Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ2

 Digital Photography Review

Panasonic has today announced the DMC-FZ2, this new camera appears to a development of the DMC-FZ1 which keeps the body design and 12x optical zoom stabilized F2.8 lens and two megapixel sensor. Indeed the changes appear to be under the skin, the FZ2 adds aperture and shutter prioirity, white balance fine tuning and color saturation control. As with the previous model the FZ2 will be available in both black and silver and is supplied with a lens hood.
