And you're sure to be impressed by the quality of the 3 Megapixel ClearVid™ CMOS Sensor viewed through a Carl Zeiss® Vario-Sonnar® T* Lens. 3.0 Megapixel (Gross) ClearVid™ CMOS Sensor 1/2.9" ClearVid™ CMOS Sensor with 3040K (effective) pixels provides stunning detail and clarity with exceptional video (up to 530 lines of horizontal resolution) and still image performance. The Megapixel technology enhances your digital videos and digital still (3040K) photography performance. 10X Optical/20X Digital Zoom The optical zoom helps to bring the action close up from far away. In addition, the Digital Zoom interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms. Professional Quality Carl Zeiss® VarioSonnar® T Lens Carl Zeiss lenses have an advanced optical multi-layer coating for increased contrast. This results in vivid image brilliance, true-to-life color saturation and perfect renditions of subtle tones. The additional T coating on the lens further reduces unwanted glare and flare.
