Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35

With the latest model in its FX line, Panasonic has added some nice features but took out its excellent joystick controller. This move lands the camera right back in the middle of the pack of midrange pocket shooters.

25mm wide-angle lens. Intelligent LCD. Intelligent Auto mode has been improved. Very little noise at high ISO settings.

No joystick controller like on other F-series cameras. Small 2.5-inch LCD. No optical viewfinder. Flash underexposes images.

Panasonic Lumix DMC FX35 review

The number of ultra compact digital cameras has grown considerably over the past few years. At the time, Casio took the initiative with the Exilim Card models to produce flat models and nearly every manufacturer followed their example. Although many...

At first glance, you may take a look at the Panasonic LumixDMC-FX35 ($350) and say, "oh good, another ultra-compact camera". And, in many respects,that's just what it is. What sets the FX35 apart from almost everything elseis its super wide-angle lens,...

Good photo quality, less noise reduction than previous models (though see issues below), Super wide 25 - 100 mm lens, Optical image stabilization, Ultra-compact metal body; comes in three colors, Sharp 2.5" LCD with excellent outdoor and low light...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35 Review

In the compact digital camera world, standard zoom lenses have tended to start out in the low- to mid-30mm focal range at the wide-angle end of the spectrum – a 35mm-equivalent length that isn't really all that wide. Every so often you'll come across a...

Simple, straightforward controls, Good lens performance/Image quality, Good shutter response

Monitor can be hard to use in bright conditions/no viewfinder

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35 is a slim 10.1 Megapixel compact with a 4x optically stabilised lens. Announced in January 2008, it comes just six months after its predecessor the Lumix FX33, which itself came only seven months after the Lumix FX30.

25mm wide angle and optical stabilisation ; Slim body and shorter than many rivals too ; Very good Intelligent Auto mode ; HD video recording but no zoom

Noise becomes a problem above 200 ISO ; Little or no manual control ; HD movies still no match for a camcorder ; 10x zoom and 3in screen of TZ5 are tempting

With a 25mm wide-angle lens, the new Lumix FX35 captures more than ever before
