Both series have a 3 inch wide screen TFT LCD colour display and electronic image stabilisation. This also includes an SD/SHC card slot that supports up to 8GB for high quality stills.
The A series weighs in at 495 grams and uses MPEG-4 video to capture high resolution images. It has a 10x optical zoom, and a 80x digital zoom with a CMOS sensor. There are two models in the A range, the Gigashot A40F which holds a 40GB hard drive ad retails at £679 and the Gigashot A100F which has 100GB of space and retails for £849.
