Panasonic's new DMC-FX8 Lumix camera is an upgrade to the FX7 model released a year ago. It has the same 3x optical/4x digital zoom lens, 2.5-inch LCD monitor and 5-megapixel CCD sensor and also features Panasonic's Mega O.I.S image stabilisation system. Body dimensions and weight are also unchanged, although some minor cosmetic adjustments have been made to styling.
A wonderful camera that looks good, feels good and takes great shots. Highly recommended.

Panasonic DMC-FX8 Review - DMC-FX8 Specifications
A wonderful camera that looks good, feels good and takes great shots. Highly recommended.
Panasonic has today announced an update to the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX7 with the FX8. The only difference between the identical cameras, is that the FX8 doubles the battery life of its predecessor with a new lithium ion battery, which increases the capacity by 162% thanks to the new Venus Engine PLUS. The five megapixel model also boasts quickened AF, three new scene modes, VGA movie recording plus MEGA OIS, the impressive proprietary image stabilization function. Like the FX7, the FX8 is availabe in silver, black, blue and pink.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX8 (Compact Camera): 4 out of 5 stars on Australia's largest opinion site ProductReview.com.au.
