Description:
The 10.7-megapixel FX520 boasts a 25mm Leica DC VARIO-ELMARIT high-quality
lens with 5x
optical zoom, offering f2.8 brightness. Comprising 7 elements in 6 groups, including 4 aspherical lenses with 6 aspherical surfaces, this advanced
lens unit surpasses Leica's stringent standards and delivers exceptional
optical performance. Newly developed unevenly thick concave meniscus aspherical
lens with high refractive index, allows the 25mm ultra-wide-angle to achieve high
optical performance, encompassed in a slim
design and
lens unit. The 25mm ultra-wide-angle
lens records almost double the viewing space at the same shooting distance compared to other ordinary 35mm
cameras and in 3-megapixel resolution mode, the Extra Optical Zoom function provides additional magnification, extending the zoom capacity to 8.9x by using the central part of the CCD.
When the
picture size is set to 3 megapixels or larger, the
photo is automatically resized to 3 megapixels. When the
lens is shifted back to the wide-end, the
picture size is set to the original size automatically. The original size is maintained for photos smaller than 3 megapixels.
Advanced Touch 3.0-inch intelligent
LCD with 230,000-dot high resolution for easy shooting and playback
The FX520 incorporates a large Touch 3.0-inch, 230,000-dot high-resolution
LCD screen for clear playback of shots and footage. Intelligent
LCD function detects
light conditions and automatically adjusts
LCD backlighting (a maximum of 40% when shooting outdoors in bright sunshine and by adjusting
frame rates when shooting in low-lit situations) as well as using the pixel mixed readout method to ensure the clearest possible image is captured. Detecting precise
lighting conditions and automatically controlling brightness levels with a total of 11 steps, allows this function to produce the clearest possible image in any situation.
