The FX and the mildly stylish FS series are Panasonic's midrange Lumix cameras. We'll start with the best: The FX35 is billed as being Panasonic's first ultrawide-angle camera with a 25mm focal length at its broadest for squeezing "twice as many friends into a single shot." The 10.1MP, 4x Leica zoom camera also does 720p video capture(!), and stills at 1920x1080p for TV viewing. This camera can also detect motion and up the ISO while speeding up the shutter to capture shots with less blur. Optical image, face detection for up to 15 friends, 2.5-6 shots a second (nice), 2.5 inch LCD, and a shutter lag of .005 seconds for $350. The other cameras are not so cool, but worth mentioning. And in some cases have better stats.
