with ED glass delivers superior sharpness and color in all your photos and
movies.
Super-slim: with a slender 19.8 mm¹ body, this easy-to-carry camera gives you
the freedom to zoom in for a portrait photo, or zoom out to film the action,
wherever you go.

positioned in the frame.
20 Scene Modes: achieve great results just by selecting the mode that matches
your shooting situation, or let Scene Auto Selector choose the optimum scene
