We review the ultra compact and stylish Panasonic Lumix XS3, which is smaller than most mobile phones.
Panasonic has announced the Lumix DMC-XS3, a budget zoom compact camera that's just 14mm thick. It sports an optically-stabilised wideangle 5x zoom lens (24-120mm equivalent), a 14.1MP 1/2.3" High Sensitivity MOS sensor, and can record Full HD video in MP4 format. It includes a range of Creative Filters which can be applied either during or after shooting, and can also be used when shooting panoramas. The XS3 appears to be a Europe-only release, and will be available in September at a price of £119.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-XS3 is an ultra-slim, super-stylish digital camera that easily fits into a shirt pocket. Read our Panasonic Lumix DMC-XS3 review to find out if it's a successful marriage of style and substance...
