Product Description

The LUMIX DMC-FH25 shoots high-quality 16.1 megapixel images and combines a 28mm
wide-angle LEICA DC lens with a powerful 8x optical zoom to take amazing photos.
Redesigned with an easy-to-hold grip and slim and stylish profile, it features a
2.7 inches Intelligent LCD, 720p High Definition (HD) video recording and
advanced iA (Intelligent Auto) for ease of use.Venus Engine VI
The high-speed, high-performance Venus Engine VI is incorporated in the DMC-FH25
to enable the recording of beautiful images with higher quality signal
processing including the Intelligent Resolution technology. An advanced noise
reduction system in the Venus Engine VI applies noise reduction (NR) to
luminance noise and chromatic noise separately. As a result, beautiful images
with minimal noise can be reproduced all the way up to ISO1600 sensitivity at
full resolution for beautiful night shots or dimly lit indoor shots.
iA (Intelligent Auto) Mode
Panasonic's popular iA mode, a suite of technologies that engage automatically
with no setting changes needed by the user makes it easy for anyone to take
beautiful photos. The LUMIX FH25 features two new iA functions AF (Auto Focus)
Tracking and Intelligent Exposure. AF Tracking locks onto any subject and keeps
it in focus even if it moves, while the Intelligent Exposure optimizes the
exposure for each part of an image, preventing blocked shadows and blown
highlights and helping ensure that gradation and details are reproduced
beautifully. The automatic backlight compensation function activates whenever
the camera detects the subject is in backlight.MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image
Stabilization) Shake Detection
Reduces blurry photos that result from hand-shake. The MEGA O.I.S. (Optical
Image Stabilizer) in the DMC-FH25 compensates for the blurring caused by
hand-shake. Even slight hand-shake movement is accurately detected by a sampling
frequency of 4,000 times per second, and compensated to produce sharp, clear
images. The Venus Engine VI controls the shifting of the blur-stopping lens with
even greater precision to further increase the detection accuracy and correction
effect of MEGA O.I.S. It works for zoom shots and macro shots, which are
especially susceptible to hand-shake, and lets you shoot in dimly lit rooms or
evening illumination to preserve the mood. In short, it lets anybody take
beautiful, blur-free shots with ease.
Intelligent ISO Control Motion Detection
The Intelligent ISO Control function in the DMC-FH25 made possible by the Venus
Engine VI detects subject movement and automatically adjusts the ISO setting and
shutter speed to best suit the movement and light conditions. When it detects
subject motion, it automatically raises the ISO setting and increases the
shutter speed to prevent motion blur. On the other hand, when the subject is
still and no movement is detected, it takes beautiful natural photos with a low
ISO setting. The Intelligent ISO Control gives you stunning images with ease
because there is no need for complicated settings.Face Detection AF/AE
Helps to ensure registered faces are captured in focus with appropriate exposure
and unwanted red eyes are digitally corrected. The Face Detection AF/AE function
1 detects faces and automatically optimizes the focus and exposure settings. It
prevents the blurry faces that happen when the camera focuses on something in
front of or behind the subject, and keeps faces from appearing dark when
shooting indoors or against the light source. It detects up to 15 faces at a
time, making it extremely convenient for group photos. Once the camera detects a
face, Face Tracking follows it even when the subject moves around. Plus, the
system keeps detection on if a face turns sideways to the camera. The DMC-FH25
is also equipped with Digital Red-eye Correction (Red-eye Removal). The camera
takes care of the red-eye effect that often happens when shooting with a flash,
to ensure attractive facial expression.
Intelligent Scene Selector - Scene Detection
Select the best option from: Macro, Portrait, Scenery, Night Portrait, Night
Scenery and Sunset by detecting the environment. When the camera is in iA Mode,
the Intelligent Scene Selector automatically sets the Scene Mode to Scenery,
Portrait, Macro, Night Portrait*1, Night Scenery or Sunset. The camera judges it
from various detection results including focus and brightness level of the
circumstance. You are free from choosing different settings every time the scene
changes when taking images with these frequently used Scene Modes to get
beautiful results.LUMIX Image Uploader
DMC-FH25 gives you a new form of communication by letting you share your photos
and movies. All you have to do is checkmark the photos and movies you want to
share and connect the camera or SD/SDHC/SDXC Memory Card to a computer.
Uploading automatically starts by simply following the guidance. Facebook can be
used for photos and YouTube for movies. You can join these social networking
services without having to install any special software. It's easy to share
photos and movies on the spot, which means that your friends don't have to wait
for you to come back home to see them.
Intelligent LCD
Detects the lighting conditions and controls the brightness level in 11 fine
steps, to display the most appropriate setting.Intelligent Exposure Light
Detection
The Intelligent Exposure function increases the exposure only in under-exposed
areas by detecting the brightness level part-by-part in the image. If the
background includes the sky, which tends to be easily washed out, the camera
automatically adjusts the aperture and shutter speed to keep the setting
slightly under-exposed to prevent wash-out while brightening the darkened area
by increasing the ISO only in that area. If the background of an indoor portrait
receives insufficient lighting from a flash and becomes dark, the ISO
sensitivity is raised in only the low-lit area to make it brighter without
causing graininess in the subject's face.
Scene Modes
A total of 28 modes, such as Baby, Pet and Sports, allows the user to choose the
setting and the camera do the rest. Users can also record the name/birthday of a
child or pet and embed the information in the photo and have it printed if
desired. The Scene Mode lets the camera make the optimal settings for you
automatically, so anybody can take superb photos with ease. The versatile Scene
Mode range, which handles just about any situation and subject type, is a major
LUMIX feature. And to make it even simpler to use, the icons and display are
designed for easy visibility. The DMC-FH25 lets you store a frequently used
Scene Mode setting in the My Scene Mode.Built-in memory 70MB
Take photos even when you don't have an SD/SDHC/SDXC Memory Card on hand. The
built-in memory holds up to approx. 70MB of image data, which you can later copy
to an SD/SDHC/SDXC Memory Card or computer. You can also copy images from a
memory card or computer to the built-in memory, and view them on the LCD anytime
you like. In addition to providing extra memory when your memory card fills up,
this is a great place to store your favorite photos so you can view them anytime
you want.
