Tested with the same standards used to assess Panasonic's acclaimed TOUGHBOOK series computers, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FT1 is waterproof to a depth of 3.0m, shockproof from falls up to 1.5m, and dust-proof - so you can take this camera with you into a range of extreme situations. The FT1 features a new 28mm wide-angle, 4.6x optical zoom LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens with 12.1-megapixel resolution. Starting at the 28mm wide angle, and zooming to a useful 128mm telephoto, this camera gives you the flexibility for shooting virtually all scenes - especially underwater, where movement is often restricted and the angle of view becomes important for composing your shots.  HD motion-image recording is available in AVCHD Lite allowing longer video recordings with breathtaking HD visual and audio quality, making it a true hybrid -- a single model that performs admirably as both camera and camcorder while achieving smooth, easy operation in both modes. RRP $549.

 

Movie Feature – captures HD video with audio up to 1280 x 720 resolution at 50p frames per second. Video compression format is the new AVCHD Lite (MPEG-4/H.264 format) that achieves high quality with smaller file sizes. Recording length is up to capacity of memory card. You can also use optical zoom whilst shooting HD movies as well as being able to utilise Intelligent Auto (iA) and scene modes. Also features high-quality Dolby Digital Stereo audio with wind-cut function and an LED light for shooting in dark underwater or night time conditions.

confused.JPG What are the features and how will they benefit you?

Dual Image Stabilisation – Mega O.I.S. optical and digital technology works together to counteract blurred images due to shaky hands, subject movement, or when shooting in low-light conditions - important at full zoom where a small movement of the hand can cause a lot of movement at the other end.
28mm Wide 4.6x Leica Zoom Lens – cover a wide range of shooting situations from wide-angle to capture more in your image, to telephoto where you can zoom up close to distant objects.

12.1 Megapixels – enough resolution to make good looking prints up to A2 in size, or crop your images down while still retaining enough quality to print great 6x4 photos.

Beach & Surf Mode – unique mode selectable via the main dial that automatically engages intelligent exposure and autofocus tracking to handle bright sunlight and fast-moving subjects.
iA (Intelligent Auto) – Automatically adjusts your camera for a range of different shooting situations and includes such features as
Mega O.I.S Optical Image Stabilisation, Intelligent ISO, Face Detection, Intelligent Scene Selector, and Intelligent Exposure & AF Tracking – leaves a lot of complex settings up to the camera.

Face Recognition – remembers registered faces and adjusts for optimal focus and exposure for the recognised face.

Venus Engine HD with ISO 6400 – high speed image processor with high sensitivity (ISO 6400) for low-light operation and advanced noise reduction for better detail. It features twin CPU’s for high-speed processing of beautiful HD video and features low power consumption.

Short Shutter Lag – has a shutter lag of just 0.005 seconds making it an extremely fast and responsive camera so you won’t miss the perfect moment.

Low Energy Consumption – Expect to get around 340 shots on a single battery charge.

Panorama Assist – makes shooting panoramas a breeze by showing the overlap for each shot on the LCD.

MEGA Burst - up to 2.3 frames per second high-speed burst capture at full resolution – great for capturing fast-moving action such as sports, kids, animals.

2.7” 230,000-dot LCD Monitor - Auto Power LCD function adjusts the backlight brightness so it is easy to view in bright sunlight or darkness. High resolution and wide viewing angle makes it great for sharing photos with others.

Text Stamp - The date of shooting can be printed on photos. And the subject's name and age based on the birth date input in Baby Mode or Pet Mode, the date of travel information entered in the Travel Date setting, and a Title can also be printed.

In-Camera Levelling – correct images that are not level in-camera – great if you are printing directly from the camera or memory card.
HDMI Output with Viera Link – you can view your HD images and videos in all their glory on a HDTV by simply connecting the camera using a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable (sold separately). If you have a Viera HDTV you can control the camera’s playback functions using the Viera remote control.
