LUMIX DMC-FX01

The 6-megapixel LUMIX DMC-FX01 has a 28mm* wide angle 3.6x optical zoom f/2.8 LEICA DC lens housed in a compact body as slim as its predecessor, the DMC-FX9, achieved thanks to the incorporation of a Extra High Refractive Index Aspherical Lens(EA Lens). This new wide angle lens lets you easily capture large groups of people indoors or expansive architectural structures and sceneries with dynamic width and rich perspective. The lens part comprises of a LEICA DC lens of seven elements in six groups, incorporating four aspherical lenses to generate high optical performance while preserving the compactness of the unit. The LEICA DC VARIO-ELMARIT lens inherits both its name and its outstanding quality from the LEICA ELMARIT lens, renowned in the film camera world for its superb performance and compact size.
