Camera Overview — Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35

The Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FX35 is a compact point-and-shoot camera built around a 10MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor paired with Panasonic's Venus Engine IV image processor. It covers an ISO range of 100 to 1600, giving shooters reasonable flexibility across different lighting conditions. Images are captured at a maximum resolution of 3648x2736 pixels, and the camera supports a burst mode at up to 2.5 frames per second — handy for capturing moments that unfold quickly.

Optical image stabilization (OIS) is built in, working directly in the optical path rather than relying on a digital crop-based approach. The autofocus system uses contrast detection with face detection AF across 9 focus points, making it straightforward to use for everyday photography. The 2.5-inch TFT LCD display with 230,000 dots serves as the primary framing and review tool, as there is no viewfinder.

Video recording tops out at 720p at 30fps in 8-bit Standard color. The metal body measures 95 x 52 x 22 mm and weighs 146g, keeping it genuinely pocketable. Storage options include SD, SDHC, and internal storage.

The CGA-S008E battery is rated for approximately 300 shots per charge.
