Product Description
The Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LX7 10.1 MP Digital Camera comes with a newly
developed 24mm ultra-wide angle LEICA DC VARIO-SUMMILUX lens that
boasts a F1.4 brightness at wide-end and F2.3 at tele-end. Pictures
will be sharp and blur-free, even in poorly lit environments. An
advanced lens system - which has never been adapted to any Panasonic
LUMIX digital camera or interchangeable lens - of 11 elements in 10
groups; 5 aspherical lenses with 9 aspherical surfaces, including the
dual-sided aspherical surface ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lens, is what
makes it easy to produce beautiful high resolution photos with minimal
distortion and a pleasing, soft-focused background to the human eye.
Improved over the LX5 compact digital camera, the LX7 has a new
10.1-megapixel MOS sensor which results in high resolution images and
high sensitivity recording. The Venus Engine integrates fast signal
technology letting you record continuous, smooth videos at full HD 60p.
The Intelligent Noise Reduction system in the Venus Engine adjusts
images and scenes taken in sensitive areas and creates clear, crisp
imagery. For low-lit situations, the Multi-process Noise Reduction
System produces dramatically clear photos and videos. And the
Intelligent HDR controls exposure levels. Put this together, and you
have a LUMIX Original with Multiple Aspect Ratios that find the balance
you need for top-notch pictures and movies.
Featured only in the LX7 compact digital camera, two new creative
controls: Radial Defocus and Smooth Defocus, redefine your scene. You
can still choose from among 14 original retouches but if you want to
capture a flower in bloom or a passing cloud, then you'll love the Time
Lapse Shot. With 6 customizable color types, add an artistic touch to
your images. With the LUMIX LX7 camera, more shooting control is yours
with the new Panorama Shot, the Intelligent Handheld Night Shot (iA
Mode generates an illuminated night scene), and the White Balance
Bracket function. You can even produce 3D Images. Advanced
photographers get even greater creative license in the manual control
mode.
The Motion Picture designated button, on the LX7 digital camera, lets
you record while taking photos without having to switch modes. Make
videos in full HD 1,920x1,080 60p in both AVCHD Progressive (MPEG-4)
and MP4 formats. Zoom with 3.8x and use the Auto Wind Cut function to
block wind noise. The bright LEICA lens allows for minimum
illumination. In Creative Control and Photo Style, render unique
expressions by coordinating colors to your subject and its surroundings.
Have fun and share laughs when you use the Miniature Effect mode to
playback your movies with 10x fast-forwarding. The digital camera's
Creative Video Mode lets you adjust the shutter speed and aperture as
you like when shooting videos.
With the Panasonic LX7 digital camera, comes the new Light Speed AF
(Auto Focus) lets you catch those on-the-go subjects that seem nearly
impossible to follow. You won't miss a moment as AF Tracking
automatically tracks your subject as soon as you focus on it letting
you click away. This is ideal when taking images of active subjects,
like children, athletes, or wild animals because this smart function
will readjust the focus for you without having to press the shutter
button halfway down. The new Focus Lever activates the AF area,
changing to a handy one-shot for initial focusing. During playback,
this function gives you one-touch zoom playback of subjects, right in
your focus zone.
Panasonic's new enhancements in the LUMIX LX7 compact digital camera
include an aperture ring, internal ND filter, focus lever and rear dial
that control light sources so you don't have to. The newly added Level
Gauge detects horizontal or vertical view angles keeping shots within a
horizontal composition even when shooting at low or high angles. A
7.5x Intelligent digital zoom lets you expand from a 3.8x optical
starting point. And with Step Zoom, have fun selecting a range as you
adjust the desired fixed focal length on your lens.
The digital camera's POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) features a
great performance improvement - it has twice the shake suppression
capability of MEGA O.I.S. So if your hands shake, it won't show in your
pictures. Because a shaky hand is interpreted as a low-frequency
vibration, POWER O.I.S. is particularly effective because its advanced
technology prevents the transfer of movement onto your pictures or
videos. Now you don't have to worry about capturing that romantic
evening scene, celebrity close-up shot, or even an underwater
experience. POWER O.I.S. will hold your hand.
Don't worry about shooting for long periods of time. The DMC-LX7 point
and shoot camera's grip is easy to hold and use. Your hand won't get
tired when shooting extended videos because its resin and elastomeric
materials add comfort while the leather-like fabric smoothes your
tactile touch. While filming, the advanced 3.0-inch 920K-dot LCD has a
wide-viewing angle, a 100% field-of-vision, and the Intelligent LCD
function automatically adjusts the brightness according to your
shooting conditions. For more magnification, there's the optional Live
View Finder (LVF), a new device that also displays LCD, but is easier
to see under bright sunlight. Use it for low-angle shots as you can
tilt it 90°.
Take advantage of this built-in photo development software that lets you
correct, manipulate, and even develop RAW data files. The LX7 digital
camera lets you transform your shots as you wish, adjusting unnatural
edges, saturated color borders, and false colors that appear in
architectural shots. DOLBY; Digital Stereo Creator will make your
videos lively with high quality stereo sound. Once you've recreated
your scenes, upload instantly to Facebook and YouTube.
