The DMC-TZ3/TZ2
Ultra-compact with Luxurious Exterior
The DMC-TZ3/TZ2 is more compact than the previous model,* and has been given a more luxurious touch with its stylish design and metallic, stainless-steel exterior. Newly integrated lens barrier takes the place of the lens cap, to ensure that it never gets lost again. This is a camera that you will want to take with you always.
*The DMC-TZ1
MC-TZ3/TZ2 features a 28mm wide-angle* 10x optical zoom Leica DC lens (equivalent to a 28mm-280mm zoom on a 35mm film camera) in an ultra-compact body. With the wide-angle lens, you can get all your friends in the picture or capture an expansive landscape in a single shot. And with the high-power 10x optical zoom, you can get clear, beautiful shots even when you can’t get close to your subject. The lens unit comprises eleven elements in nine groups, with three aspherical lenses, including dual-sided aspherical meniscus lens, to achieve high optical performance while preserving compactness. The dual-sided aspherical meniscus lens represent a major achievement in mass-produced lens elements, and enable the remarkable 28 to 280mm range of focal lengths in this compact body. Inheriting the fine rendering and outstanding quality of the LEICA ELMAR lens, this easy-to-carry camera delivers beautiful pictures any time, any place.
* Converted to standard 35mm film camera equivalent, at the maximum wide position.
The 28mm wide-angle lens lets you easily capture large groups of people indoors or expansive architectural structures and scenes with dynamic width and rich perspective, even from short distances.
The 10x optical zoom lets you easily capture and magnify distant subjects, and also produces impressive photos with soft-focused backgrounds. The 10x optical zoom ratio can be extended up to 15x (DMC-TZ3, 35mm equivalent: 420mm) / 13.8x (DMC-TZ2, 35mm equivalent: 386mm) at resolutions of 3-megapixel or less, by using the central part of the CCD. Adding the Extra Optical Zoom to the 4x digital zoom** extends the total zooming power to a maximum of 60x (DMC-TZ3, 35mm equivalent: 1680mm) / 55x (DMC-TZ2, 35mm equivalent: 1540mm).
