 Wonder~Camera! August 11, 2010
Virtually Done
This is probalby one of the best cameras I have ever owned. It is a really nice camera with very few small cons.
Pros:
+Many features and settings (shutter-priority, aperture priority, program ae, intelligent iso, playback, simple mode, scene mode, print mode, motion picture, manual exposure.)
+Really large display screen, for easy view of pictures
+Pop up flash (only use it when you like to)
+Good zoom lens
+Good variety of additional lenses to buy.
+Change Display (rule of thirds boxes, histogram, ect.)
Cons:
+Not the most "portable" camera.
+Focusing can be slightly difficult when on anything but simple mode.
Overall: This is a really good camera for anyone who is a beginner-amature photographer. It takes really good pictures, and has a lot of settings to help your picture turn out even better.
Even for someone who doesnt know how to use all the features, Simple mode works great! This camera is deffinetly worth the money! :+++++)
 Great for luminous situations poor on dak ones June 21, 2010
Juan Soffia Ahumada (Santiago, Chile)
Great Camera, easy to use, affordable, many manual features. The only thing is the performance on bad light situations. Cannon basic cameras do better than the lumix in that field. The zoom is the best part. And it does great videos also.
Great camera - it will make your next one a DSLR! March 13, 2010

This was a great camera for $300. I loved the shots I took with it and so did everyone that saw them. Especially viewing the whole image.
As is mentioned most places the noise reduction is overly heavy handed and when you zoom in and view the images at 100% (view pixels) they don't look so hot. Detail is smeared etc. BUT, you can shoot RAW files with this camera and therefore control the noise reduction, sharpening, white balance, and exposure tweaks on your computer.
The more you master this camera the more it will make you want a true digital SLR, to take care of the few things that this camera is not great at. Examples: not fast enough autofocus for fast-moving subjects (birds in flight); shutter lag, while not terrible I still got the back of my child's head rather than the front more often than not; depth of field: there's too much! With the aperture wide open everything still seems pretty sharp. I was unable to get much background blur, and bokeh is more or less nonexistent. High ISO (film speed): this camera really doesn't look very good shot at faster than 400, and not very good at 400 either. The shots really only look good at 100 ISO.
If I had it to do over again I would have tried to get at least the cheapest Canon Digital Rebel, which NOW are easily less than $600. Instead, last year I upgraded to a Canon EOS 40D, and there's really no comparison. If you're old enough to have used a film SLR well, then you HAVE to get a DSLR. Everything will feel natural again. If you're not that old, or don't care about those things and just want a long lens, then this is, or was, hard to beat.
If you are really interested in photography and want to learn and study the art form, then you really want a digital SLR. You can take great photos with this camera, but I don't think you can learn how and why to make better photos with it. But if you do, you'll also soon learn the limitations of this camera.
I'm using it as my backpacking camera, or anywhere I don't want to take the heavy and expensive DSLR. And shooting only in RAW.
Cámara digital January 4, 2010
Premia Cash Back (Alajuela, Costa Rica)
Fina, versátil, bien dotada. Es una super cámara y con alta capacidad. En el modo ISO tiene ruido, pero eso es normal en las cámaras digitales.
Oh how I love my Lumix! September 7, 2009
Beth Stafford (Georgia)
This is a really great camera for those wanting a little more quality than you get with the pocket models.
I am by no means a photography expert, I just enjoy getting the best pics I can of my children, so I can only offer you my opinion as a click happy soccer mom. But in my experience this Lumix takes great shots in all conditions. It does, however, take a little getting used to and I highly suggest you read the manual in order to truly get everything you can out of it.
It is by far my favorite camera (I also have a 35 mm Fuji and a Kodak digital) and not only would I recommend it to a friend but I have, and two of my friends have also bought Lumix cameras with no regrets.
