Fujifil Finepix and Panasonic Lumix Pocket Cameras

The Fujifilm FinePix F80EXR is a very respectable compact pocket size camera by all accounts. It has a mega-zoom feature that may appeal to some. This particular camera has 12 megapixels which are great for creating large, clear prints. And considering its advanced functions, it is a reasonably priced camera. The EXR sensor has three modes of EXR that can be selected. Because of these different modes, you essentially have three cameras in one. Highest resolution, optimum dynamic range, and lowest possible noise are the three different modes for you to choose from. But the most impressive feature is the F80EXR can also analyze the scene and make the best selection for you to ensure the best picture possible. Next in line for our discussion is the Canon PowerShot SD870 IS. There are not a lot of differences over the SD850 IS camera, but there are some attractive cosmetic differences, though. There is an increase from 8 to 8.3 megapixels and the LCD display is slightly larger being 3 inches rather than 2.5. The camera features advanced technology and the Digic III image processor. This camera has shorter processing time partly due to the phenomenal face detection feature that is capable of detecting up to nine faces. The camera has an updated version that includes a controller pad that is better ergonomically and responsively.

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5 offers a great experience that is less specialized and more of an overall application. This camera does lack jpeg processing abilities but you won't be disappointed in your photos. This is a 10.1 megapixel pocket size camera with a 3 inch TFT LCD display. The LX5 is the follow up to the super successful DMC-LX3. Improving on the LX3 was quite the task for Panasonic.

From what we've seen, the improvements are that much. The LX5 has a sensor that is about 30% more sensitive than the LX3. Because the LX5 LCD uses a higher index for color rendering along with LED back lighting, it has improved color on its prints.

For many reasons, it's a real challenge to choose the best pocket size digital camera. Your best course of action may be to identify your needs, work out your budget, and then find a camera that best meets both. Keep in mind that unless you're planning to print out large prints of the photos, high pixel counts should not be your first priority. It's important not to be swayed by marketing campaigns that might try to convince you that you need high pixel numbers.
