Beautiful Underwater Shots

MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer)
The MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) compensates for blurring caused by hand-shake. Even slight hand-shake movement is accurately detected by a sampling frequency of 4,000 times per second, and compensated to produce sharp, clear images.

The Creative Control (in the recording mode) and the Creative Retouch* (in the playback mode) gives you the expressive power to turn ordinary situations into highly special scenes.

You can record HD motion images (1,280 x 720p*) in MP4 format. It is extremely convenient for you to switch between photo / video shooting instantly by pressing the dedicated recording video button. * Sensor output is 30p (for NTSC area).
Torch Light
The torch light helps to record beautiful videos even in dusky underwater environments or at a nighttime camp. It is possible to use it as a light even while the camera function is not activated.
Time Lapse Shot
Leave the camera to record stationary observation subjects such as flowers coming into bloom or scudding clouds. The series of consequent images can be combined to produce a time lapse video.
