Panasonic Lumix DMC-XS1 is small and cute, we go hands-on
The big problem with most cameras, and why you end up just using the camera on your phone, is that you haven't got the pocket space to carry around something big and bulky. Not so with the new Panasonic Lumix XS1, a tiny compact camera that should make the perfect accessory for a women's clutch bag...

Excellent Ultra compact
The Panasonic Lumix XS-1 is probably the best ultra compact digital camera currently available. It is far and away a better performer than it's rival the Nikon SO1. The intelligent auto mode makes it almost impossible to take a bad photo.

Great point and shoot
A fantastic point a shoot camera, really quick to turn on and it takes the photos fast as-well. The picture quality is really good, always picking out colours with crisp focus.

Extremely Slim Camera
Bought this because it was the slimmest camera with 5x zoom, and is perfect camera for a shirt pocket with extra capabilities. Has a good feature set and a quality lens. Big disadvantage is that Panasonic has stopped offering cases with their new cameras, so one must buy a third party ill-fitting...
Pros:
- Compact
- good zoom range
Cons:
- no caseoffered

Panasonic Lumix DMC-XS1 camera
This super-slim camera is now a companion to my more versatile, complex larger Panasonic Lumix. It lives up to expectation for photographing documents, everyday scenes and people, while remaining very portable.

Nice Camera, But Poor Screen
This tiny camera takes very good pictures for its size and is easy to use - BUT - make sure you can live with the poor screen. It can only be seen properly when viewed slightly from below, so has to be held above eye level when taking a picture.

Fun for some
Don't expect too much in the way of picture quality but the menu is a dream to use, it's light, slim, cheap and the panorama function works well. It's a fun thing !

Panasonic Lumix DMC-XS1
From the outside, the most noticeable thing about the Panasonic Lumix DMC-XS1 is its thinness. It's only 17.6mm deep which is very thin for the 5x optical zoom lens to fit into. This is down to some innovative Panasonic technology that has made the lens thinner.
