Description
The Lumix DMC-FX100K has an advanced 28mm wide-angle, 3.6 optical zoom Leica DC lens system featuring four aspherical lenses. It includes an EA lens with five aspherical surfaces. A large 1/1.72-inch CCD with an effective 12.1 Megapixels is the highest resolution in its class. The Lumix DMC-FX100K also features an Extended Optical Zoom, which extends zooming up to 7.0x with a simple press of the Easy Zoom button. Intelligent ISO Control makes it easier to take clear, crisp shots even if your subject moves. This innovative feature detects any movement and automatically raises both the ISO setting and the shutter speed accordingly, preventing motion blur. Hand-shake is not a problem with the Lumix DMC-FX100. MEGA Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) automatically compensates for hand-shake. Mega Burst Shooting lets you take consecutive shots at a swift two shots per second. The High-Speed Burst Mode goes a step further, letting you snap off consecutive shots eight shots per second. This makes it easier to catch the perfect action shot of a fast-moving subject.

great camera, but needs viewfinder.
[ Posted: 2008-07-26 ]
I've been very happy with the camera with one exception. The camera has no viewfinder making it very difficult to frame shots under bright conditions.
If I had realized there was no viewfinder, I would not have purchased this camera.
If you don't mind not having a viewfinder, the camera is top notch.
Great little camera

This is a great little camera. It has so many features for it's size, love the photos it takes and the 22 minute very clear videos also. I put a 4 gig card in mine and I can take 689 photos at a full 12 meg. Every one says that you need a spare battery, that's just a sales pitch, I can take over 300 photos with one charge. If you take a lot of photos a spare would be nice, Amazon offers the spare battery with a Case for only $25. Great bargin and deal at that price. I just ordered mine. Get this camera, you won't regret it.
Great pictures

Great pictures , the camera does take some study. I recommend you get extra memory , the built-in isn't enough . The on & off button does seem a little cheap.
Very good little camera

I am very pleased with this camera. Compact, powerful, large LCD, intuitive interface. Images are very clear... my only criticism is that the on/off button occasionally gets turned on by accident.
A Beginner's View: more to it than expected

This is a beautifully built precision instrument, loaded with features and offering a range of controls. It requires more study and practice than I anticipated, and isn't merely point-and-click even in its simplest mode. Its default sensitivity to light is for a smaller range than I was used to with my previous digital camera. So far, indoor photos fade into dark when they should have more of an illuminated background. Back-lighting also has been difficult to compensate for, although the features to do so are allegedly built in. As simple as it looks to operate, this camera does require hours of getting used to, in order to take advantage of all the features, and to get the results you want and should be able to expect. This camera is for the devoted, experimental photographer, or someone who likes to master complexities. A Lumix is not for a lummox...
