Control Options
 
Picture Quality / Size Options
There are three different aspect ratios the camera can shoot with on the native 16:9 image sensor, and plenty of image size options for each format.

Because the sensor is a true 16:9 chip, you need to use this mode to get the full 10 megapixel resolution. In the 16:9 mode, the options are 4224 × 2376, 3840 × 2160, 3072 × 1728 and 1920 × 1080 pixels. In the 3:2 aspect ratio mode, the options are 3568 × 2376, 3248 × 2160, 2560 × 1712 and 2048 × 1360 pixels. In the conventional 4:3 mode, you get the choice of 3168 × 2376, 2880 × 2160, 2304 × 1728, 2048 × 1536, 1600 × 1200 and 1280 × 960 pixels. Three image quality options are available for all of these modes: Fine, Standard, and Raw.
 
Picture Effects Mode
The Lumix LX2 gives you some limited options for color effects; you can shoot pictures in Cool, Warm, Black & White or Sepia mode. It is also possible to tweak the Contrast, Sharpness and Saturation of the images. These options are available before snapping the picture though – not in the playback mode like on some cameras. Panasonic skips the gimmicky effects like text and built-in frames, and we don’t miss them.

    This professionally-geared ultrazoom offers some of the best color accuracy we've ever seen. It's a shame the other scores weren't quite so strong. Read full 16-part review

    Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ47

    Panasonic resists the urge to cram more megapixels and more focal length into their latest ultrazoom. The FZ47 instead focuses on image quality and features, resulting in an incredibly strong camera that we loved shooting with. Read full 16-part review
