Panasonic DMC-FX50 Review

Review Summary
Reader Score: 6.71 (out of 10)
Review: "The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX50 has 7.2 megapixels and an optically stabilized Leica 3.6x zoom lens. It's features consist of a slew of automatic modes, including 18 scenes and a Simple mode that turns the FX50 into a point-and-shoot digital camera. There is a High Sensitivity scene mode on this model that goes up to ISO 3200 to capture subjects cast in low light without having to use the built-in flash. The body is plainly styled and comes in silver and black colors, and has a huge 3-inch LCD screen on its back. The Panasonic FX50 can record widescreen pictures and videos and retails for $399.

The Panasonic Lumix FX50 is an average digital camera with a few above average features and below average image quality. The camera itself has a 3.6x lens, optical image stabilization, and 3-inch LCD screen packaged in a bland design. Still, the chunk of plastic and metal is less than an inch thick and slides into pockets and purses for easy transportation. In that way, it is a very convenient camera."

Review: "It's not easy being a 7-megapixel snapshot camera. You have to be fast, cute, cheap, smart, and talented just to get noticed. If you're lucky, your company will give you a clear spot in the lineup with your siblings; if not, you've got to duke it out with a cheaper version of yourself....

As is typical, however, Panasonic hits the wall on photo quality. It fares reasonably well when it comes to exposure, color, and white balance, and the lens is surprisingly good, with no distortion at telephoto and little at the wide angle. But if image noise had a sound, the FX50 would make my ears bleed. Its photos start out with significant amounts of noise at the lowest sensitivity setting of ISO 100, then just get worse..."
