Panasonic has brought to the Middle East the fully-loaded 5MB LUMIX DMC-FX8 digital camera with extended battery life, 3x optical zoom, 12x digital zoom with a LEICA DC VARIO-ELMARIT Lens.
The camera incorporates Panasonic’s MEGA OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) that automatically compensates for hand shake while shooting, resulting in clear, defined images. The FX8 also provides extended battery life thanks to a Lithium Ion battery and the Venus Engine PLUS which minimizes power consumption.
The FX8 allows the user to take about 300 photos in a single charge which is more than two times longer than the equivalent models. The FX8’s compact size also makes easy to carry — just 3.7 inches wide, 1.99 inches high and weighing only 155 grams, with battery and SD memory card.
The FX8 has five auto-focus modes including one point high speed auto-focus ensuring focus time is minimal and image clarity is not sacrificed. The FX8’s 2.5-inch LCD provides extra backlighting to ensure clear visibility even outdoors. Additionally, the camera is equipped with full-size VGA movie capture at 30 frames per second, while a built-in speaker provides an extra dimension to playback on the 2.5 inch LCD.
