The name “Luna” comes from the lens cover which is moon-shaped.
To make the panorama mode more effective(Japanese version only), a wide-angle 28-70mm f/5.6-7.8 zoom lens was used for this fully automatic autofocus compact camera. The 3-point Smart Autofocus system features high-precision Ai-AF which adjusts the near-infrared beam angle to suit the current focal length. The viewfinder employs a transparent LCD which lets you see where focus is achieved. The LCD also clearly displays the panorama frame and close-up frame when necessary. The Best Shot Dial, highly evaluated on the Autoboy S, is also retained on the camera back.
