This camera combines a compact, easy-to-carry size with a powerful 6x optical zoom lens* - equivalent to a 37 to 222mm lens on a 35mm camera - for dynamic closeups or great shots from a distance. The Extra Optical Zoom function, which magnifies the image with minimal deterioration by using the center part of the high-resolution CCD, boosts the zoom power to 8.3x** in 3-megapixel images. **Varies depending on the selected image size and aspect ratio.
Mega Optical Image Stabiliser

Jitter from shaky hands is far and away the single biggest cause of blurry shots. Panasonic\'s advanced Mega Optical Image Stabiliser technology takes out the shake, compensating for any slighest human movement, to achieve the highest possible image quality picture.
Extended Shooting from Two AA Batteries

The LZ5 can be powered by two ordinary AA batteries, which you can buy just about anywhere. Using the Oxyride batteries that come with the camera, you can take up to 235 shots.
Quick, Accurate Auto Focus

Choose from five auto focus modes: 1-point, 3-point high-speed,5-point, spot AF, and 1-point high-speed AF with focusing speed reduced by 40% from the previous model. And the AF Assist Lamp helps in dimly lit places. Thanks to the high-performance Venus Engine
Plus, you enjoy a fast camera response with a release time lag as low as 0.005 seconds**. You can shoot quickly, easily and accurately every time. **Not including auto-focusing time.

High Sensitivity Mode - Helps Prevent Motion Blur

This mode helps suppress motion blur by automatically setting the ISO sensitivity up to 1600, which increases the shutter speed. It also lets you take clearer, sharper shots of moving subjects like children or pets in dim lighting without using a flash. The picture quality is good enough for printing at the ordinary 4\" x 6\" (10 x 15 cm) size.*When using High Sensitivity mode, resolution significantly decreases.
MEGA BURST Consecutive Shooting

You can snap off up to 8* consecutive shots at a swift 3 frames per second in Standard mode. The LZ5 also have Unlimited Consecutive Shooting**, so you can keep on shooting until the SD Memory Card or built-in memory is full.
**The consecutive shooting speed varies depending on the memory card or the built-in memory.
Built-In Memory - Shoot Even When You Don\'t Have an SD Memory Card

Take photos even when you don\'t have an SD Memory Card on hand.The built-in memory holds up to 14MB* of image data, which you can later copy onto an SD Memory Card or PC. You can also copy images from a memory card or PC to the built-in memory, and view them onthe LCD anytime you like. *Usable capacity will be less.
