Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX150: Tiny Camera that Packs a Punch!

"The Panasonic Lumix FX150 is one of Panasonic's top of the range ultra compact digital cameras, and features an impressive 14.7 megapixel sensor, a 28mm wide angle lens with a 3.6x optical zoom, a 2.7" screen that works in the sun, 720p HD (high-definition) video recording, optical image stabilisation and a pocketable metal body."

Even though this impressive camera is tiny, it still has 14.7 megapixels, image stabilization and 720p high definition video capability. It also boasts a 28mm wide angle lens for wider shots (most small cameras only go to 38mm). The camera's automatic controls get rave reviews plus you have manual controls which most small cameras skimp on. The only complaint I have is that the pictures are noisy - even at the lowest ISO setting (100). Over 400 ISO, noise becomes a real problem. For prints up to 8x10 and web pictures, you won't notice it. But Panasonic would have been better served cutting down the pixels thereby decreasing the noise. All in all, a very solid camera.


Featured Product
