Panasonic Lumix FX90 review

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX90 attempts to bridge the gap between a compact camera's ability to capture quality prints and a smartphone's ability to share shots to a social network.As a member of Panasonic's range of Lumix branded compacts, the FX90 shares many features and functions with the slightly cheaper Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX77, but has the added bonus of built-in Wi-Fi connectivity to enable you to send shots to your smartphone while out and about, then upload them to the web. You can also wirelessly link the Panasonic Lumix FX90 to your PC and upload the shots without having to connect the camera via USB or insert your SD card into a memory card slot.Priced at £269.99 in the UK, typical compact camera features are present and correct, including the usual Scene modes such as Portrait and Sport, although it's also packed with extra modes such as a well-designed Panorama Assist. This mode enables you to overlay the edge of one frame over the live view feed to help compose and capture the next shot in the panoramic sequence - although you'll need to stitch the shots together in an image editor.There's also an effective Handheld Night Shot mode, which blasts off a series of stills and then automatically combines them into one image to reduce noise and motion blur.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX90

With casual snapshooters opting more and more for a good-enough smartphone instead of a dedicated camera, it's not a big surprise that manufacturers are hungry for ways to get point-and-shoots similar functionality. Currently, that means putting Wi-Fi in and creating applications so you can connect your camera to your smartphone. And that's how we end up with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX90. The FX90 is a nice ultracompact camera with an f2.5 ultrawide-angle 24mm Leica lens with a 5x zoom, a 12-megapixel high-speed CCD sensor, and a 460K-dot-resolution touch screen. It also has a one-touch record button for capturing clips at resolutions up to full HD in AVCHD format. But really, it's all about the wireless functionality, which sadly just isn't great. I mean, it does everything Panasonic says it does, but setup and use seem way more complicated than they should be. That's not good if you're trying to convince consumers that the FX90 should be the camera they reach for instead of their always-connected smartphone. The other thing is, if you're going to put down your smartphone and use a point-and-shoot, it should probably turn out great snapshots that are significantly better than what you get from the phone's camera.

Digital Camera Reviews: Choose the Best Compact Camera

While the FX series was once Panasonic's flagship compact range, it's been somewhat overshadowed by the higher-end TZ superzoom series and the cheaper, lower-end FS series. However, Panasonic is determined to make the Lumix FX90 stand out as a high-tech compact, so while the main tech specs are nothing new (24-120 mm zoom, 12 Mpx CCD), this updated camera has a Wi-Fi chip, so you can publish photos online or to send them to a smartphone or touchscreen tablet. Last year, Panasonic streamlined its range of FX cameras with the FX77, which combined the slim design of the FX66 and the touchscreen interface of the FX700. To that basic formula, the FX90 brings Wi-Fi connectivity. This in turn adds extra bulk to the right-hand side of the camera's screen, and also sees the arrival of a Wi-Fi button. The FX90 looks similar to its predecessors, but this tired-and-tested design is starting to show its age. The FX90 is clearly a descendant of the FX100 and the FX33, but the design that we liked a lot just a couple of years ago is starting to look dated. In today's market, pocket-sized mini-bricks with rounded edges are ten a penny, and the chrome-effect detail around the lens is nothing out of the ordinary.

Panasonic LUMIX FX90

The LUMIX FX90 is targeted towards users looking for a stylish, slim and easy to use compact camera. A quick look over the specification finds a 12.1MP CCD sensor with an ISO range from 100-1600, while the lens offers a broad 5x optical zoom range from 24-120mm. This is great for fitting plenty in the frame, while the medium telephoto focal length of 120mm is great for tight crops of subjects, though don't' expect it to get you in really close to far off subjects.If you want to shoot video, the FX90 can record at full HD 1080p in either AVCHD or MP4 depending on your preferred viewing device, while footage can be captured in stereo sound.There's also a 3D Photo Mode - in this mode, hold down the shutter button and pan the camera left to right to generate a 3D image that you can view on a 3D compatible TV. There's also built-in wireless to transfer images to web services such as Facebook or AV devices. It doesn't work over a public wireless connection, but images can be transmitted to a smartphone on the move (you'll need to download the Lumix Link App first), which can then push the images on, or hooked-up to your PC. There's a 3in touchscreen with a resolution of 460k-dots, so Panasonic's touch focus and shutter and be used.
