Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX01 Digital Camera Review

The FX01 shares most of its internal components with the FX3, and in many ways the two cameras are almost identical. The both have the same 1/2.5in CCD, 6.37 megapixels (6.0MP effective) CCD sensor, the same 2.5in, 207k pixel TFT high-angle LCD monitor, and identical control layouts. The body designs are slightly different though, with the FX01 having a more rounded shape, and less of the Leica-esque 1930s retro look. Personally I prefer the appearance of the FX01, in fact I d go as far as to say I think its one of the most attractively styled cameras on the market. ..With its wide angle lens and optical image stabilisation the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX01 stands out from the crowd of virtually identical 6-megapixel 3x zoom ultra-compacts. It is well made, looks superb and takes very good pictures, with excellent noise control and good low light performance.
