The V-LUX 4 Digital Camera with Deluxe Accessory Kit from B&H Photo gives you what you need to start taking great pictures right out of the box. Just charge the included battery, insert the SD memory card, and start shooting. Not only does the kit include these accessories, but also a shoulder bag in which to safely store it all, an LCD screen protector, a UV protector filter and a 2-year extended warranty.
The V-LUX 4 Digital Camera from Leica is an advanced point-and-shoot camera with a newly developed 12.1 MP CMOS sensor and a Leica DC Vario-Elmarit lens with a 24x optical zoom with a range of focal lengths from 25-600mm in the 35mm format. Its fast aperture of f/2.8 throughout the zoom is equal to that of any professional grade interchangeable zoom lens. And the integrated optical image stabilizer will further reduce blur and the effects of camera shake on telephoto and low-light shots.
An increased ISO sensitivity range up to 6400 provides low-noise imagery in limited light and you can expect sharp details and saturated colors when shooting fast moving subjects in telephoto lengths. High image quality is true of video as well as still photography and the V-LUX 4 shoots Full HD 1080 AVCHD video at up to 60 frames per second. A one-touch dedicated button can switch you from video to photo and back again in an instant. A built-in stereo microphone with wind filter allows for quality audio to match your video.
For image composition the V-LUX 4 provides two options, an integrated high resolution (1.3 million pixels) electronic view finder and a 3.0" LCD screen. The view finder offers 100% image view and ultra sharp details for fine focusing, it also displays all the menu settings and capture options. The LCD, which provides superb playback, can tilt and rotate for composing from low-angles, from overhead or in a manner more discreet than bringing the camera to your eye.
