The Japan-based manufacturer has added a 20.2MP sensor and 25x zoom lens into the compact camera, as stated above. The latter will offer a full-frame focal length equivalent of 25-625mm, meaning that it will be useful for various photography types.

Users will be able to capture architecture, street, portrait, sports, and bird photos with a single camera. That makes a difference for a lot of people, who will also get to enjoy a 3-inch display with a 922K-dot resolution.
