I definitely like the Lumix FX500. I wouldnt change to it from my DSLR but its a great point-and-shoot compact camera and the image quality impressed me. I would have liked a larger optical zoom but 5x is the norm for compact cameras. (Panasonic do h...

The ten-megapixel Panasonic Lumix FX500 is a sophisticated camera. Its brushed metallic surface, slim, well-placed flash, and 25mm-to-125mm Leica 5x optical zoom lens are appealing, but its key feature is the three-inch touch-screen display. The touch...

With a 25mm wide-angle, 5x zoom lens, the FX500 is perfect for landscape shots. You also get full control over aperture and shutter, an excellent image stabiliser and the current must-have, face detection.

Was it Panasonic’s intention to create a big "buzz" around its first tactile compact? Either way, the Lumix FX500’s technical sheet was found on many websites before the official announcement. So, does the FX500 deserve all of the attention?HandlingTh...

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500 is a 10.1-megapixel point-and-shoot camera that has plenty of features in its arsenal. When we saw the Leica 5x zoom lens with a 25mm wide angle focal length and the large 3” touch sensitive screen, we were happy to inv...

As far as touchscreen cameras go, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500 is the most intuitive we’ve seen yet. But it loses points for its less-than-spectacular image quality. Although far from terrible, we were disappointed with our underexposed pictures, p...

At first glance the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500 appears to be a fairly conventional 10 megapixel compact camera, but dont be fooled by its boxy looks - this is actually one of the most desirable models of 2008 in terms of its overall specification. Th...
The new Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500 bucks the trend of most 2008 cameras. Instead of building on an already proven design and incorporating a few bright ideas that enhance rather than revolutionize, the FX500 takes the FX-series by the scruff of the nec...

The Panasonic DMC-FX500 is the flagship of the Lumix compact camera range. Announced in March 2008, it features 10.1 Megapixel resolution, a 3in touch-sensitive screen and a 5x optical zoom with impressive wide angle facilities equivalent to 25mm. Wi...
25mm wide angle, 5x range and stabilisation, Full manual control, Touch screen with sensible operation, HD video recording but no zoom.
Noise becomes a problem above 200 ISO, Flagship model, but no RAW files, HD movies still no match for a camcorder, TZ5s 10x zoom tempting at same or lower price.
The Panasonic Lumix FX500 is certainly a classy and feature-packed compact. The zoom range with unusually wide angle and decent telephoto capabilities is very flexible and the optical stabilisation is effective. The touch screen is fun and useful with...

When the heavily hyped, touch screen enabled first appeared, I'll admit that I largely wrote it off as an exercise in novelty an FX35 with a touch screen slapped on and little else to justify its significantly higher price compared to our March Edit...

Auto white balance is all over the map, Noisy sensor means grainy images at all sensitivities, Touch screen can be finicky, inconsistent in implementation, Limitations on video mode negate some of its 720p power, Cost too high for performance gains?, Panasonic Lumix DMCFX500...
I'll get this out of the way up front: the combination of manual exposure control, processing fine-tuning options, and a touch screen interface simply don't come together in any other camera currently in Panasonic's line or any other camera on the mar...
