• Taking outdoor shots has become easier like never before with 4x optical zoom Carl Zeiss Vario Tessar Lens of 26mm wide-angle. The wide-angle lens will come in handy when you have to shoot large groups. The 2.7” LCD has a resolution of 230,400 dots that will help you enjoy crystal clear pictures in all conditions.

• Expect chromatic aberration and soft corners in wide-angle shots.
• No manual adjustments can be made to the camera’s built-in ND filter.
• At higher ISO settings, noise is evident and even the picture’s quality dwindles badly.
