What is it: 8-megapixel compact with optical image stabilisation
What we think: Its great image stablisation system can't overcome its poor performance
What you need to know
Reviewed on: 4 April 2008
Tags: panasonic, contrast, optical, canon
We like:
Optically stabilised lens; great colour reproduction; can shoot widescreen video
We don't like:
Noisy, soft pictures; very slow performance
CNET.co.uk judgement:
Though it stands out as one of the least expensive digital cameras to sport optical image stabilisation, the LS80's performance and pictures simply don't hold up against competing budget cameras

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5
Its attractions are almost irresistible, but its performance is too sluggish
