The new Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS5 is set to be “just as popular” as previous models such as the Panasonic TZ3, a review this month has asserted.

Although Crave admitted the camera “isn’t the prettiest compact on the market”, it claimed it is available in a choice of silver, black and red “flavours” and features “one of the best image stabilisation systems around”.

The review claimed top selling points for the camera include dual noise reduction technology, as well as improved low-light capability and a rapid autofocus system, as well as face detection.

Meanwhile, current.com reports that the entire new range of Panasonic Lumix cameras contain a number of useful features, including intelligent scene selector, intelligent exposure - which managed both shutter speed and aperture to prevent hotos from being washed out - as well as digital red-eye correction and a mode which can activate a number of the camera’s automatic features simultaneously.
