Press Release

Hamburg, December 2011 -- Rollei continues its Powerflex series: the Powerflex 400 is the latest entry-level model from Rollei. Standard equipment includes a 5x zoom lens and a 2.7-inch LCD screen with 230,000-pixel resolution. A larger 25mm wide-angle lens in 35-mm format helps to produce sharp images even at long distances. With its ultra-slim, stylish body (18.4 mm), it is eye-catching and will fit effortlessly in any jacket pocket. Using 720p HD video function (1280x720) you can even film clips with autofocus and zoom. And with a possible SD /SDHC memory capacity of up to 32 GB there are no limits to the fun you can have filming videos.

The Powerflex 400 offers a wide range of options with 32 shooting modes. These include standard programmes such as portrait and night shots, but there are also more experimental functions like Lomo, sketch or toy, as well as the new snapshot function, which make it a real fun camera.
