DMC-FX35 specifications

The Panasonic DMC-FX35 is a compact digital camera that gained recognition for its combination of portability, advanced features, and user-friendly design. Launched in 2008, this model was part of Panasonic's Lumix series, which aimed to provide high-quality imaging in a sleek package.

One of the standout features of the DMC-FX35 is its 8.1-megapixel CCD sensor. This sensor delivers exceptional image quality, allowing for detailed photographs even in varied lighting conditions. The camera is equipped with a 25mm ultra-wide-angle Leica DC VARIO-ELMAR lens, which offers a superb 4x optical zoom range.

This technology helps to minimize the effects of hand-held camera shake, allowing users to capture sharp images even at slower shutter speeds. This is particularly useful in low-light situations where traditional cameras might struggle.

The camera's 2.5-inch LCD display provides a clear and vibrant view of subjects, making it easier to compose shots and navigate the menu system. Furthermore, the FX35 supports various shooting modes and creative filters, enhancing the versatility of the camera for different shooting scenarios.

With a compact design and lightweight build, the Panasonic DMC-FX35 is an ideal option for travel and everyday photography. It also supports SD memory cards, enabling easy storage and transfer of images.
