Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Panasonic DMC-FX07K 7.2MP Digital Camera with 3.6x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)Customer Review: Like Night and Day Summary: 4 Stars
Like many of the reviews before mine, I had terrible amounts of noise in most lighting conditions and some of the pictures came out so dark they were practically illegible. It was so bad that I was convinced that the camera was defective so I sent it back to Amazon for a replacement. There is just no way that a manufacturer can produce a product this bad with all the choice we have... it must be broken!
Sure enough, the replacement they sent me takes decent pictures. Its not going to give you pictures as clear as many larger (compact) cameras, but for the average photographer who wants an ultra-compact camera it works just fine. The menus are intuitive and easy to master. The image stabilization works great. The best feature is the wide angle lens. Everyone always is concerned with zoom. I have a 2 year old Casio Exilim and a 4 year old Canon Elph and I never realized how much of the pictures were being cut off. This lens allows you to frame pictures much more easily, especially up close. The movie mode works great and the 16:9 format is nice for playback on your TV.
I'm not sure whether recommend this camera or not. Everyone that sees it thinks its great. Its fun to use, solidly built, fits well in your hand and takes nice pictures. If you're willing to take a chance, it really is a very nice camera. Seems like Panasonic has some quality control issues to work on. For now, no complaints.
Description of Panasonic DMC-FX07K 7.2MP Digital Camera with 3.6x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)The new Lumix DMC-FX07 7.2-megapixel digital camera features a f2.8 Leica DC Vario-Elmarit Lens lens with 3.6x optical zoom, equivalent to 28mm to 102mm on a 35mm film camera, an Intelligent Image Stabilizer and Intelligent ISO control (I.I.C.) . When set to the I.I.C., the Venus Engine III detects the subject's movement and adjusts the setting and shutter speed to suit the movement and light condition automatically. The f2.8 Leica DC Vario-Elmarit lens is housed in a compact and slim body, achieved thanks to the incorporation of an EA (Extra High Refractive Index Aspherical) lens. Despite the large, bright LCD, the DMC-FX07 camera achieves long battery life to shoot approximately 320 pictures ( CIPA ) on a full charge. This camera is also capable of shooting movies (with sound) and a variety of preset scene modes, 18 in total for easy use. The newly incorporated Beach mode is perfect for shooting in strong sunlight and the Aerial mode enhances images shot through the windows of an airplane. High Sensitivity mode, made possible by the pixel-mixed readout method by the CCD, is ideal for shooting moving subjects clearly without blurring at a sensitivity as high as ISO 3200. ISO Sensitivity Auto / I.ISO / 100 / 200 / 400 / 800 / 1250 (High Sensitivity Mode - 3200) Auto and Macro Focus modes Program AutoExposure 2.5 inch LCD screen Intelligent ISO Control (I.I.C.) reduces image blur from subject movement and low light Records movies in wide-aspect VGA (848 x 480) at 30 fps Burst Shooting Mode up to 8 images at 3 or 2 frames per seconds, up to 6 images in Fine Mode Dimensions (H x W x D) 2.01'' x 3.70'' x 0.95'' / 5 oz
