The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35 is a slim 10.1 Megapixel compact with a 4x optically stabilised lens. Announced in January 2008, it comes just six months after its predecessor the Lumix FX33, which itself came only seven months after the Lumix FX30.
Panasonic may have kept essentially the same body design as its predecessor, but has equipped the FX35 with a new lens: a 4x optical zoom to the FX33’s 3.6x. While you’d assume this would simply allow greater magnification at the telephoto end, Panasonic has in fact chosen to extend the wide angle range. So rather than having the 28-100mm equivalent coverage of the FX33, the new FX35 boasts 25-100mm coverage. This equips it with unusually wide angle facilities for a compact camera.
