New dimensions in digital photography: The MINOX
DC 7411 keeps its slim figure when zooming!
Measuring just 18.5 mm in depth the new DC 7411 is the slimmest MINOX digital camera ever! This latest innovation from the optical specialists sets standards in the segment of high-power, ultra-flat pocket cameras. And it is not only the small measurements of the new digital camera that make this MINOX so pocket-friendly: weighing in at just 114 grams, this is a true flyweight. Fitted with a bright anodized metal body, a 3.0 inch monitor, electronic face detection and image stabilizer this delightfully handy camera is an ideal companion for every occasion.
The large TFT display of the MINOX DC 7411 takes up almost the entire back of the camera. Getting the subject in view and assessing the picture result afterwards is a real joy. The CCD image sensor with a resolution of up to 7.2 Megapixels as well as the powerful, multicoated MINOCTAR lens deliver exceptionally sharp and brilliant pictures. This MINOX DC 7411 even keeps its excellent figure when the internal 3x zoom function is selected: thanks to clever mirror alignment mechanics inside the body the incoming light beam is diverted and the lens remains in the same position, even when varying the focal length. An autofocus feature that is fast and precise in every situation as well as the short shutter delay enable spontaneous snapshots as well as a rapid picture sequence.
The high resolution of the sensor allows top-quality small poster prints and big enlargements when processing the images later on.

This feature also provides support for long exposures under difficult light conditions or for macro shots. An electronic face detection feature makes it easier and quicker to get portraits in focus. With the extreme macro function the photographer can capture a pin-sharp definition of objects at a distance of just ten millimeters.
Several flash functions and the possibility to adjust the sensitivity of the sensor from ISO 100 to ISO 1000 in five levels allow individual adjustment of the camera to outside conditions.
