| Picture resolution (mega-pixel) |
12.2 |
The more pixels will mean a better quality of print. Digital cameras come in a range of resolutions from 0.3 Megapixel up to around 16.7 Megapixel. |
| Image resolution |
4272x2848 |
Refers to the number of pixels used to either capture or display an image. The higher the resolution the finer the image detail that can be seen. |
| LCD monitor (inches) |
3.0 |
Most digital cameras have an built-in screen, which allows you to preview the image you have just taken, so you can delete the images you don't like. It also provides easy access to camera settings and features via the on-screen menu controls. |
| Focal length (mm) |
1.6x Multiplication with EF lens fitted |
Describes the magnifying power of the camera''s lens. The longer the focal length the greater the magnification. Conversely, the smaller the focal length, the more wide angle the lens. |
| Metering |
TTL full aperture metering with 35-zone SPC |
This is how the camera measures the amount of light being reflected by whatever you are trying to photograph, to determine the correct exposure for that particular scene. Different types of metering used by digital cameras include: Spot, Multi-pattern and centre weighted metering. |
| Shutter speeds (seconds) |
30-1/4000 |
Shutter speed is the amount of time the shutter allows light onto the CCD. The slower the shutter speed, the more motion is recorded by the camera. |
| Maximum aperture |
f2.8 |
Ratio of the focal length of the lens to the diameter of the light rays passing through. Smaller numbers represents more light allowed to pass through. |
| Flash modes |
Auto, Manual Flash On/Off, Red-Eye Reduction |
On fully automatic cameras, the flash fires automatically whenever the light is too dim to take a photo by natural light. On more sophisticated cameras, there are various flash modes you can choose from for more creative effects. |
| Memory card type |
SD/SDHC |
The types of memory used are: SD card, Sony Memory Stick, CompactFlash card and SmartMedia card. |
| Supplied media card (MB) |
None |
The memory capacity (in megabytes) of the supplied media card. |
| Built-in memory (MB) |
None |
Some digital stills cameras have an internal (RAM) memory instead or as well as memory cards. (You can download images from your camera (via a cable) to your PC or even direct to your printer). |
