Photographer’s friend
Panasonic’s 5-megapixel Lumix digital camera, the DMC-FX7, features an Optical Image Stabilizer to automatically detect and correct hand movement, and a high-performance Leica lens for exceptional rendering and vivid color reproduction. Other improvements include a 6.35-cm LCD image display and a second-generation Venus Engine LSI to handle image processing. Price: CZK 13,995.
