The blue Lumix DMC-TS25 Digital Camera from Panasonic
is a compact "tough" camera that can shoot both photos and HD video on
land and underwater. A 16.1MP CCD sensor provides clear, well-defined
images even in low light and a Lumix DC Vario lens offers focal lengths
from wide-angle to telephoto at 25-100mm in 35mm format. An 8x
Intelligent Zoom function offers even longer digital zoom reach when
needed. 23-area Autofocus and Quick AF combine to provide fast and
accurate autofocus
HD 720p video is available with a dedicated
button one-touch button. Shooting a still photo while shooting video is
supported and MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilization) compensates for
camera shake in photo and video, offering clear images in low light or
when shooting telephoto. Intelligent Auto (iA) Mode is available for
point and shoot capability with all assistive features engaged and Scene
Mode provides predefined settings to shoot certain types of scenes
(Sunset, Starry Sky, Night Scenery, etc.) with the ideal camera
adjustments. The camera also can shoot up to 8 frames per second in
High-speed Burst Mode, shoot time-lapse images and offers Creative
Control Mode in both standard and panorama dimensions so you can add
specialized effects to your photos.
A 2.7" TFT LCD screen with
230k-dot resolution and anti-reflective coating provides composition and
playback viewing. The LCD features 11-step auto brightness adjustment
for better viewing based on light conditions.
The "tough"
features of the TS25 allow it to go pretty much anywhere your adventures
take you. It is waterproof to a depth of 23' (7 m), shock proof from a
drop height of 5' (1.5 m), freeze proof to a temperature of 14ºF (-10ºC)
and dust and sand proof. When dirty, the camera can be easily washed
off with water. The TS25 features Advanced Underwater Mode which
compensates for the red colors often lost when shooting underwater
providing more natural looking underwater images. The camera also
contains a torch light when shooting video underwater or at night and it
can be simply used as a flashlight when you are not shooting.
