LEICA V-LUX 1 - Manual (Page 11)

High-speed image processing With its high-performance image signal processor
the LEICA V-LUX 1 offers a very short shutter delay of just 9 milliseconds prefo-
cused and 0.8 seconds between 2 pictures. In combination with the short switch-
on delay of some 0.7 seconds the V-Lux 1 provides for truly spontaneous shots.
You will never miss the right moment again.

Always ready for action A lightning response. In series. Thanks to high-speed image processing.
Razor-sharp clear pictures. Even when in a rush. Such quality is assured by the integrated image stabilizer
of the V-Lux 1.
Noise reduction The LEICA V-LUX 1 is equipped with a new integrated image processor so that pictures can be taken
with a film speed of max. ISO 1600 with full resolution. The noise reduction system combats picture noise in several
processing stages. In the first stage the critical noise is identified and separated into chrominance and luminance
noise. The remaining noise is then minimized in a noise reduction process. Chromatic aberration is also reduced, pro-
ducing brilliant results right into the corners of pictures.
Ideal for nature observation With its magnification in the super-telephoto range
the LEICA V-LUX 1 corresponds to the 10 x magnification of binoculars, making it
an ideal addition for nature observation. The binoculars offer a maximum level of
detail and great comfort when observing nature for long periods while the V-Lux 1
delivers high-quality shots in the same range of magnification. Here the integrated
image stabilization system is a major advantage.
MEGA O.I.S. image stabilization The LEICA V-LUX 1 is equipped with an integrated optical image stabilization
system, which enhances the outstanding lens performance even further. It compensates for blur from shake,
caused by the natural movement of the hand. Even very minor movements of the hand are detected with a scanning
frequency of 4000 hertz. This means that the V-Lux 1 can also deliver razor-sharp images without a tripod in many
situations.
