Panasonic DMC-FX01

 

Very good image quality outdoor.High res large monitor.Very effective optical stabilizer.No distortion with standard photos.No chromatic aberration.Starry Sky mode that allows exposures up to 60 seconds. Solidly built.

Compression a bit too strong at the Fine setting.Some noise at all ISO levels. 16:9 mode not as well implemented as it should be.

A true feat of inspired engineering, Panasonic?s FX01 is the ultra-portable for the discerning photographer. Fast, sexy and featuring a world-first lens, the 6-megapixel camera combines legendary Leica optics with a luxurious set of features including...
