LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Panasonic's new
compact LUMIX DMC-SZ3, is packed with features to cater for any
photographer, whether looking to capture family and friends,
vacation scenery or a night on the town. With an impressive 10x
Optical Zoom LEICA DC lens, 20x digital intelligent zoom, 25mm wide
angle lens, 10fps (frames per second) burst shooting and 12
creative effects, all packed into a sleek slim design, the SZ3 is
every photographer's friend.
Impressive zoom features
The Panasonic DMC-SZ3 may be small and slim, but certainly
outperforms its size when zoom is required. Fitted with a 10x
Optical Zoom LEICA DC lens alongside a 20x digital intelligent zoom
which keeps the shape and light of the image automatically, distant
images can be brought visually closer while image quality is kept
thanks to the camera's Intelligent Resolution technology.
Incredibly clear, high quality photos and
video
The 16.1 megapixel sensor has increased from its predecessor's
14.1-megapixels. It boasts high-speed signal output and
high-sensitivity image recording producing superb results.
Furthermore, the high quality of the images and video is easily
viewed on the 2.7" LCD screen. Equipped with 12 creative effects
such as soft focus, toy effect and retro, the SZ3 puts creativity
at your fingertips.
Slim and small, yet clever and
mighty
Marc Sorkin, Product Marketing
Manager, Panasonic Consumer Marketing Company of North America, comments: "Panasonic's SZ3 may
be small but it punches well above its weight. Packed full of
features, from a super 10x optical zoom LEICA DC lens and a 20x
intelligent zoom, 1280 x 720 HD video capabilities, quality is not
compromised. Creative functions which include miniature and beauty
retouch, the SZ3 is the price friendly alternative. With HD
recording and 14 creative modes including beauty retouch, the SZ3
will allow you to produce high quality images and video time and
time again."
