Neocamera has reviewed the 7.2 megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX30 and they write, “In the end the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX30 turns out to be an average ultra-compact camera with a wide-angle lens. Unfortunately for the FX30, there are other such cameras, like the better Canon Powershot SD800 IS. Images from this digital camera are overly contrasty, lack dynamic range and show visibly more noise than its competitors. At ISO 100 and 200, noise is only slightly noticeable but starting at ISO 400 it gets worse. Another image quality problem is the smudging of low-contrast details present even at ISO 100. One major problem that cannot easily be overlooked is that the FX30’s LCD does not accurately represent exposure. Most point-and-shoot cameras are designed to provide foolproof simplicity and not having a WYSIWYG live-preview is problematic for its target users.”
