Photos: The touchscreen Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500

Touchscreens and sliders and manual exposure are made for each other. Unlike other touchscreen compacts, monkeying with exposure doesn't involve tapping at either end: you actually slide the slider handles with your finger. It's responsive enough to deal with stops, the increments that exposure is measured in, although we have to admit we're less keen on the slightly-too-recessed mini-joystick.

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500 is out now for £250 -- for more, check back soon for our full, in-depth, no holds-barred, no button-unpressed review. You'll thank us.
