5 Stars Freaking beautiful camera, LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT
I bouht this camera to replace a lemon of a Nikon P90 that took yellowish tint pictures all the time and had no white point setting, what? NO WHITE POINT SETTING? COME ON!? WHERES THE SLR LIKE CAMERA IN THAT!

I shipped it back to amazon and they promptly refunded me, great service and I ordered this.

The image quality is superb, even if you barely have set up the camera it looks great, slightly noisy when you have 22x of zoom but I expect that from any digital camera after you hit the 18x optical and slip into digital zoom, It still looks freaking awesome.

The image quality in the DEAD OF NIGHT is beautiful. [...]

You can also see the image which I took at 22x zoom!

Beautiful camera and I will be sticking to the Panasonic name for a while now, the Nikon is good in the D series but the P series is god aweful from my experience.

The battery life on this camera is awesome, just like my Nikon D40 but even boasts HD videos![...]

5 Stars Worthwhile upgrade
Upgraded from my FZ-18 because of the major improvements. HD jpeg movie is amazing with focusing while zooming and with stereo sound. Movie button on back enables fast switch from still to movie and back. 12 mp ccd gives denser colors and greater optical zoom when dropping to 3 mp. Auto focus tracking is uncanny as it tracks the locked target across the LCD/EVF. Review switch is now on the back for quick review. The old review button is replaced by a function button enabling it to be set for five possible functions. There is so much flexibility in the camera, the operating manual had to be put on a CD for PDF viewing of its 219 pages. Basic instructions come in a paper version. Fabulous camera for a little over $300. Sold my used FZ-18 for a good price.

5 Stars Love my camera
I had a Lumix DMC-FZ class camera before, so I had high expectations. They have been met. A few gripes, none serious: It took a little while to learn the new system (on-off switch is on the top of the camera now, not at the top right edge of the back — my thumb keeps reaching for it there). I missed being able to focus manually by twisting the lens, but someone who never had a film SLR won’t have that problem. I hate the tweet the camera emits when it autofocuses, but that can be turned off (sacrificing the shutter sound, too, sadly). The amber light that the camera projects when I use autofocus scares off wildlife. Hate that. The default shutter seems not quite as quick as the old camera’s.

On the good side, it takes very good pictures. It’s quite a bit lighter and smaller than my other Lumix, so it’s easier to carry. The battery lasts ages, and when it has to be topped up, I love the new battery charger. Such an intelligent design with fold-out tines in the back of the cube; no need for wires. Thank you, Panasonic, for the cable that attaches to the lens cap. Previously had to improvise my own. The camera takes good pictures without flash in less light than before. The longer lens is a joy. I like the shoot/review thumb switch instead of the old system of turning the wheel to the green arrow. I like that I can adjust the length of auto-review time. In fact, so many more of the functions can be customized that I’ve barely begun to explore their extent. I’m looking forward to experimenting.

5 Stars dj fom mass.
Camera does everything they say it will do , but don,t buy it if you want a common point & shot! This camera comes with the best online manual I’ve ever seen! You need to take advantage of it to get the full range of amazing capabilities. So far very happy with results!
