8-5.2 Leica DC Vario-Elmarit Lens The DMC-FZ40 features a 25-600mm (35mm equivalent) f/2.

8-5.2 Leica DC Vario-Elmarit high-quality lens.

Comprising 14 elements in 10 groups, including 3 ED (Extra Low Dispersion) lenses and 2 aspherical lenses with 3 aspherical surfaces, this advanced lens unit realizes the outstandingly compact body while passing Leica's stringent standards to deliver exceptional optical performance suppressing distortion at the wide-end and color bleeding at the tele-end. This single camera lets you record both photos and movies just the way you want them, making the DMC-FZ40 twice as attractive.

With a 24x optical zoom (35mm camera equivalent: 600mm) that draws your subjects right up close, you can freely capture decisive sports scenes, along with the natural expressions of animals and details that you can't even see with your bare eyes - in both photos and movies. The 25mm ultra wide-angle lens has about twice the shooting area as a standard 35mm lens.

This enhances all kinds of shooting situations, like when you're photographing a group of people at an indoor party or shooting a large structure or sweeping landscape while traveling. The 24x optical zoom (35mm camera equivalent: 600mm) of the DMC-FZ40, with its wide-open aperture of F5.

2 produces stunning portraits with softly focused backgrounds. The high-quality lenses of this lens system also ensure clear and sharp focusing of your subject in telephoto shots, and provide superb resolution and contrast for smoothly shaded facial complexions.

32x Intelligent Zoom / 50.6x Extra Optical Zoom Intelligent Zoom is available with the DMC-FZ40 which extends the zoom ratio by approx.

1.3x maintaining the picture quality even combining a digital zoom.

This means the 24x optical can virtually extend to 32x equivalent. Furthermore, the extra optical zoom function extends zoom power to 50.

6x by using the center part of the large CCD to bring subjects even closer. Sonic Speed AF The Sonic Speed AF system in the DMC-FZ40 includes numerous re-engineering enhancements, including a higher-speed actuator, optimized algorithms and parallel software processing.

The result is fast and accurate AF performance. You can quickly get moving subjects in focus, such as when you're shooting sports scenes.

Fast Start-up Time The parallel processing of software resulted in ultra high-speed start-up. Short Release Time Lag The shutter release time lag is as short as approx.

0.006 second, making it easy to capture sudden, spur-of-the-moment photo opportunities.

14.1-megapixel High-resolution CCD Images remain clear and sharp even when they are enlarged to A2 size (594 x 420mm).

An A2 photo is large enough to show a newborn baby or the head and chest of an adult in actual size. Photos in ordinary sizes (127 x 89mm or 178 x 127mm) come out beautifully at 3 megapixels.

You can trim the photos any way you want. Venus Engine HD II The high-speed, high-performance Venus Engine HD II is incorporated in the DMC-FZ40 to enable the recording of beautiful photos and high-definition movies with higher quality signal processing including the Intelligent Resolution technology.

The Venus Engine HD II also supports the recording of beautiful, high-definition motion images in AVCHD Lite with its higher processing speed using twin CPUs.

I.S.

(Optical Image Stabilizer nearly doubles the hand-shake correction power of conventional MEGA O.I.

S. You get bright photos without blurring even from handheld shooting at slow shutter speeds.

The quality of night shots is heavily influenced by the shutter speed. When the shutter speed is raised to prevent blurring, insufficient lighting can make the shot too dark.

And when the shutter speed is slowed down to allow more light, hand-shake could occur. In addition to the powerful hand-shake correction of Power O.

I.S.

, the DMC-FZ40 features the iA Mode, which intelligently determines the best shutter speed. Together, they produce dramatically beautiful night scenes.

Face Detection AF/AE with Face Recognition The DMC-FZ40 features Face Recognition, a function that "remembers" faces. Register the person from the menu by taking his/her full-face portrait with his/her name.

Once complete, if the familiar face appears into your frame again, the camera will display the name you specified for that person. The camera will prioritize focus and exposure so that the registered face is bright and in sharp focus.

Up to 3 persons' names can be displayed at once. In playback, you can choose to display only photos that contain a specific registered face using the Category Playback.

The Face Recognition features makes sorting and archiving incredibly easy. Intelligent Scene Selector - Scene Detection When the camera's in the iA Mode, the Intelligent Scene Selector automatically sets the Scene Mode to one of Scenery, Portrait, Macro, Night portrait, Night scenery or Sunset.

When you're taking images of an active subject, like children or pets, this function eliminates the need to press the shutter button halfway down repeatedly to readjust the focus.

The AF Tracking makes sure you don't miss those once-in-a-lifetime shooting opportunities. Quick Auto Focus The DMC-FZ40 features the Quick AF.

Ordinary AF is activated when the shutter button is pressed half-way, while the Quick AF starts operating as soon as the camera is pointed toward a subject. This dramatically reduces the shutter delay time and lets you take images quickly.

Its super-fast focus is ideal for capturing quick images of active children and pets. By setting the camera to the Quick AF, images of sudden shooting opportunities won't be out of focus or blurry.

Intelligent ISO Control - Motion Detection The Intelligent ISO Control function in the DMC-FZ40 made possible by the Venus Engine HD II, detects subject movement and automatically adjusts the ISO setting and shutter speed to best suit the movement and light conditions. When it detects subject motion, it automatically raises the ISO setting and increases the shutter speed to prevent motion blur.

On the other hand, when the subject is still and no movement is detected, it takes beautifully natural photos with a low ISO setting. The Intelligent ISO Control gives you stunning images with ease because there is no need for complicated settings.

Intelligent Exposure - Light Detection The Intelligent Exposure function increases the exposure only in under-exposed areas by detecting the brightness level part-by-part in the image. If the background includes the sky, which tends to be easily washed out, the camera automatically adjusts the aperture and shutter speed to keep the setting slightly under-exposed to prevent wash-out while brightening the darkened area by increasing the ISO only in that area.

If the background of an indoor portrait receives insufficient lighting from a flash and becomes dark, the ISO sensitivity is raised in only the low-lit area to make it brighter without causing graininess in the subject's face. Auto Backlight Compensation When there is strong backlighting, the background appears nice and bright, but the subject is dark.

This function detects backlight condition and compensates it automatically. A/S/M Mode Manual functions are the key to taking highly controlled and distinctive photos.

Aperture-priority Mode lets you open the aperture up wide for stunning portraits with softly focused backgrounds. Shutter-priority Mode makes it possible to express the dynamic power of a flowing stream by slowing down the shutter speed.
