The DMCLX2S Lumix Digital Camera is the professional camera for the person on the go. It has a stylish compact design yet packs the punch of a high resolution camera. This camera also has a feature that stabilizes the image if you have shaky hands or if you are in zoom mode and you do not want the picture come out blurry. This compact camera is not like the others, there is an aspect ratio that is easily selectable between 16:9 wide, 3:2, and conventional 4:3 with a switch located on top of the lens barrel to shoot in the framing aspect that best suits the subjects' composition or image's purpose of use. The DMCLX2S also can record wide 16:9 high definition (1280 x 720) motion image at 15 frames per second, now that’s impressive.

Aspect Ratios

The 16: 9 aspect ratios CCD provides wide-screen expression. Capturing intricately detailed images in full 10.2-megapixel resolution, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX2S controls your every photography need.

MEGA Optical Image Stabilizer

LUMIX's popular MEGA O.I.S. suppresses the blurring caused by handshake, and Intelligent ISO Control minimizes blurring caused by subject movement when photographing children, animals, or other moving subjects. You can even operate this during an earthquake and still get a crisp shot.

Focus

Choose from 1-point AF (normal or high speed), 3-point high speed AF, 9-point AF, Spot AF, AF macro to focus from as close as .16 feet (5cm) from the subject, or manually focus using the joystick. Focusing is made easier by the Manual Focus Assist function, which lets you enlarge the center of the LCD image to check the focus, and the AF Assist Lamp for focusing in dimly lit places.

Shutter

Shooting with the Venus Engine II's release time lag of around 0.008 seconds and shutter interval of around 0.4 seconds, the DMC-LX2K is lighting fast. You can snap off consecutive shots at 3 frames per second with full resolution. And with Unlimited Consecutive Shooting, you can keep shooting until the memory card is full.
