Product Description
Product Description
BrightCapture Technology:A technology developed for better shooting results in low light situations. It works in two ways: i)All available pixel information from the image sensor is used to provide a view on the LCD that's up to four times brighter than conventional types, to make framing easy even in dark surroundings. ii) In certain shooting modes sensitivity is increased (resolution is sometimes reduced), which results in well-exposed images with accurate colour reproduction, high contrast and definition, even when not using the flash.Scene modes that benefit from BrightCapture Technology include Candle, Night Scene and Available Light.
Dual Image Stabilization:Providing two-fold protection, this special function helps to avoid image blur caused by camera shake or fast-moving subjects. It combines high ISO values with a CCD-based mechanical image stabiliser, where a built-in gyro sensor detects camera movement and adjusts the the CCD accordingly.
Shadow Adjustment Technology:A technology designed to improve exposure for pictures with dark areas. Using a sensor that works much like the human eye, dark parts of a composition (e.g. a shadow under a tree) are identified and the camera then adjusts the exposure settings accordingly for those areas. The result is a more realistic and detailed picture.
Perfect Shot Preview:Live view display LCD can show multiple images with different settings (e.g. zoom factor) at the same time during framing. These images are variations on photo parameters for the same subject. The preferred picture result can than simply be chosen.
Illuminated Buttons:Enhance night time shooting with the µ [mju:] 780 with illuminated buttons. A sensor detects ambient lighting and automatically illuminates the buttons as necessary. The shooting and playback buttons are always illuminated.
Manufacturer's Description
Finished in a choice of stylish silver or black, the metal-bodied µ [mju:] 780 offers endurance and power in one solid bundle. This weatherproof* model not only can handle unexpected raindrops, but reward photographers with picture-perfect results very time. Shadow adjustment Technology optimises the exposure of scenes with shadowy or other dark areas - so the outcome closely resembles that which the human eye sees.
Incorporation of a 5x optical zoom (equivalent to 36-180mm) provides great versatility to frame subjects, while Dual Image Stabilization ensures double-barrelled protection against the effects of camera shake. With the µ [mju:], there's no need to fear the dark. The integration of BrightCapture Technology makes framing shots a cinch by providing a brighter view on the 6.4cm/2.5" HyperCrystal LCD. In addition, the ISO value is increased to 1600 while retaining full resolution. Pictures taken in low light situations are therefore considerably brighter and clearer than is customary - so it's easy to capture the ambience of faces around a campfire or atmospheric indoor shots in great quality. This technology is applied in various scene modes plus for movie recording (30fps). For added comfort in the dark, illuminated buttons are included to help improve shooting and menu navigation.
Clever design and a user-friendly interface make this powerful µ [mju:] model incredibly easy to use. A Hi-Speed USB port (up to 480 Mbit/s) allows direct connection with a computer or printer, making the transfer of photos both fast and easy. The availability of 20 scene mode - including Candle, Available Light and a variety of underwater modes - lets users quickly select the one best-suited for the particular shooting situation to ensure the finest results.And with 25 different languages on board to choose from, no one will have a problem understanding the on-screen menus.There's also plenty of room to expand storage space with both internal memory and a built-in xD-Picture Card slot.
