Photos: Lady Elliot Island, Great Barrier Reef

By Derek Fung on 25 February 2008

Where better to launch a range of new cameras and camcorders than at the Great Barrier Reef?

On one windswept weekend, Panasonic launched seven Lumix cameras and nine camcorders at the Lady Elliot Island eco resort, located at the southern end of Great Barrier Reef. One of only six island resorts on the reef, it has a grass airstrip that stretches the entire length of the island and can only be reached commercially via prop jet.

Starfish
We found this little beauty -- no, we're not wearing khaki as we type this -- lying with some mates in a shallow water coral bed. The blue sea star (linckia laevigata) is one of more common varieties of starfish.
