Panasonic Upgrades Lumix Camera Line

Panasonic has undertaken a serious upgrade to the latest addition of its Lumix camera range with the snazzily-named DMC-FX75.

This super slim snapper boasts a 24mm ultra-wide-angle lens, which is designed to provide an increased viewing space of 213 per cent compared to a standard 35mm camera.

The DMC-FX75 takes shots in 14 megapixels, making it ideal for action pictures.

Intelligent Auto now comes with a new Motion Deblur mode to tweak settings to produce high shutter speeds- again capturing the moment in fast action shots.

You can shoot in either standard or high definition format including 720p HD video.

Panasonic has also included four aspect ratios as well as a 5x optical zoom so you can get up close and personal with your subject matter. If that's not enough though, you can up the ante to 6.5x using intelligent zoom or even 10.5x with extra optical zoom

This latest Lumix is said to have an increased ability to capture brighter and sharper photos in low lighting, which is great news for the quality of Facebook albums world-wide.

You can also use the sizey 3 inch LCD touchscreen to edit your pictures on the go, as well as access Panasonic's array of camera features, including the now mandatory Auto Focus and optical stabilisation.

The DMC-FX75 Lumix comes with USB 2.0, AV and HDMI ports so connectivity won't be a problem.

Panasonic is still keeping mum on how much its brand new camera will cost, and has only said it will be available in shops "soon".
