The DMC-FX8 features a 2.5" diagonal high-resolution LCD monitor - surprisingly large for such a compact camera. In addition to displaying the settings in large, easy-to-understand text, you can show up to 25 thumbnail images at once. This makes it easier to search for, and organize, the photos you take. Jitter from shaky hands is one of the main reasons why cameras produce blurry images. We don't expect everyone to have hands of stone when taking pictures--that's why Lumix? cameras help solve the problem of unsteady hands with advanced MEGA Optical Image Stabilizer technology. The DMC-FX8 has a built-in gyrosensor that detects any hand movement and relays a signal to a tiny microcomputer inside the camera, which instantly calculates the compensation needed. A linear motor then shifts the Optical Image Stabilizer lens as necessary to guide incoming light from the image straight to the CCD. You won't even notice it working--all you'll see are the outstanding results! Select the AF setting from Spot, 1-point (normal or high-speed), 3-point high-speed, and 5-point. The 1-point normal setting solves the "image-freezing" that used to happen while focusing on fast-moving subjects, and makes them easier to track. Furthermore, the 1-point high-speed mode slashes conventional AF time to about 1/32. High-speed auto focusing has finally come to the compact digital camera. Plus, the AF Assist Lamp helps when focusing in low lighting. Thanks to the Venus Engine Plus's release time lag of only 0.008 second, the FX8 is super-fast. You can snap consecutive shots at 3 frames per second with full resolution. And with Unlimited Consecutive Shooting, you can keep shooting until the memory card is full. This slim camera features a 3x optical zoom lens (35mm equivalent: 35 to 105mm) with 7 elements in 6 groups, including 3 aspherical lenses. The Extended Optical Zoom, which minimizes the image degradation that normally occurs with digital zooming, gives you up to 4x zooming power. Plus, you can use the 3x optical zoom and 4x digital zoom together to produce a maximum of 12x zooming power. minimize

Write Card Error

Discussion of Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX8K Digital Camera - Black

Posted Apr 17, 2006 - I've had my camera and card for 6 months. Occasionally (1 out of 20 or so), I will get the error "Write error, please check card". The occurs while I am recording 320x240 30 FPS video. The video file is then 0 KB. I can keep taking videos and everything is fine. This is just an occasional annoyance. I tried the card clean up feature, and reformatted afterwards. Still get the error sometimes. Does anyone else have this error? I am trying to see if it is the camera, or the card. I scanned the card in my computer and it found no bad sectors. This can happen at any random place on the card, not the same place every time. My guess is error checking - there is an error while writing to the card (perhaps speed or a bad checksum) and the camera is forced to dump the file. It would really suck if that happened while trying to record a once in a lifetime video!
