A slim, compact configuration that measures a mere 20.8 mm at the thinnest point houses a powerful 7X zoom lens. A dual speed zoom lever provides easy zoom adjustment no matter what type of image you are trying to record. A low noise design means you can perform zoom operations during movie recording without worrying about noise in the movie audio track.
No Deterioration Zoom lets you move in even closer than the optical zoom capabilities of the lens while maintaining image quality that is equivalent to that of optical zoom.* Unlike standard digital zoom that enlarges an extracted part of the original image, No Deterioration Zoom can zoom a 4M size image 10X. * Comparing images of the same size.
The camera finds the face in the image and focuses on it automatically.
Face brightness is adjusted automatically for natural looking expressions.
The focus frame automatically follows the movement of the subject and maintains focus on the face.
The camera focuses on the wrong face, causing the one you want to be out of focus
The camera automatically adjusts the focus and brightness of a pre-registered family member's face.
After a face is registered on the camera, it automatically finds the face in an image and gives it priority for focus and brightness settings.
* There may be some cases where the highest priority assignment of face recognition does not apply to the pre-recorded face of a family member, depending on the person's facial expression, shooting conditions, or other factors.
Face recognition uses face recognition technology provided by the OKI Face Sensing Engine (FSE), which is a built-in image processing engine.

Shooting a dark scene where image blur due to hand movement tends to occur shifts the CCD for mechanical correction and clearer images.
Higher sensitivity and faster shutter speeds reduce the chance of image blur due to subject movement, making it possible to capture clear images without using the flash.
Subjject is moving :
Subject movement causes the ISO sensitivity setting to be increased and raises the shutter speed automatically.
Subjject is Stopped :
When the subject is still, the ISO setting is reduced automatically to minimize the chance of digital noise being generated in the image.
The effects of hand movement can be minimized during movie recording.
The effects of hand movement also can be corrected for during movie playback as well.
