effectively without deterioration of image quality.

In addition to O.I.S, the Panasonic Lumix LS5 also offers the popular iA shooting assist mode (Intelligent Auto) which helps users to utilise other convenient features; Intelligent Scene Selector automatically selects whichever of 5 Scene Modes - Macro, Portrait, Scenery, Night Portrait, Night Scenery - that best suits the shooting situation. With the new Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS5 human faces are captured in focus with appropriate exposure and with Face Detection the camera can also correct unwanted red-eye digitally.

The 26mm wide-angle lens captures approx. 181% larger viewing space compared with that of standard 35mm camera, which excels in shooting vast landscapes or many subjects even at a short distance indoors.

• QuickTime Motion JPEG. • Some lens movement sounds may be recorded. • In Motion Picture Mode, the length of recording time depends on the capacity of the SD/SDHC/SDXC Memory Card. (Up to the equivalent of 2 GB per motion-image recording.) • For Europe, motion images can be recorded continuously for up to 15 minutes. • Use a card with SD Speed Class* with “Class 6” or higher when recording motion images. * SD speed class is the speed standard regarding continuous writing. • SDHC Memory Cards and SDXC Memory Cards can be used only in equipment that is compatible with their respective formats. • If the computer being used does not support SDXC Memory Cards, a message prompting you to format may appear.
