About the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP5
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP5 is a slim compact released in January 2011. A 1/2.33-inch CCD sensor of about 14 megapixels sits behind a 4x optical zoom that covers 35-140 mm in 35mm terms at F3.5-5.9.
At 101 x 59 x 18 mm and 141 g, it is built to disappear into a jacket pocket. The lens starts at 35 mm rather than at a wide angle, so it suits portraits, tabletop shots and general snapshots more than cramped interiors, and 140 mm brings in distant details moderately. The 3-inch monitor handles framing and review, and images are stored on SD, SDHC or SDXC cards. Keeping the zoom at 4x lets the body stay thin, which is the main character of this model: a light camera you can carry every day without planning for it.
Buying one used
The camera takes a dedicated lithium-ion battery, so confirm it holds a charge and that a charger comes with it. Check how the 4x lens extends and retracts, look over the 3-inch display, and try an SD, SDHC or SDXC card.
