A built-in digital image stabiliser is provided, along with the latest Face Chaser technology for still photos, which can recognise up to 12 faces in one shot. The function automatically sets the camera’s exposure and focus. Super macro shooting lets users get as close as 1cm from subjects when the lens is set to wide-angle and a high speed sequential shooting function allows up to 10 photos to be taken at five frames/second.
Photos and movies are easily copied and loaded on a personal computer and shared online through blogs, video-sharing websites, social networking sites and personal websites. The SANYO Xacti VPC-CG9 will be available from May at Camera House stores across Australia. Visit www.sanyo.com.au for more information.
