bpm2k-
It does indeed, which is where the anti-blur technology comes into play or so I’m told.

Shouldn’t the headline read ‘6x Optical Zoom’ instead of digital? Nobody really cares about digital zoom anyway, since it isn’t real and degrades your picture quality, unless you are taking photos with a setting other than the highest resolution and they can use some fancy logic to grab a higher resolution portion of the image when using digital zoom.

What is the 35mm equivalent on the zoom?

Assuming its and 1/1.7″ sized ccd like some Sony camara’s have a zoom range of ca 36-215mm 35mm equivalent

Why dont they make more 28-xxx range lenses. 36mm is toooo much tele to start with.
