Panasonic has introduced a compact 12.2-megapixel point-and-shoot camera with a wide-angle 3.6x zoom lens. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX100 sports an optically stabilized Leica DC Vario-Elmarit lens with an f/2.8-5.6 maximum aperture and a 28mm-100mm (35mm camera equivalent) focal-length range, as well as a 207,000-pixel, 2.5-inch LCD. The camera uses Panasonic's Venus Engine III processor to boost shooting speed and performance. Panasonic is also touting the FX100's built-in flash, which it claims has a reach of up to 16 meters; presumably that's at higher ISO settings. The FX100 doesn't provide manual or priority exposure control, but it does give the photographer plenty of flexibility in programmed and fully automatic shooting modes. There are 21 scene modes, including a high-sensitivity option that uses settings between ISO 1600 and 6400. The camera's automatic shutter speed range runs from 1/2000 to 8 seconds, with 15-, 30-, and 60-second speeds selectable via the Starry Sky Mode.
