Description — Panasonic DMC-LS80
The Panasonic LUMIX LS80 is a compact point-and-shoot built for simplicity and portability. Its 8MP sensor sits in a 1/2.5-inch format and is processed by the Venus Engine III image processor. Shooting flexibility comes from an ISO 100–6400 range and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) to counteract hand movement.
The autofocus system uses Contrast Detection paired with Face Detection AF, helping the camera lock onto subjects with minimal fuss. Framing is handled through the 2.5-inch TFT LCD display at 230,000 dots — there is no viewfinder. The camera supports SD and SDHC cards alongside internal storage, and connects to a computer via USB.
The built-in flash covers up to 5.9m at wide angle (ISO Auto), with multiple modes including Red-Eye Reduction and Slow Sync. Power comes from 2x AA batteries, delivering around 180 shots (alkaline) per charge. The plastic body weighs 129g and measures 95.7 x 62.0 x 31.2 mm, making it easy to slip into a pocket.
Video recording is available at up to 480p/30fps in 8-bit depth.
