Farewell to Panny Lumix FX01
Bought this decent camera at $600 last year for my birthday pressie. I love it for the compactness. The reason why I chose this camera was mainly because of the 28mm wide angle and the Mega O.I.S (Optical Image Stabilizer). The latter feature is mainly for friends or other people who are helping me to take a shot. I want to appear sharp!!
Well, this camera has all the aspects i liked accept it can get rather noisy (grainy) even at low ISO settings. Shots above ISO 200 are totally unuseable and not to mention the Hi-ISO setting (ISO 1600).
Downsides aside, I found that this camera is very responsive and WB (White Balance) is excellence. Previewing photos on the LCD is really gonna blow you off. The colours are vivid and bright on the LCD but it appears mediocre on the monitor.
After my taiwan trip, I decided to sell it to one my friend at $260. I really can't tolerate the lousy noise control now. In addition, a lot of the images taken with Pony with me inside are OOF (out of focus). I guess I need a face detection camera. yeah... for the use of friends and other people again.
Now I still miss my tiny handy Panny!
