Design and ergonomics
The nearly completely flat body of the L100, which is only 20mm thick and weighs only 114g, can very easily be slipped into a pocket. A mode dial with grooves for improved feel and a 2.5 inch LCD viewing screen makes both capturing and viewing of pictures easier.
Picture quality and lens
The camera’s 8.2 megapixel resolution allows for pictures to be blown up to larger than A2 size, which means there is ample room for picture cropping. The 3x optical zoom lens has the 35mm focal length equivalence of 34- 102mm. White balance can be adjusted and the auto-exposure is also programmable. An ISO sensitivity of up to 1600 produces superior pictures in low light conditions.
Key features
Taking portrait pictures with the camera is made far easier through the use of face detection technology, which automatically adjusts focus and exposure when a face is in view. Self portraits are also a breeze, as the camera gives a sound notice to let the user know when their face is in focus. Five levels of adjustment are available for sharpness, contrast and saturation, which along with digital image stabilisation and built-in red-eye reduction help to further improve picture quality. Eleven different shooting modes (children, landscape, close-up, text, sunset, dawn, backlight, fireworks, beach and snow, night, portrait) help to quickly achieve great pictures in all conditions. An automatic macro capability of up to 5cm proximity allows for easy close-up photography. The camera’s built-in Photo Help Guide assists the user step by step in understanding how to use all these features.
