Announced yesterday, the new Lumix DMC-FX500 mentioned as the first Panasonic digital camera with a 3-inch touch-screen LCD. It comes with a 25mm ultra-wide-angle Leica DC lens, 5x optical zoom, and 10.1 megapixels CMOS sensor. Other interesting feature include HD capability.

“With the FX500’s touch-screen operation, we are giving our consumers a new interface that we think will prove extremely intuitive during playback, photo organization and of course – helping to take high-quality photos,” said Alex Fried, National Marketing Manager, Imaging, Panasonic Consumer Electronics Company. “The FX500 represents a new flagship model for Panasonic, as we add brand-new capabilities to our already popular, slim and stylish FX-Series of LUMIX digital cameras and we introduce another model that features a 25mm ultra-wide-angle lens.”
