Touchy Camera by Panasonic

Many people don’t know about Panasonic’s Lumix DMC-FX500. Panasonic made this model very instinctive with features novices and experts can appreciate. Many beginners are not familiar with their camera’s settings, because let’s face it, not everyone reads the manual or takes special photography classes.
Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FX500 has 3-inch touch screen on the back that permit users to speedily change the settings depending on the condition. For example, by selecting a person on the touchscreen, you activate the auto focus lock feature on the camera that keeps the subject in focus no matter what they do, so you don’t have to worry about readjusting the camera every time. This is great for people who often take photos of moving subjects that won’t keep still, like fidgety children or pets.
You can also tap on a subject and let the camera choose the right mode depending on the subject’s position with using the touch panel. By touching a person’s face, the camera switches to portrait mode or to macro if you want a close-up of a flower instead. Zooming in or out of a photo in playback mode is also possibly by moving sliders left or right on the touch screen.
The additional nice about the 10-megapixel LUMIX DMC-FX500 is it can record video in high-definition at 720p, and take still images in a 16:9 aspect ratio that can be viewed in a widescreen television. Other features include image-stabilization, face detection, automated scene-detection, a 25mm wide-angle lens, and 5X optical zoom.
