Product Features in Detail
18.1-megapixel High Sensitivity MOS Sensor
The 18.1-megapixel High Sensitivity MOS sensor is integrated in the camera to realize both high quality image recording and high speed signal processing. The superior NR (Noise Reduction) system in the Venus Engine enables noise reduction to take place without missing low-frequency noise in its large detection area. It results in the high sensitivity image recording even at ISO6400 (extended).
High Speed Response
High speed digital signal output technology is integrated to realize high speed consecutive shooting and full-HD video recording. It lets you shoot 10 fps in 18.1-megapixel full resolution with mechanical shutter and 5 fps with continuous AF.The actuator for the AF lens motor achieves 240fps high speed AF drive, resulting in higher speed AF by approx. 20% at wide and 30% at tele end. It also contributes to the quick start-up and Light Speed AF to catch the most fleeting shooting opportunities.
Unique Filter Effects Photos and Videos
With a variety of filter effects, Creative Control lets you add artistic and original expression to photos and videos. Creative Panorama function allows you to create dynamic vertical / horizontal panoramic photo with a unique touch just by swiveling the camera.
