"Panasonic has added manual control and GPS to its popular Leica-lensed
Lumix ZS3, " which also has this new " Landmark recognition." in it.

Undernight a picture of the empire state building it will automatically say
"empire state building".
But I say its unfair as the GPS is tipping it off.
What else would it be?*

I'm waiting for face recognition where it tells you who the person is.
I bet it hits before the year 2525.
In just a year or two they could start with "celebrity face recognition"
In case your sitting next to one at a starbucks and you cant place them.
