20.1MP HAD CCD sensor
See the life in every shot – a 20.1 effective megapixel Super HAD CCD sensor delivers images packed with detail.

Bring the world closer with 63x optical zoom
A huge 63x optical zoom can bring even the furthest subjects right up close to you – and without sacrificing any detail.

No shakes or judders with Optical SteadyShot
The lens moves gyroscopically and compensates for movements caused by shooting handheld, for amazingly sharp pictures across the focal range.

Handle like a pro
Get the feel and look of a DLSR with easy-to-use controls and an ergonomic grip. Buttons and features are carefully placed and easy to reach, just like a professional camera.

Intelligent Auto
The H400 automatically adjusts camera settings to suit your shooting conditions.

Advanced flash
Indoors, at dusk, or at night-time – boosted sensitivity means brighter-looking pictures.

Shoot for longer
A compact, large capacity X-type lithium-ion battery stays powered for longer, so you don’t have to worry about preserving your battery charge on a day out.

Electronic Viewfinder
An electronic viewfinder gives you a high-resolution, real-time preview of your shot with minimal reflection, even when shooting in bright sunlight.

LCD screen
View pictures instantly and see footage as you record thanks to the built-in 3” (7.5cm) LCD display. Images appear bright and clear on the screen, exactly the way you see them.

Fast, fun movies
Shoot crisp, smooth footage in an instant. Hit the dedicated movie recording button and record blur-free 720 HD images with digital sound.

Spark your creativity
The H400 is packed with a range of shooting technologies to help you get those creative juices flowing – including Picture Effect, Sweep Panorama, and Party Mode.
