The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX37 Digital Camera (Silver) has an ultra slim body - yet it contains a professional quality 5x wide angle zoom lens that is equivalent to a 25-125mm lens in 35mm terms permitting you to easily capture a large group of people, or expansive architectural structures and landscapes with dynamic width and rich perspective. The telephoto end of the cameras zoom can also be extended an additional 8.9x (when shooting 3 megapixels or less) with minimal loss of image quality thanks to the Extra Optical Zoom feature. The top quality Leica DC Vario-Elmarit lens also provides an ingenious combination of two anti blur systems (MEGA O.I.S and Intelligent ISO control), ensuring that you'll get consistently sharp and bright images, regardless of the shooting situation. Furthermore, the Venus Engine IV advanced image-processing engine can record at a sensitivity setting as a high as ISO 1600, providing fast camera functioning, and keeps power usage down so you can keep shooting pictures all day. The DMC-FX37 has a bright, high resolution LCD display that measures 2.5" diagonally so you can easily frame your shots and then review and share your pictures with family and friends. The cameras controls are also very intuitive with a logical mode dial, a one-touch function button to quickly access commonly used menu selections, and a slew of scene modes for getting the best possible exposure, without the need to manually adjust all of the camera settings. In addition, the camera is extremely energy efficient, so the included lithium-ion battery can provide 300 shots on a single charge.

Compact camera for an SLR Owner!?

"So as a Canon SLR Owner for many years I have been on the search for the perfect camera that you take when you just cant take the SLR and its baggage. Therefore its the night outs and visits to places where you dont want to lug the gear. Now I would like to say that there is a camera that fits this mark - but there just isnt. Ideally the Lumix LX3 or Canon G10 would fit this space but alas they are both too bi..." Read Full Review »

"This is my walk-about camera. It easily fits in my pocket, with a bulge about the same size as an iPhone. I bought this camera because of the Leica wide-angle lens. The 25mm is able to capture a lot more than your typical compact camera with a wide angle of 30-35mm. I am fairly pleased with the resu …"  Read Full Review »

I have already found that the Lumix takes better pictures, has more functions, and is simply, just a better product. I generally take photos of everyday even …"  Read Full Review »

"I'm a pro photog, normally shoot with a Canon 1Ds Mark III, which is not suitable for lugging around to concerts, parties etc. So I picked up this camera and I couldn't be more happy. I was planning on getting a Canon compact, but once I had a play with this camera, I was sold.

"My husband has an older model Lumix that I've always loved using for the quality of the photos. I purchased this one for myself specifically for the wide angle lens--I'm in real estate and need to photograph tight spaces frequently. I couldn't be happier with it. "
