Advanced O.I.S. and 42x Optical Zoom
If you have a powerful zoom, you need optical image stabiliser
This 42x zoom lens has the power you need to take dramatic closeups or get remarkable shots
of even distant subjects. But with long-distance zoom shots, even a tiny bit of hand shake
has a huge effect on picture quality. That's where image stabilisation comes in. Panasonic's
Advanced O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabiliser) shifts a corrective lens as you shoot to eliminate the
effects of hand shake, so you get clear, sharp, blur-free shots even at high zoom levels.

Panasonic's Advanced O.I.S. is a new image stabilising
function that achieves around eight times higher precision
than our previous system. The system uses gyro-sensors to detect hand-
shake, then shifts a lens and adjusts its optical axis to compensate.
Advanced O.I.S. enables finer, more effective hand-shake compensation.
