[CES 2010] Panasonic will be releasing its latest ultra-slim Lumix FP3 compact digital camera sometime in 2010. The FP3 will sport a 14-megapixel sensor, 4x optical zoom, image stabilization, face detection, HD video capture, and a 3-inch touchscreen (which seems to be gaining popularity with cameras nowadays). Thanks to the touchscreen, you’ll also be able to use your finger to touch and focus, before taking the picture. Hopefully this camera won’t be released too late into 2010, eh?

CES: CES is the acronym for the (International) Consumer Electronics Show, one of the largest consumer-electronics shows in the world. Although it is held in Las Vegas today, the first CES happened in June 1967 in New York City and Bob Gavin, the CEO of Motorola was the opening keynote speaker for that first edition. Subsequently, CES was held twice a year: the summer edition was in New York, and the winter edition was in Las Vegas, that is, until 1998 when CES became a once-a-year show. CES has been the introduction place for key products and technologies, including: Pong (1975), Nintendo NES (1985), Tetris (1988), Compact Disc (1991), HDTV (1998), Xbox (2001), Blu-Ray (2003), OLED TV (2008).
