      Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX55

      By Jackson Lynch

      Review summary: Built around a lens forged in the vaunted house of Leica, the FX55 is packed with a laundry list of features: an ultra wide zoom with twin mode optical image stabilization, three aspect ratios, and a three-inch LCD. Sweet specs, right? Yup, they are. ...
