Konklusion
Panasonic har med deres DMC-FX55 Lumix præsteret et kamera jeg ikke ville tøve med at anbefale.
Innovation/Teknologi - 4
Ansigtsgenkendelse, understøttelse af HC standarden, Leica optik, 8.1 megapixels (ikke noget nyt), 3.0" LCD skærm, optisk billedstabilisering, 3.6x optisk zoom. Den har alt hvad markedet kunne ønske sig, og det hele er pakket ind i et flot 4-tal.
Bundle/Tilbehør - 3
Kabler, manual, batteri og håndledsrem. Der er lidt programmer med og alt i alt, hvad man kunne forvente. Et jævnt 3-tal gives.
Design/Layout - 4
Intuitivt design, både ergonomisk men bestemt også i menuen. Jeg er let til falds for design som dette. Lettere anonymt, stilet og med en let tyngde, der giver følelsen af kvalitet. Det hele passer sammen og det hele holdes i flotte lige linjer. Det er et klart 4-tal.
Ydelse - 4
Hurtig opstart og et af de hurtigste kompaktkameraer jeg har holdt imellem hænderne. Jeg ville tippe det til at ligge sig lige i slipstrømmen af Canons Digic III baserede (IXUS) modeller. Gennemsyn af billederne afhænger af kortet man bruger, og så overfører man til computeren med over 5 MB/s via USB-stikket. Det kræver en yderligere investering i kortlæser for at overgå denne hastighed. Generelt, så skuffer kameraet ikke. Jeg kunne dog godt ønske mig mere kontrol over ISO-støjen, men desværre, træerne vokser ikke op i himlen. Et jævnt 4-tal gives.
Pris - 4
Det her er så til gengæld en lidt sjov sag. Der er (jf. EDBpriser.dk) nemlig to forskellige priser, alt efter om du vælger den sorte eller sølvfarvede model. Hvor den sølvfarvede er den dyre. Men jeg vil forholde mig til den testede model - selvom der ingen teknisk forskel er - og derfor vurdere ud fra denne. Den ligger sig lige under kr. 2.400,- ( http://www.edbpriser.dk/Products/Listprices.asp?ID=394581 ), og gør sig dermed til en ret så interessant konkurrent til Canons Ixus model, der pt. ligger på omkring kr. 3.000,- (hvor den sølvfarvede DMC-FX55 pt. ligger på kr. 2.900,-). Så jeg ville bestemt mene, at kameraet er en potent konkurrent, og sagtens kunne lære resten af feltet, hvordan kameraer som disse burde skrues sammen. Et fint 4-tal gives.

Panasonic has, with their DMC-FX55 Lumix, presented us a cemera I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
Innovation/Technology - 4
Face detection, support for HC memory, Leica optics, 8.1 Megapixels (nothing new), 3.0" LCD display, optical image stabilizer, 3.6x optical zoom. Everything the market would demand and it's wrapped in a nice score of 4.
Bundle/Accessories - 3
Cables, manual, battery and a handstrap. Some software bundled and in general, what one would expect. A common 3 is given.
Design/Layout - 4
Intuitive design, both in ergonomics but certainly also in menu. I'm easily sold to designs like these. Somewhat anynomus, stylish and a weight, that gives one the feeling of quality. It all fits nice together and is hold in flow of design. A clear 4 is given.
Performance - 4
Fast start up time and one of the fastest compact cameras I've ever held in my hands. I would say, that it's right in the slip stream of Canon's Digic III based (IXUS) models. The speed of image playback depends of the memory card, and via the integrated USB one can transfer images with over 5 MB/s. It requires an additional investment in a card reader to match these speeds. In general, one does not go wanting. I would like some more control, regarding the ISO noise, but - as in all - the trees doesn't grow into the sky. A common 4 is given.
Price - 4
This is a little bit funny. There are (cf. EDBpriser.dk) two different prices on the camera, depending on the color, wheras the black one is the "cheap" and the silver model is the "expensive" one. But I'll stick to the reviewed model, and as such, judge the camera by this price. It's right below 2,400.- DKK ( http://www.edbpriser.dk/Products/Listprices.asp?ID=394581 ), and is therefore a very interesting competitor to Canon's IXUS model. Which - at the moment - is priced somewhat around 3,000.- DKK (where the silver DMC-FX55 model is priced at around 2,900.- DKK). So, I would surely think, that the camera is a very potent competitor, and could easily teach something to the rest of the products. Regarding how cameras like this should be put together. A fine 4 is given.
