•Do not look directly at the flash at close range when it is activated.

•If you bring the flash too close to an object, the object may be distorted or

discolored by the heat or lighting from the flash.

•Do not cover the photo flash with your fingers or other objects.

•In economy mode, the LCD monitor turns off and the status indicator lights while the flash is charging. [This does not happen when using the AC adaptor (DMW-AC5PP; optional).] If the remaining battery power is low, the length of time that the LCD monitor turns off to charge may become longer.

•If you press the shutter button halfway when the flash is activated, the flash icon turns red.

•When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted properly and the picture may become bright or dark.

•When the flash is being charged, the flash icon blinks red, and you cannot take a picture even when you press the shutter button fully.

•The white balance may not be properly adjusted if the flash level is insufficient for the subject. (P59)

•When the shutter speed is fast, the flash effect may not be sufficient.

•It may take time to charge the flash if you repeat taking a picture. Take a picture after the access indication disappears.

•The red-eye reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject was far away from the camera or was not

looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.

•When the flash is activated, you can only take 1 picture.

DMC-FX10, DMC-FX12 specifications

The Panasonic DMC-FX12 and DMC-FX10 are part of Panasonic’s compact digital camera series, known for their blend of size, performance, and ease of use. Launched in the mid-2000s, these cameras offered a solid choice for casual photographers seeking quality without the bulk of larger DSLR systems.

At the core of both models is a 1/2.5-inch CCD sensor. The DMC-FX12 features a resolution of 7.2 megapixels, while the DMC-FX10 has a 6.0-megapixel sensor. This resolution enables users to capture detailed images suitable for prints and online sharing. The cameras are equipped with a Leica DC Vario-Elmar lens, characterized by a 35mm equivalent focal length of 28-100mm, providing a versatile zoom range that is ideal for various shooting scenarios from landscapes to portraits.

One of the standout features of both the DMC-FX12 and DMC-FX10 is the incorporation of Panasonic's MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilization) technology. This innovation helps to minimize the effects of camera shake, particularly in low-light conditions or when using telephoto settings, resulting in sharper images and enhanced overall quality.

Both models also offer a variety of shooting modes, including intelligent auto mode, which automatically adjusts settings based on the scene being captured. This allows even novice photographers to achieve satisfactory results without needing extensive technical knowledge. Additionally, the cameras come equipped with a 2.5-inch LCD screen, providing a clear view for composing and reviewing images.

In terms of connectivity, the DMC-FX12 and DMC-FX10 provide USB and AV outputs, making it easy to transfer images to computers or display them on televisions. They also support SD/SDHC memory cards, allowing for expandable storage that accommodates numerous photos and videos.

The build quality of these cameras is robust yet lightweight, making them ideal for travel. Compact dimensions mean they can easily fit into pockets or small bags, ensuring they are always ready for action. The user-friendly interface further enhances their appeal, allowing quick access to essential functions and settings.

In summary, the Panasonic DMC-FX12 and DMC-FX10 represent a solid entry in the realm of compact cameras with their impressive combination of resolution, lens quality, optical stabilization, and user-friendly features, appealing to both novice photographers and those looking for a reliable secondary camera.
