Panasonic Lumix FP3 review part 1

Review part 1

Took a day trip out to do my
test run on my new camera
Panasonic
Lumix
(since I just got the
latest 8GB class 10
flash memory).

Pictures are experimented on the full potential of the
14.1 megapixel
(click on image to view details of the 14.1 megapixel)
in Auto mode
(No touch-ups, just raw photos)
(still figuring out my camera,
manual mode another time & day)
Just in 2 scene mode that I am documenting today:

Food mode
&
Scene mode

Zoom action simplified to a 1 +, 2 + or a 3 +

Conclusive review for part 1:
Loved the food mode more than the scenery mode
as the mode gives the focus a clearer read to the object targeted especially in
a moving vehicle. Other reviews are right on target on the
capability of not blurring when subject or user is moving
(this feature do get a five star from me).
---
Physical feel of the camera itself is solid,
it is all metal and does not have a cheap feel to it.
Fits into the palm nicely and is thin enough not
to give you cramps over a long period of
handling the camera.
Well worth the price paid for.
