Review Summary

I travel the world and take a lot of photos, always needing a pocket-sized camera.You can catch my review on [...]for more detail, but I have tested this LUMIX model against the higher end LUMIX models, and other than this camera's ZOOM being less, this beat 'em all for indoor, outdoor, action, night & video quality. I can't explain why, but maybe Panasonic's engineers can.I also tested against a few of the new Canon lineup, including the Canon SX20 and SD940 28mm - and shockingly this DMC-FS7 LUMIX outperformed. In fact, the WVGA video is a fraction the file size and the quality compares closely with Canon HD. I also realized I'm not a huge fan of wide angle lens distortion, though better for real estate shots.BUY THIS CAMERA BEFORE THEY REPLACE THE MODEL. Don't waste your money on anything else. Believe me, I have done the Ken Rockwell test on quite a few of them.Happy Shooting!

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS7K digital camera features iA Mode for One-Touch Beauty. Just press the iA button, aim and shoot. The camera does all the rest, automatically activating four detection and correction functions. These include MEGA O.I.S., which helps prevent blurring due to shaky hands and Intelligent ISO Control, which helps prevent motion blur when the subject won't stay still.
Intelligent ISO Control helps prevent blur caused by subject motion. Intelligent Scene Selector selects the optimal scene mode for the situation. Face Detection AF/AE helps deliver clear portraits. In addition to the ordinary mark that indicates when the shot is in focus, you can choose a flower, star, or three other designs.
In Photo Frame mode, you can compose your shot while displaying one of the frames registered in the camera. This is a quick, easy way to produce photos with attractive borders.
