"longDescription": "The Minolta ProShot MN40Z Bridge Camera features a long-reaching 40x optical zoom along with versatile recording capabilities in a small and compact body. Its 20.68MP BSI CMOS sensor enables high-resolution stills shooting and 1080P FHD video recording with low noise and sensitivity from ISO 100-3200. The expansive zoom covers a 24-960mm equivalent focal length range for working with subjects both near and far and is complemented by a 4x digital zoom that sets the combined total at 160x magnification. Optical image stabilization helps minimize the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting, which can be paramount when shooting at extremely long focal lengths. The rear of the camera features 3.0\" 460k-dot LCD monitor for easy review and composition of your images. Built-in wireless connection to your smartphone is available for image transfer and remote control, while the included 32GB SD card ensures your pictures remain safely stored. Powered by 3x AAA alkaline batteries, the MN40Z is a trust photo capture companion anywhere you go.",
