EUROPE, March 11, 2011 - BenQ announced an expansion of its C-series digital camera lineup for Europe with the new C1460 today. The 14-megapixel C1460 features a remarkable 25mm wide-angle lens, powerful 5x optical zoom, 5cm super macro focus, 720p HD movie recording and a full set of image enhancement features, making it an ideal point-and-shoot camera for consumers seeking for high image quality and straightforward usability, at an affordable price point.

Wider Views, More Fun
Equipped with currently the widest lens available from BenQ, a 25mm wide-angle lens, C1460 is able to capture broad-angled view in greater width and depth from the same shooting point in comparison with a standard 35mm lens, delivering the view needed for a spectacular mountainous landscape or a large group photo shot. The powerful 5x optical zoom makes it possible to capture detailed photos even when the subjects are of a distance; whilst the 5cm Super Macro function allows it to capture subjects such as a dew-speckled blossom or an intricately textured tapestry in incredible detail with an intimate feel.

Panorama PanCapture and Other Stunning Features
The C1460 comes with an array of picture-enhancing functions which makes photo-taking fun and effortlessly. The Panorama PanCapture function allows users to take a sweeping view of natural scenery by simply taking three adjacent shots which are then auto-stitched into one seamlessly. With this function, you will be able to show friends and family the scenery as a whole, rather than separate images. The “Face Beautifier” beautifies the skin tone and softens the blemishes of the subjects in the picture whilst the Smile Detection function allows users to capture the perfect spontaneous smiles their love ones.

HD Movie Recording
Fret not when even all those functions may not capture what you need, as AA-battery powered C1460 provides 720p HD movie recording, for the times when even one second is precious to miss.

The BenQ C1460 digital camera comes in black and silver and will be available in March 2011.
