Description — Panasonic DMC-LS6
The Panasonic LUMIX LS6 is a compact point-and-shoot camera centered on a 14MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor capable of capturing images at up to 4320x3240 pixels. It offers four color profiles — Standard, Vivid, Black & White, and Sepia — for some in-camera creative control. The camera features Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) to help keep shots sharp when shooting handheld.
Autofocus is managed by a contrast detection system with 9 focus points, and the primary framing tool is a 2.7-inch fixed LCD with 230,000 dots of resolution. For video, the LS6 handles 720p at 30fps in 8-bit color. The built-in flash reaches up to 4.6m at wide angle and 2.0m at tele.
ISO spans 100 to 6400. The camera's reliance on 2x AA batteries (alkaline or NiMH) is a practical convenience for travel. The plastic body measures 97 x 62 x 27 mm and weighs 172g, and storage is via SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards.
