 Lots of features to explore May 6, 2008
ticia (Washington, DC United States)
My husband I made a quick pic purchase based upon some customer reviews and industry ratings. Everyone was on point. This camera can be a simple, yet effective point and shoot for a true novice but it also has a variety of settings that are fun to play with. We had a lot of fun while in the Dominican Republic using the sports setting to try and catch motorcycle taxis zooming by. We also got great vibrant photos of many beautiful flowers and the wide angle lens allowed us some gorgeous shots of the oceanside and beach. The water looks almost as blue in our photos as it was in real life. The only downside that we've experienced so far, is that when we go to upload new photos to our computer it automatically pulls all of them, which can take a long time if you have many photos stored. However, there may be a simple fix for this that we have not uncovered because neither one of us have bothered much with the manual :)
 Best 10x Point-and-Shoot Camera Around May 2, 2008
Neal Wagner (Michigan)
This is the second Panasonic camera I have purchased (the first being a DMC-F1), and I am very pleased.
At the $200 price point, this camera is an EXCELLENT value. I would recommend it over the TZ5K that just came out, I just don't think the improvements make up for the additional cost.
This is not an ultra-portable camera, but still fits very nicely in a coat pocket, or in jeans pockets if you are wearing a relaxed fit. However, you won't find a camera with a 10x zoom that is any smaller.
Many people have criticized this camera for producing a lot of noise with image stabilization on. This hasn't really been a problem for a casual photographer like myself.
The zoom is wonderful, and I think you'll find yourself wondering how you lived 3x zoom cameras before this. I do.
The only drawback is that I feel that the shutter could break (it looks pretty weak). I've read other reviews complaining about this, so I'm being extra careful with mine.
Otherwise... great camera... pick one up today.

Excellent all-purpose digital camera May 1, 2008

I had a older model Lumix camera at work, and loved it so much that I recently purchased this model for personal use. Now, after a mishap involving Atlantic Ocean saltwater (it's not waterproof, trust me), I am planning to purchase another one as a replacement.
I really apprecate the rechargable battery, wide-angle lens, and its solid, compact design. The controls are simple to use, yet offer enough options for moderately advanced photographers.
Word of caution: Panasonic does not believe in customer service. If you have a problem with your camera, you're probably out of luck.

What a great product. I was looking for a decent priced camera that took both video and still photos with a good zoom and I certainly found it. A week later, I was shooting beautiful shots of a once in my lifetime vacation and was impressed immediately. The instructions were pretty much to the point and several 'specialty' shot features 'developed' into a truly great shot. I also purchased a 8G card and shot all week with PLENTY of space to spare. Only had to recharge once during the week. The 10X video has an excellent quality, even at night. I would have liked it to zoom during the video shoot, but I learned quickly that I could change the zoom during a pause and it worked nicely. This is the best camera I have ever owned, and I got it much lower here than the Panasonic Direct website!!
