Panasonic DMC-FS15 Black 12.1 Megapixel Digital Camera - DMCFS15K

iA Mode for One-Touch Beauty
Press the iA button, aim, and shoot. With the FS15, taking great photos is that easy. iA Mode activates six detection and correction functions - including Tracking AF, which locks on and follows your subject - so you get beautiful, clear shots.

• Mega O.I.S. helps prevent blurring when the camera shakes
  
• Intelligent ISO Control helps prevent blur caused by subject motion
  
• Intelligent Scene Selector selects the optimal scene mode for the situation
  
• Intelligent Exposure adjusts the brightness of dark areas in the image
  
• Face Detection AF/AE helps deliver clear portraits
  
• Tracking AF locks the focus onto your moving subject

LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens with 5x optical zoom
The 29mm wide-angle lens captures a wider area than a standard 35mm lens. Add the superior rendering performance of the Leica DC lens, 5x optical zoom power, and a Zoom Macro* function that lets you get within 0.03 ft (1cm) of your subject, and the FS15 is fully equipped to capture a wide variety of beautiful, expressive shots.
*In 3M (4:3) or below recording.

Large, easy-to-see Intelligent 2.7-inch LCD
The high-resolution, 230,000-dot LCD makes it easier to frame the shot before you shoot and check the results after you shoot. It also makes it more fun to view your photos with family and friends.

The brightness changes to match your surroundings
The LCD brightness automatically adjusts in nine steps to match the brightness of your surroundings. This ensures good viewability even outdoors on a sunny day, and improved viewing comfort when you're inside a dark room.

Easy-to-read display with large fonts
To prevent mistakes reading the remaining battery display and other settings, you can enlarge the fonts for easier viewing.
