Pros:
Optical image-stabilization. |
 |
Cons:
Unfortunate design, erroneous exposures, color issues. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
 |
| The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS80 offers optical image-stabilization and not much else. We weren't thrilled with the design, which struck us as lopsided and off-balance. Exposures were problematic as well, and we got no help from manual controls, which the camera lacks. Color reproduction was also sketchy. Considering these issues, buyers at this price-point would probably be better served looking at a Casio or a Canon. |
