Leica Debuts V-Lux 20

By Pardhasaradhi Gonuguntla

New York, New York – Reported by Elite Traveler, the Private Jet Lifestyle Magazine

The new LEICA V-LUX 20 compact camera is the perfect companion for any photographic event. Ready to capture any and all memories from backyard birthday parties to exotic excursions, the V-LUX 20 is equipped with 12.1 mega pixels, a high performance Leica 12x zoom lens plus GPS tagging and HD movie recording.

As the first Leica camera to feature GPS tagging, the V-LUX 20’s innovative tracking system allows photographers to record the exact geographical coordinates of their location (in the Exif data of each photo) automatically, as well as the local time for every shot, ensuring the user always has a useful and accurate record of their trip. In addition, the V-LUX 20 can display the names of interesting sightseeing locations from a total of 500,000 ‘points of interest’ across 73 countries.

The built-in GPS feature also makes archiving and organizing photos quick and easy, during or after a trip. Furthermore, for photographers posting images on social networks, image portals or map sites such as Google Maps or Google Earth, the data automatically reveals exactly when and where the photos were taken.*

For those who want to make movies as well as still images, the V-LUX 20 enables movie recording in HD quality. Its intelligent automatic features, such as face recognition, automatic scene modes and smart exposure, are all available in movie mode, together with the camera’s zoom functions.

The V-LUX 20’s generous three inch LCD display has a resolution of 460,000 pixels, and offers an extremely bright, sharp view for precise composition and framing of shots, as well as accurate quality control for captured shots in playback mode.
