Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS5
Thursday, May 29th, 2008
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS5 and the DMC FS20 have almost the same style and features including a 10.1 megapixel resolution and a 30 to 120 mm wide angle zoon lens and 4x opticla lens that’s great for those who want to get shots up close and personal.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS5’s 2.5 inches LCD display is a bit smaller than the 3-inch LCD by FS20. Storign your images is not a problem as you can rely on the 50MB built-in memory plus the memory cards including SD, SDHC and MMC.
The camera includes a Lithium Ion battery pack which can take 300 shots per charge compared to the 280 shots in the FS20 and you have to thank the slightly smaller LCD of the FS5 for that.
This point and shot digital camera is reasonably priced and an be easily slipped in your pocket. One feature you willl surely look forward to is the Intelligent Scene Selector which automatically senses the environment when the shots are taken. Thus, your camera automatically chooses the appropriate mode for any photo including Portrait, Scenery, Night or Macro.
