(Portrait)
Even in the shade and other conditions where lighting
is dim, flesh tones come out bright and clear.
(Night Scene)
Glamorous night lighting creates a romantic background for the foreground subject.
(Twilight)
A purple filter brings out colors that create surrealistic evening scenes.
(Scenery)
The beautiful blue of the sky combines with the refreshing green of the trees
to create an image of striking beauty.
(Retro)
A sepia filter helps to create portraits and scenery shots that recall
images of days gone by.

Monochrome tones provide a level of digital image expression that is
not possible with color.

the type of shot you want to record and the EXILIM sets up automatically.

The world's thinnest* digital camera

4X playback zoom
Playback images can be zoomed up to four times their original size on the clear, high-resolution built-in
monitor screen, providing you with an up-close view of any part of the image you want.
Quick and easy snapshot resizing
The Macro Mode of the EX-Z4 lets you move in to distances ranging
from 50 cm to as close as 6 cm for really intimate close ups of
everything from portraits to flowers, pets, food, and more. The Macro
Mode also supports zooming in the range of 1X to 1.8X.
Take your favorite images along anywhere
Memory includes a "Favorites" folder that you can use to store images of that special someone,
your pet, or just about anything else you want. Images in the "Favorites" folder are not displayed
during the normal image playback operation, so your personal images remain private. The "Favorites"
folder resides in the Exilim's built-in memory, so they are always on hand, even if you change to
another memory card.
Quick and easy snapshot resizing
Key Customize helps to make digital imaging easier and more enjoyable than ever before.
After you assign recording mode selection, exposure compensation, flash mode selection,
or white balance setting to the button, you can press it to cycle through settings and
select the one you want, without going through the on-screen menus.
