Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ5 Reviewed
The recently announced Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ5 digital camera has just been reviewed by Digital Photography Review, and seems to have made it to the top of their ‘Highly Recommended’ list. DPR praises the camera with the words : “There is so much to like here - and so little to complain about “. The Lumix DMC-FZ5 is a 5 Megapixel camera with a 12x optical zoom and optical image stabilisation. The review itself goes into details of the body, design, operation, timing and compares the DMC-FZ5 to various similarly-spec’d cameras. The good points of the FZ5 include :
- Resolution and detail capture.
- 12x optical zoom
- Image stabilization
But there’s room for improvement in areas such as :
- Lack of manual focus
- Images slightly over-sharpened
