Ski athletes on the scoop

National pride The Swiss alpine ski team missed all chances to appear on the medal table in Bormio. For the first time since 1966 in Portillo, Chile, there was no Swiss on the World Championship podium, which was no surprise given the course of the season so far, but the disappointment is still deep-seated. The advertising agency Jung von Matt/Limmat made this discovery of slowness the subject of an advertisement for the Lumix FZ10. With a shutter release delay of just 0.008 seconds, the digital camera does exactly what the index finger says. That means: always sharp photos, even of fast-moving objects. Not a camera for the Swiss Ski Team - but ideal for people who like it fast, but without jerks.
