When the jitter alert appears, take special care with the shooting methods described on P28, or use a tripod for best results. By combining the use of a tripod with the self-timer (P47), you can avoid blurring caused when you press the shutter button. Shutter speed will be slower particularly in the following cases. Keep the camera still from the moment the shutter button is pressed until the picture appears on the screen. We recommend using a tripod.

(However, the aperture value and the shutter speed do not turn red when the flash is activated.) The brightness of the screen may differ from the brightness of the recorded pictures especially when recording in low light conditions. When most of the subjects in the screen are bright (e.g. blue sky on a clear day, snowy field, etc.), the recorded pictures may become dark. In this case, compensate the exposure value on the camera.

You can also press the shutter button halfway to finish. When the flash output is adjusted, the flash output value appears on the upper left of the screen. The flash output setting is memorized even if the camera is turned off. In Auto mode [0], motion picture mode [i], and [SCENERY] (P63), [NIGHT SCENERY] (P64), [FIREWORKS] (P66), [STARRY SKY] (P67), [AERIAL PHOTO] (P68) or [HIGH SENS.] (P68) in scene mode, you cannot adjust the flash output.
Do not look directly at the flash at close range when it is activated. Do not bring the flash too close to objects or close the flash while it is activated. The objects may be discolored by its heat or lighting. Do not cover the photo flash with your fingers or any other items.
In economy mode, the LCD monitor turns off and the status indicator blinks while the flash is charged. [This does not happen when using the AC adaptor (DMW-AC5; optional).] If the remaining battery power is low, the length of time that the LCD monitor turns off to charge may become longer. The flash icon turns red when activating the flash and pressing the shutter button halfway. When the jitter alert appears, we recommend using a tripod. When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted properly and the picture may become bright or dark. When taking a picture with the flash, the white balance will be automatically adjusted [except for [x] (Daylight), [ ] (Flash)], but the white balance may not be properly adjusted if the photo flash is insufficient. (P82) When the shutter speed is fast, the flash effect may not be sufficient. When you repeat taking a picture, recording may be disabled even if the flash is activated. Take a picture after the access indication disappears. When the flash is being charged, the flash icon blinks red, and you cannot take a picture even when you press the shutter button fully. Do not close the flash immediately after using a secondary light source, for example AUTO/Red-eye reduction [s]. Doing so can damage the camera. The red-eye reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject was far away from the camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident. When you set burst mode or auto bracket, only 1 picture is recorded for every flash activated. You can extend the shutter speed by up to 1/8 by using exposure compensation. Sand or seawater may cause the camera to malfunction. Make sure that sand or seawater does not come in touch with the flash.

You can also record with manual focus in motion picture mode [i]. When starting the recording, the focus is fixed. When you focus on the subject in Wide, the focus may not be adequate in Tele. In this case, focus on the subject again. The MF assistance does not appear in digital zoom range. The distance shown shows roughly how far away the point of focus is. Use the MF assistance to make final adjustments to the focus. After canceling power save mode, focus on the subject again. When setting the manual focus, you cannot set the continuous AF (P90). The AF lock is released when you select manual focus.

Taking Close-up pictures

This mode allows you to take close-up pictures of the subject, e.g. When taking pictures of flowers. You can take pictures approaching the subject at a distance up to 5 cm (0.16 feet) from the lens by rotating the zoom lever upmost to Wide (1). Use a tripod and the self-timer (P47) for best results. When the subject is close to the camera, the effective focus range (depth of field) is significantly narrowed. Therefore, you will have difficulty in focusing on the subject if the distance between the camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the subject. When the camera lens is at a distance beyond the available range from the subject, the subject may not be focused even if the focus indication lights. AF Macro mode gives priority to a subject close to the camera. Therefore it takes longer for the camera to focus in macro mode than in standard AF mode [AF] when the subject is 50 cm (1.64 feet) or more away. The available flash range is about 60 cm (1.97 feet) to 4.9 m (16.08 feet) (Wide). (This is applied when you set the ISO sensitivity to [AUTO].) We recommend setting the flash to Forced OFF [v] when you take pictures at close range. It is normal for the resolution of the edges of pictures taken with [AFw] at short distances to be lower.

Aspect ratio is the ratio of the width and the height of the picture. By changing the aspect ratio, you can select an angle of view that matches the subject. You cannot select [ ] when recording motion pictures [i] with a card. You cannot select [j] or [ ] when recording motion pictures [i] with the built-in memory. The ends of the recorded pictures may be cut at printing. (P126)

Self portrait mode

This mode allows you to take a picture of yourself. n Technique for Self-portrait mode When you are focused by pressing the shutter button halfway, the self-timer indicator lights up. Fix the camera firmly and then press the shutter button fully.

Food mode

Use this mode to take pictures of food in restaurants, irrespective of the lighting, so that the natural colors of the subject come out.
A blinking self-timer lamp indicates that the camera has not focused. Press the shutter button halfway again to focus. The captured picture automatically appears for about 10 seconds on the LCD monitor for reviewing. Refer to P35 for operations on the review function. When the picture may be blurred by slow shutter speed, we recommend using the 2 seconds self-timer. (P47) The available focus range is 30 cm (0.98 feet) to 70 cm (2.3 feet). You can take a picture of yourself with audio (P87). In this time, the self-timer indicator lights up while recording the audio. When you select self-portrait mode [c], the zoom lever is automatically moved to Wide (1). If you rotate the zoom lever, it will become difficult to focus. The self-timer can be set to [OFF] or [2SEC.]. (P47) When you set to [2SEC.], it is kept until the camera is turned off or the mode dial is rotated. The stabilizer function is fixed to [MODE2]. (P50) The AF mode is fixed to 9-area-focusing. (P88) The setting on the AF assist lamp is disabled.
The focus range is 5 cm (0.16 feet) (Wide)/30 cm (0.98 feet) (Tele) to Z.

Party mode

Select this mode when you want to take pictures at wedding receptions, indoor parties, etc. Both the people and the background can be recorded with brightness in real life by using the flash and slowing down the shutter speed.
n Technique for Party mode Open the flash. (P43) Due to the slow shutter speed, use a tripod and the self-timer (P47) for best results. We recommend taking pictures by rotating the zoom lever to Wide (1), and being at a distance about 1.5 m (4.92 feet) from the subject. The flash setting can be set to Forced ON/ Red-eye reduction [q] or Slow sync./ Red-eye reduction [u].

Strange colors appear around the edge of the image. File numbers are not created in order. The file numbers are recorded in ascending order.
Causes The camera may get a little warm while you are using it, but this is normal. When brightness has changed due to the zoom or the movement of the camera or other, the lens may click and the picture on the screen may be drastically changed, however, the pictures are not affected. The sound is caused by automatic adjustment of the aperture. It is not a malfunction. If you do not use the camera for a long time, the clock setting may be reset. When the message [PLEASE SET THE CLOCK] appears, set the clock again. (P20) When you take a picture before setting the clock, [0:00 0. 0. 0] is recorded. Depending on the zoom magnification, the picture may have some colored fringes around the subject. This is called chromatic aberration and may be more visible when recording distant subjects. However this is not a malfunction. Certain operations cause pictures to be saved in folders with different numbers. (P108) If the battery is inserted or removed when the camera is not turned off, the recorded folder numbers are lost. However if you turn the camera on again and record pictures, the recorded folder numbers are different from the prior recorded folder numbers.

Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LX2 With Triple-Wide Features Featuring Intelligent Image Stabilizer by MEGA O.I.S. and Worlds First* Intelligent ISO Control
*For a digital still camera, as of July 19, 2006
Panasonic today introduced the Lumix DMC-LX2, successor to the DMC-LX1, which has received high acclaim worldwide for its unique 16:9 wide CCD, plentiful functions, and smart design. The DMC-LX2 inherits the f/2.8 28mm wide angle LEICA DC lens, 4x optical zoom (equivalent to 28mm to 112mm on a 35mm film camera) and MEGA O.I.S.(Optical Image Stabilizer) system in addition to an enhanced CCD capable of 10.2-megapixels and larger 2.8 16:9 wide LCD. The DMC-LX2 is unique in that it incorporates triple-wide features of 28 mm wide angle LEICA DC lens, 16:9 wide CCD and 16:9 wide LCD. Not only that, the LX2 is further distinguished from other cameras by its full manual controllability with a joystick allowing users to easily enjoy creative shooting. The DMC-LX2 also boasts Venus Engine III high performance image processing LSI to dramatically reduce the noise that challenged the predecessor, realizing image recording at max. ISO 1600 high sensitivity setting at full resolution. To fight against the major cause of blurred images, Panasonic invented the MEGA O.I.S. system taking advantage of its superior lens technology to compensate for handshake a feature which has long been incorporated into the LUMIX range of cameras. In addition, to also compensate for the other major cause of blurred images movement of the subject the LX2 is also equipped with the worlds first* Intelligent ISO Control (hereafter I.I.C.) and max. ISO 1600 high sensitivity recording capabilities within the advanced image processing LSI Venus Engine III. When set to the I.I.C., the Venus Engine III detects the subjects movement and adjusts the ISO setting and shutter speed to best suit the subject movement and the light condition automatically. Panasonics excellent image stabilizing system allows users to take clear, crisp images in any situation automatically, leaving everything to the camera. The LUMIX LX series are distinct from other compact cameras in the way they feature extensive manual controls including manual focus and manual exposure which can be smoothly operated with a joystick. This joystick further provides operation shortcuts to the frequently used settings including white balance, ISO, image size, compression format, light metering and AF mode by simply pressing and holding it. It also allows exposure compensation and selection of one out of nine focusing areas. The aspect ratio is easily selectable between 16:9 wide, 3:2 and conventional 4:3 with a switch located on top of the lens barrel to shoot in the framing aspect that best suits the subjects composition or images purpose of use.

In addition, the DMC-LX2 is capable of recording wide 16:9 high definition (1280 x 720) motion image at 15 fps. The other features that elevate the DMC-LX2 is the incorporation of 13 MB of built-in memory while the battery life is extended up to 300 pictures* on one charging, not to let you miss those great spur-of-the-moment shots. A print mode has been added to the mode dial so that you can print the images quickly and bundled software allows users to edit and develop RAW files. The unique 16:9 wide CCD and 28mm wide angle LEICA DC lens provide a unique view of the world and which is refined by the Panasonics excellent image stabilizing systems of MEGA O.I.S., the high sensitivity recording and the I.I.C. The LUMIX DMC-LX2 is like no other compact camera, enabling both highend amateurs and entry-level users to explore the creativeness that surely enhances the joy of shooting.

* Based on the CIPA standard.
1. 10.2-megapixel 16:9 aspect CCD and f/2.8 28mm wide angle 4x optical zoom LEICA DC Lens The DMC-LX2 features a 10.2-megapixel 16:9 aspect CCD and f/2.8 4x optical zoom 28mm wide angle* (equivalent to 28 mm to 112 mm on a 35 mm film camera) LEICA DC VARIO-ELMARIT lens. Incorporating three aspherical lenses provides high optical performance while preserving the compactness of the unit. The aspect ratio can be easily selected between 16:9 or 3:2 in addition to the conventional 4:3 with a switch on the lens barrel on a shot-by-shot-basis to best suit the composition of the image. Even after shooting, the 16:9 ratio can be converted to 3:2 or 4:3 with the camera according to your purpose of use. The Extra Optical Zoom, made possible by using the center part of 10.2megapixel high resolution CCD, further extends the zoom ratio to 5.5x for 5megapixel image recording in 16:9 aspect with minimal deterioration.

* In 16:9 aspect ratio.

2. More than just a MEGA O.I.S., LUMIXs image stabilizing system further evolves ___ Taking advantage of its superior lens technology, Panasonic invented the MEGA O.I.S.(Optical Image Stabilizer) to fight against the major cause of blurred images. It compensates for handshake and is now featured on the entire LUMIX range, and having been highly evaluated and appreciated by the users across the world. Every slight hand-shake movement is detected accurately with the sampling frequency at 4,000 times per second and will be compensated to render clear, sharp images. In addition, movement of the subject, the other major cause of blurred images, is suppressed by the advanced image processing LSI Venus Engine III with the Intelligent ISO Control (hereafter I.I.C.) and max.ISO1600 high sensitivity

recording capabilities. The worlds first incorporation* of this I.I.C. allows the automatic adjustment of the suitable ISO setting and shutter speed that best suits the situation by analyzing the speed of subject movement. If the subject is moving, the ISO setting would automatically rise to allow high shutter speed. On the other hand, if the subject is still and no movement is detected, you can take beautiful natural images with a low ISO setting. ___Accordingly the new LUMIX automatically takes the best countermeasures against any causes of blurred images with MEGA O.I.S. compensating for handshake and the I.I.C. compensating for movement of the subject. Image stabilizing system is further evolving with LUMIX.

3. Dramatically reduced noise with Venus Engine III The DMC-LX2 adopts the Venus Engine III to realize high sensitivity recording at max. ISO 1600 at full resolution. The noise reduction system is greatly improved by removing noise at the processing stages in series. First, critical noise is roughly undraped and the chromatic noise and the luminance noise are separated to respectively go through the supplemental noise reduction process so that the remaining noise is appropriately minimised. Despite the significantly increased performance of the camera, the Venus Engine III consumes only 80% of the power utilized by the Venus Engine II and is able to achieve a longer battery life of 300 pictures (CIPA) on a single charge. With its multi-task image processing capability, the Venus Engine III also boasts outstanding response time with a shutter release time lag of as short as 0.009 sec*. minimum and the shutter interval of 0.6 sec*. The DMC-LX2 enables easy capture of those spur-of-the-moment shots. The DMC-LX2 also allows unlimited consecutive shooting up to the capacity of the SD/SDHC memory card**.

* Not including the time for AF. **The number of recordable pictures depends on the memory card size, battery life, picture size and image compression.
4. Joystick-operated intuitive full manual control The easy-to-use joystick operation and good design, which were part of the highly acclaimed trademarks of the predecessor, are inherited by the DMC-LX2. The joystick was incorporated to facilitate operational ease and thereby get the best technical advantage of the multitude of functions offered by the camera. With the joystick it is possible to set focus and exposure manually, and also quickly shortcut to frequently used variables by just pressing and holding the joystick even while monitoring a subject on the LCD. The predecessor LX1 contained white balance adjustment, ISO setting, image size setting and compression format in its shortcut menu, and the light metering and AF mode settings are now added for the new LX2. It also allows the exposure compensation and selection of one out of nine focusing areas. A switch on the side of the lens barrel lets you quickly change the focus mode

between MF, AF or Macro AF. When you focus in the Manual Focus mode, not only the focus distance but also the DOF (depth of field) according to the zoom range and aperture is displayed. An MF assist function enlarges the center of the image to make focusing easier. The focusing area can be enlarged up to 4x and is movable, which also contributes to easy and comfortable manual focusing._ 5. Crystal-clear, large 16:9 wide 2.8-inch LCD To express the best of the extensive 16:9 wide image recording, a 2.8 wide and large 207 k high resolution LCD is newly equipped. The pixel mixed readout method performed at the CCD achieves high sensitivity to offer sufficient brightness for easy shooting even in low-lit situations. The Power LCD function boosts the brightness level by 40% to secure clear view even in sunny outdoors. The High Angle mode makes the display extremely easy to view from low angles, for example, when holding the camera up high to take pictures over a crowd and can be accessed easily and quickly by using the dedicated button. 6. High definition 16:9 wide motion image recording The DMC-LX2 is capable of recording the 4:3 VGA(640 x 480) and 16:9 wide VGA(848 x 480) motion image recording at 30 fps. Shooting is one thing but viewing is another, and you will be suitably impressed by the 16:9 moving image when it is displayed on a wide screen TV. In addition, the LX2 can record motion images even in high definition (1280 x 720) format at 15 fps. The pixel mixed readout method assists the bright motion image recording even in low lit situation. 7. Faster AF The AF mode can be selected according to the shooting situation: 9-point, 3point high speed, 1-point high speed, 1-point normal speed and Spot. In the 1-point and 1-point high speed AF mode, the AF area is selectable from the nine focusing areas with the joystick to best fit the composition of the subjects. Also, the AF assist lamp helps quick, accurate focusing in situations where focusing is difficult due to the lack of light. The AF/AE lock button is also succeeded from the predecessor. 8. A Variety of Scene Modes and Other Features to Enrich Your Photography An even larger variety of scene modes are contained a total of seventeen* scene modes to assist you in a wide range of photographic situations. The newly incorporated Beach mode is perfect for shooting in strong sunlight and the Aerial mode assists with shooting through the windows of an aeroplane. High Sensitivity** mode is made possible by the pixel-mixed readout method by the CCD, is ideal for shooting moving subjects clearly without blurring at a maximum sensitivity setting of ISO 3200. For additional improvement, the Print mode is also added to the mode dial of the LX2 so that you can make prints by just connecting the camera to Pictbridge 4 Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.
