The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS7 is a compact digital camera from Panasonic's FS series, announced in March 2009 as an accessible point-and-shoot aimed at everyday and travel photography.
It has a 10.1-megapixel CCD sensor sized around 1/2.5 inch, a Leica-branded 4x optical zoom lens starting at a 33mm equivalent wide angle with a maximum aperture of f/2.8-5.9, a 2.7-inch LCD with 230,000 dots, MEGA optical image stabilisation, 9-point autofocus with face detection and tracking, movie recording up to 848x480, and storage to SD/SDHC/MMC cards plus built-in memory.
Its bright f/2.8 wide-angle aperture and face-tracking autofocus were relatively advanced for a budget compact of the time, making it more capable in dim indoor light than many similarly priced rivals.
Used prices are modest; buyers should test the zoom lens for smooth, quiet extension, check image stabilisation engages, and verify the battery still holds a reasonable charge given the age of these 2009-era lithium-ion packs.
