I bought this camera on a whim and don't regret it. The price was great, the camera is light and easy to travel with, battery life impressive, cameras functions are easy to use and picture couldn't be better. I love the size of the screen shot and the many options this camera offers. I'd buy it again.

This is a very good camera. Takes great pictures. It is a very nice size, fits in your pocket or purse easily, so you can always have it handy. It is also very easy to use. It's a very good buy.

I love the LCD screen. the stabilizer was very important to me as well as quick and easy to use timer. the timer has several settings as well. you can take pictures in motion, in the darkest of areas and from far away. i took a picture in the park of all the trees and was able to zoom in on a squirrel and crop it as another picture. the battery life is not the best. Invest in a back up.
I gave it 4 out of 5 because once your pics are viewed and saved on your computer thay go into a hidden folder in your camera. i wanted to save a picture on camera to show a friend without access to a PC. this could be a feature i have yet to figure out. as for the rest of the fuctions it is very easy to follow.

I bought this camera for my wife because she wanted something small and simple as an alternative to my camera. It is definitely small easily fitting in a purse or shirt pocket. The quality feels good and the option for a pink color was a nice touch. The necessary functions of the camera are easy to find and use. I know that, because if they weren't my wife would be more frustrated and lets me know when she can't figure something out. It takes decent snapshots. Not being one to work with lots of features, she manages just fine.

This is the third digital camera I bought, all Panasonic. I have done detailed pre-purchase comparisons I find that Panasonic has high quality and features for a better price than the more well-known brands such as Canon or Sony. I do select for media type and rule out anything that doesn't use SD cards because I have lots of them from several devices. It doesn't have a viewfinder, but the LCD screen is big and bright covering most of the back of the camera. Image stabilization is a good feature for someone who takes snapshots without thinking about the camera settings.

I haven't evaluated the fine points of picture quality... that's not what I bought the camera for. Her first use was to take new-born pictures of our grandson. We were all satisfied with the results.

I ordered this product in early October and received a notice about ten days later that it was delayed but have heard nothing since and it is now late November.

i have an fz50 and a leica d-lux 2 made along with panasonic. my wife wanted a pocket replacement for her ancient casio with a postage stamp size screen. she picked this one in spite of a lack of viewfinder. it is truly pocket size and quick reacting. beautiful results. don't expect miracles shooting in low light without a flash. turn the flash on and live with it, or practioce alot with the flash off. panasonic makes solid electronics, and leica lenses are the best.

Perfect size. Great stabilizer, great photos. It takes the picture very fast and not having to wait to take the next photo. It's just great, I love it!

This camera was so awesome, it was stolen from me. I'm not rich, so I'll wait to write another review until I know more, but for the week or so we were together, it took perfect pictures, had some cool settings, took a decent video(even in the dark ;)
