The compact camera that uses sophisticated technology to combine 10 different images into a single, stunningly detailed photo.
Light's advanced image-processing engine captures 52 megapixels of rich data, creating high-quality images with striking details, realistic colors, and significantly less noise. Photographers have the creative freedom they need to zoom, crop, enlarge, and ultimately bring their vision to life.
Equipped with a broad, optical zoom range of 28-150mm, the L16 offers the versatility of traditional zoom lenses in a compact, lightweight design.
Unlike most cameras, the L16 captures multiple images at different exposure values. When combined, final photos boast an impressively wide dynamic range—around 13 stops.
Weighing just less than a pound, the L16 offers convenience without sacrificing quality. Now, photographers can take professional-quality photos wherever they go.
The L16's 5-inch, high-definition touchscreen displays a live preview of each photo before capture. An intuitive interface combined with real-time exposure adjustments allow photographers to set up the perfect shot on the go.
Built with a powerful 4120mAh lithium-ion battery, the L16 was designed to last for 8 hours of continuous use. That translates to ~400 back-to-back captures.
All L16 cameras improve over time. Light sends regular wireless software updates that improve the camera’s speed, functionality, and performance. Learn about newly added features in the L16 release notes.
The L16's intelligent software senses light and shifts in stability, automatically adjusting the camera's exposure for optimal performance. Tripod and low-light assist features help photographers take the best photos, no matter where they are.
Powered by a custom chipset, the Light Lux Capacitor was specifically engineered to control a high number of cameras simultaneously. It was designed and built by Light engineers and is truly one of a kind.
