Panasonic has introduced a new product to their Lumix family - the Lumix DMC-LX3. This camera gives consumers the convenience of a point-and-shoot with professional grade functions and images. Regardless of your photography level of expertise, the Lumix DMC-LX3 is a grand addition to your camera collection.
This 10.1-megapixel camera, with 2.5x optical zoom, offers many standard features, along with a few advanced functions. Optical Image Stabilization, Intelligent Auto Mode, RAW support, and HD movies are just a few of the standard features you will find on the DMC-LX3. Like many point-and-shoot models, it will fit in your pocket with measurements of 2.34 x 4.28 x 1.06-inches. It is also lightweight, as it weighs less than a pound. Regardless of its size, you will still find a hefty 3.0-inch LCD screen, which displays images at 460,000-dot resolutions.
Like many other cameras, the DMC-LX3 comes with auto face detection and autofocus tracking features. The two technologies work side-by-side offering optimized focus on still and moving objects. AF technology, on this particular model, can actually detect up to 15 faces in one shot, and adjust exposure and focus ideally for each.
There are 24 different preset shooting modes available on the DMC-LX3. These options are available for those with a little less expertise, but want to shoot the same quality pictures. For the more advanced users, you can manually adjust ISO, aperture, and shutter modes. ISO settings can be adjusted anywhere from 80 to an expanded 6,400.
Not only can you capture stills, with the DMC-LX3, but you can also capture video with sound. Video outputs are high-def with a resolution of 1,280 x 720. Resolution settings can be changed; the lower the setting the higher frames per second you can capture (1,280 x 720: 24fps).
You have multiple options for storage, SD/SDHC memory or multimedia cards, or internal unit storage. You have up to 50MB of internal storage available to you; therefore, an external card is highly suggested and recommended. (Unless you transfer files, off of the camera, on a very regular basis.)
The DMC-LX3 has three connectivity ports: USB 2.0, NTSC video output, and high-def component video output. Transferring and viewing images and videos are easy with these connection options and easy access to the ports.
Panasonic has kept the same body style for all of their LX models; this makes transitions between cameras seamless for consumers - after all - why fix it if it isn't broken. The body shape makes it fit comfortably in any size hand, and button locations allow consumers to effortlessly access different functions and actions. Additional options or settings are available via the LCD screen.
Panasonic was smart, building the LX3 with metal, spring-loaded doors, and buttons that are not flimsy to the touch. All of this, combined, makes for a durable long lasting camera.
For around $500, you can pick up the exceptional Lumix DMC-LX3. It is functional and easy to use. A point-and-shoot offers professional quality images and features. It is a perfect camera for user and purpose. - 15437
