this camera, even beginners can get great shots, because it comes with an 8-megapixel CCD sensor and a stabilised lens, all in a slim and stylish case.

The DMC-LS80 is equipped with a 3x optical zoom and an improved 35 mm-equivalent focal length of 33-100 mm, so you can integrate even more elements into your photos, as you could with a standard wide-angle lens. The Lumix DMC-LS80 also has a Mega O.I.S. stabiliser, which compensates for the effects of camera shake, and a Venus Engine III image processor to improve the quality of images by giving them better contrast and finish. There is even a number of scene and colour modes to help you take that perfect photo. You don't have to be a digital camera expert to take great photos with the DMC-LS80.
