The lens on the DL mini Zoom goes from 28mm at f4.5 to 56mm at f7.5\u00a0 neither of these apertures are particularly fast but that is the tradeoff for a compact wide zoom.\u00a0 The lens is comprised of 7 elements in 6 groups.\u00a0 The camera has a good number of functions and settings for a point and shoot including manual focusing which is rare. Looking at some of my images I probably should have resorted to using manual focus particularly through glass as the active autofocus is not able to deal with that situation.\u00a0 Something to be aware of is that the DL mini Zoom will take a picture if you mash the shutter down whether it has achieved focus or not.\u00a0 There is +-2 stops of exposure compensation also a rarity for a point and shoot and nice for situations like backlighting and snow scenes or maybe when you want things a little darker.\u00a0 This camera came out in 1999 which is twenty years ago as of this writing but honestly it looks and feels more modern than most of the digital cameras that soon followed it. A previous post on this camera can be seen here.\u00a0 Fuji DL Mini Zoom<\/a><\/p>\n\n\t\t
