Panasonic Introduces Two New Compact Lumix Digital Cameras


Current Issue

Japanese electronics giant Panasonic has launched its FX-series of compact digital cameras, the LUMIX DMC- FX55 and DMC-FX33.

A prepared company release said like the entire 2007 LUMIX line, the two new models incorporate Panasonic's revolutionary Intelligent Image stabilisation technologies, and are the first Panasonic cameras, along with the newly introduced DMC-FZ18, to offer Intelligent Auto Mode, a system which combines Mega Optical Image Stabilisation (O.I.S) and Intelligent ISO Control with three new features: Face Detection System, Intelligent Scene Selector and Continuous Auto Focus. Both models combine 8.1-megapixels with a 28mm wide- angle LEICA DC lens with 3.6x optical zoom.

"With our Intelligent Auto Modes, the DMC-FX55 and DMC-FX33 are the perfect combination of performance and style, giving consumers a user-friendly digital camera in a sleek and compact body that makes it easy to carry," said Alex Fried, National Marketing Manager, Imaging, Panasonic Consumer Electronics Company. "Also featuring a 28-mm wide-angle LEICA DC lens and MEGA OIS, these cameras allow the on-the-go consumer to capture high-quality images with incredible features and convenience."

Intelligent Image Stabilisation, a feature across the entire 2007 LUMIX digital camera line, comprises two features - MEGA O.I.S. which helps compensate for the effects of hand-shake; and Intelligent ISO Control, which takes into account the photo subject is moving and adjusts the ISO setting. Combining these two anti-blur features helps allow the DMC-FX33 and DMC-FX55 to photograph clear, crisp images.

In addition, the DMC-FX55 and DMC-FX33 feature the Venus Engine III, which supports a new High Sensitivity mode that allows images to be shot at a setting of up to ISO 6400. This is sensitive enough to capture subjects in low-light conditions without the need for a flash. Also, the high-speed Burst Shooting mode enables up to seven shots to be taken per second.
