Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ5 prices and specs
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ5 was released on Jul 18, 2012. For now the cheapest price for the camera is $79.99.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ5 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The Lumix DMC-SZ5 is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't capture photographs of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The device can take images at 14 megapixels highest resolution. But for better photo quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This model has a 1/2.33' (6.08 x 4.56 mm) sensor which means that the Lumix DMC-SZ5 will shoot images with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Lumix DMC-SZ5 has portable size. And if you want to make images of the professional quality check Canon EOS-1D X Mark II.
The Lumix DMC-SZ5 has max shutter speed of 1/1600 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but anyway the photographer will be able to produce images of moving people. The owner of the Lumix DMC-SZ5 will be able to produce HD videos that guarantees a good picture quality.
The lens is fixed and the photographer can't change it. The lens provides great 10x optical zoom.
Also this device has Wi-Fi which means that the Lumix DMC-SZ5 owner can very easy transfer photos to the phone or tablet for example. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ5 battery life will be enough to take approximately 250 images.
