Camera Overview — Panasonic DMC-TS2

The Panasonic LUMIX TS2 is a rugged point-and-shoot compact camera built around a 14MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor powered by the Venus Engine HD II image processor. It's designed for adventurers who need a camera that can handle tough conditions — the body carries a weather-sealed rating and is constructed from a combination of metal and plastic materials, keeping weight at a manageable 188g within compact 99 x 63 x 24mm dimensions. The ISO range runs from 80 to 6400, giving the camera flexibility across a range of lighting situations.

For focusing, it uses a contrast detection system with face detection AF and AI-based subject tracking across 11 focus points. On the back sits a fixed 2.7-inch LCD with 230,000-dot resolution for composing and reviewing shots. Optical image stabilization (OIS) helps reduce blur during handheld shooting.

The camera supports SD, SDHC, and SDXC memory cards, connects via USB and Mini HDMI output, and runs on a Panasonic DMW-BCF10E battery rated at approximately 300 shots per charge. A built-in flash with multiple modes — Auto, On, Off, Red-eye, and Slow Sync — rounds out the core feature set. Video is captured at up to 30fps in 8-bit Standard color profile.

Burst mode is available at up to 1.8 frames per second.
