Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LZ2 Review at Imaging Resource
Imaging Resource have reviewed the 5 megapixel Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LZ2, which features a 6x optical zoom lens and an Optical Image Stabilizer to combat camera shake.
“With the minimalist styling that’s been a hallmark of the company’s Lumix lineup, the Panasonic DMC-LZ2 looks clean and functional, with a 6x Lumix DC Vario optical zoom lens that dominates the front panel. Measuring 4.0 x 2.5 x 1.3 inches (101 x 64 x 33 millimeters), the DMC-LZ2 weighs approximately 7.8 ounces (222 grams) with the battery and storage card installed. The DMC-LZ2’s all-plastic, matte-silver body helps keep the camera’s weight down, but does tend to give the initial reaction that it feels somewhat cheap. There’s very little creak or flex to any of the body panels, but this was the first impression from several people who had occasion to handle the camera during the review process. While it definitely won’t fit into your shirt pocket, an accompanying wrist strap offers a sense of security when carrying the camera - but I’d also recommend picking up at least a small camera bag to protect the lens.”
