Slim is in; no one seems to deny or pose an opposition to that, especially when it comes to gadgets. These days, people want their gadgets – mobile phones, iPods and cameras – to be so thin that they could occupy only a fraction of space inside our pockets. They expect the cameras to be easy to carry – just pop it into the pocket until you find something ‘click’ worthy. These are some areas where a camera like the Panasonic DMC-FP1S will score, because of its ultra slim body and slick design, along with a resolution of 12.1 mp and an optical zoom range of 4x, apart from other features that only an established name like Panasonic can come up with.
Design and FunctioningOne look at the Panasonic DMC-FP1S and the consumer is bound to exclaim at its slim shape and easy ergonomics.
