  • Panasonic Lumix® DMC-FX01 Digital Camera Rivals Canon SD700

    Sep 28 '06
    Pros: Long battery life, image stabilization, low price, image quality, wide angle, compact
    Cons: Slightly higher noise than Canon SD700, black case prone smudges, LCD washes out in sunlight

    Summary: After using and selling the C anon SD700 IS, I have purchased the Panasonic DMC-FX01. The FX01 is similar to the Canon SD700: it has compact design, large LCD and optical image stabilization. The Canon SD700 is slightly ... read more

  • Panasonic Lumix Problems After a Year of Use - Not Recommended

    Oct 01 '08
    Pros: wide angle, small
    Cons: terrible low light photography, bad design, not great picture quality

    Summary: Update 10/1/08My Lumix is history and I do not recommend this camera.I'm sort of relieved that my Lumix FX-01 is dead at Panasonic after I refused to pay $111 to have them fix my lens, which bent to the side, due to their design of an on and off ... read more

  • Nice, small, wide-angle (28 mm) camera

    May 30 '07
    Pros: Does a great job at nearly everything you would expect of a digital camera.
    Cons: Sometimes does not focus correctly when dark, distance, flash photo.

    Summary: Where to begin? When it comes to cameras, probably with a description of what I use it for. I am usually a casual photographer. The snapshot guy, indoors and out. The camera needs to be small enough to fit in a shirt pocket. Doesn’t matter how great ... read more

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX01 Digital Camera

    Oct 23 '06
    Pros: Beautiful pictures, Battery life, Usability, Display screen, controls, Robust
    Cons: low light situations, flash

    Summary: I recently purchased a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX01 from B&H Photo in New York City. I use the camera as an everyday accessory to capture everything and anything of importance including my children, my remodeling project and artistic excursions. I am ... read more

  • Great Point and Shoot Camera for Average/Simple User

    Aug 16 '06
    Pros: Price, Leica lens, compact design, battery life, image stabilizer, wide-angle 28mm lens
    Cons: Battery charging requires removing battery from the camera. No case included

    Summary: I have owned it for less than 7 days thus far, and the camera has satisfied me thus far. I did some research prior to buying the FX01 - key points that influenced my decision were: 1. Leica 28mm wide-angle lens in a compact camera 2. Great battery ... read more

  • A small camera compromise champion

    Jun 24 '06
    Pros: Take-it-all-in wide angle: point and click almost always gets a useable picture.
    Cons: Relatively noisy (mostly chrominance), noticeable in large blowups. No zoom in movie mode.

    Summary: Ease of use matters! When it comes to cameras, it's easy to let your desire for perfection get in the way of letting you take as many pictures as you should. I ooh and ah over the gorgeous, near noiseless photos from my Digital Rebel SLR (also 6 ... read more

  • The Panasonic FX-01 is a great camera for a realtor, or anyone else

    May 24 '06
    Pros: Powerful, portable, flexible, and relatively inexpensive.
    Cons: I haven't found any yet.

    Summary: I would like to let others know that the FX-01 has proven to be an excellent camera. As a real estate broker, a feature I particularly appreciate is that I can take a sharp 6 mega pixel picture and then easily create a copy of that picture with less ... read more

  • THIS IS IT--SMALL SHARP STYLING QUICK and CONVENIENT what else is there??

    May 15 '06
    Pros: SMALL, SHARP, WIDE ANGLE, CUTE
    Cons: If I haven't found them by now, there aren't any to worry about.

    Summary: A true POCKET camera. There are few digital cameras of any sort that zoom as wide as 28mm, which has always been a kind of "standard" lens for many people, including photojournalists. That means it really is essential as an option--and of course ... read more

  • Faulty product and bad service

    Nov 07 '06
    Pros: good pictures
    Cons: Customer service is substandard, as is the product lifetime, or rather, the lack thereof.

    Summary: I bought this camera hoping I would be able to get some better pictures of butterflies, flowers etc. I was attracted to the zoom, small size and image stabilizer. For the first month all went smoothly. The auto focus generally worked quick and fast,

  • Generally good, but pic quality is so-so

    Oct 23 '06
    Pros: small, lightwt, wide angle,quality movie mode and sound,good macro
    Cons: poor pic qual for price

    Summary: Its a heavily loaded small camera no doubt. I bought it in dubai at 1199 dhirhams (324 dollars)with a 512 mb panasonic sd card "free". Its easy to use, its really small, its got a wide angle function etc. But in my computer i found the pictures to be

  • Great Camera

    Oct 02 '06
    Pros: thin, easy to use, large LCD
    Cons: none that i've noticed so far aside from the lens extension issue.

    Summary: I purchased the Panasonic DMC-FX01 a couple of weeks ago and overall it's excellent! LCD - Huge LCD screen on the back which is clear and bright. My old Canon 3.0 megapixel screen was half the size. It really helps when deciding to keep or trash a

  • Great Camera

    Jun 26 '06
    Pros: Small, lightweight, flexible camera with lots of capability.
    Cons: Picture size on back circle button versus the selftimer would make this a better camera.

    Summary: I took this camera to Philmont Scout reservation on a 62 mile trek. I took photos before, during and after in all types of lighting conditions and situations and got lots of good photos. I purchase 2 additional 1300 mAh batteries and was able to take

  • WOW! Good all around camera, only 1 iffy

    Jun 04 '06
    Pros: Small, amazing battery, good video, good low light
    Cons: Video start LAG and Stop EARLY.

    Summary: The camera is great. Lag for STILLS is very small, focus is great, the candlelight scene mode allows pictures normally wouldn't capture & the image stabilization allows the noise to be low. I've used it at T-Ball games and our 20th anniversary party
