Panasonic lumix DMC -FX5OO compact digital camera . 10mp CCD SENSOR . FULLY TESTED AND FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND WORKING
Original Panasonic battery included .
No battery charger or sd card included in the sale .
THE CAMERA IS LISTED AS SPARES AND REPAIRS FOR ONE SMALL REASON . THERE IS FROM A GUESS , A DUST PARTICLE ON THE SENSOR OR IN THE LENS THAT SHOWS ON THE RESULTS AS A DARK SPOT WHEN THE LENS IS ZOOMED . THATS MY GUESS THOUGH . I HAVE INCLUDED SOME IMAGES SO ANY POTENTIAL BUYER UNDERSTANDS WHAT I MEAN AND CAN CLEARLY SEE .
HOPEFULLY THIS ISSUE CAN BE FIXED AS OTHERWISE THE CAMERA IS IN GOOD OVERALL CONDITION AND WORKING AND RESULTS FROM IT ARE GOOD ( APART FROM THE DARKER SPOT SHOWING IN RESULTS WHEN THE LENS IS ZOOMED )
I have upload some sample images I took with the camera in the images provided and hopefully it can be seen when I zoom the lens in the video .
The camera has been tested and is fully functional.
THE CAMERAS TOUCH SCREEN IS WORKING.
The camera uses a SD memory card to store images on (not included ). Please remember to not use a too high a capacity memory card in these older digicams or the cameras electrical circuits tend to put up a memory card error on screen . I always play safe with a card of around 4gb or lower.
The camera is in overall good condition with no damage to its bodywork .Cosmetically the cameras silver body work only has light signs of use. Please see images provided as they are part of the description.
The battery compartment is clean and the battery door shut securely .
The Cameras flash is working.
All function buttons operate correctly.
The rear LCD display is fully functional. Its surface does have some light surface marks . Please see images included .
The lens of the camera zooms in and out correctly and the lens itself has no marks or scratches or signs of haze or fungus. The lens blinds open and close correctly.
The camera battery charges to full capacity . Being an older battery , I cannot vouch for how long it hold its charge as I’ve only used the camera for test shots and to test all its functions are operating correctly . Older battery’s loose there capacity to hold there charge over time so I always advise the buyer to invest in a new battery in case this one does not get you through a day of use .
The camera will be carefully boxed and the posted Royal Mail tracked 48. Buyer pays for postage.
As listed as spares and repairs and I have clearly stated the issue with the camera , there is no return on the item .
I have found an online copy of the camera’s instruction manual in the link below and further information as well .
