Description

The DiMAGE A2 features Anti-Shake, a crucial function for successful imaging. Whether you're capturing an ultra-fine 8 megapixel still shot or a high-quality movie, Anti-Shake offers better results in so many situations: in dim lighting, at telephoto zoom end, and more. And, thanks to the Super Fine EVF, you'll enjoy an amazingly precise view of the scene under diverse conditions, complete with various shooting data displayed. There's also 3D AF, a fast and accurate way to keep moving subjects in sharp focus, plus a powerful 28 to 200 mm zoom lens. As all these features are built-in, the DiMAGE A2 is truly a convenient tool for dynamic imaging.
