14,7 megapixels…

Panasonic announced a 14.7-megapixel model : the Lumix FX 150 featuring a 14.7-megapixel resolution meaning that the DMC-FX150 meets the needs of a wide range of consumers looking for pixels quantities without looking at all dark sides of it. Hopefully, the FX150 offers a nice Leica lens with a 28-100mm zoom range.

Manual controls of the FX150

The FX150 offers manual control, letting users adjust the shutter speed as desired. The bracketing function includes the exposure bracketing available on previous models plus a new colour bracketing function that can record colour, monochromatic and sepia shots of an image at the same time with a single press of the shutter button. The FX150 also introduces a new multi-exposure function that creates an interesting artistic effect by superimposing up to three consecutively shot images, while the user views the previous image on the monitor. Also in the FX150, the white balance function has been improved from conventional one-axis compensation to two-axis compensation with a colour temperature setting that allows more precise adjustment. For the AF, FX150 allows user to set focus freely among 11 focus points.

New iA functions

Panasonic's iA (intelligent auto) mode, which makes it easier to take better photos, has been further enhanced on the new Lumix range. The newly added AF tracking function automatically tracks the subject once the AF has been set, even if the subject moves around. This makes it easier to capture sharp, well-focused images of decisive moments. The FX150 continually monitors the light source and automatically activates the backlight compensation function if it detects that the light source is behind the subject. Face detection accuracy has also been increased, allowing continuous AF/AE adjustment even if a face moves or turns sideways to the camera. The Intelligent Exposure function helps capture natural-looking, true-to-life images by suppressing blocked shadows and blown highlights.

FX150's RAW format support

The FX150 records original picture data in RAW file format enabling the user to develop the image with the intended effects on it. With this extensive package of features and functions, the FX150 goes beyond the bounds of conventional compact cameras, giving users the power.
