Love this camera, but it was a bit scary. For me it was to much to remember to take a good photo. This would be great for some one who would like take professional photos and make a profession. I returned it and got a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ38EB. Which I love.

Great camera, I am new to this kind of camera having only had little digital ones, everything seems to work great, and the best part about it , there is a book with it !! thankyou panasonic for that it means if i'm stuck i can just look in the booklet and not wait until I am at my computer to load a disc, find what it is i need to find etc etc. I love the feel of it , it fits into my hands perfectly. oh yea and the pictures look great too. No one can possibly be disappointed with this camera. I love it so much I will invest in another lens so my pics will be even better.

Well not quite - as this is a very sedate and attractive red. It could almost be a conversation piece during a portrait session. Only time will tell.
Few surprises: Watching this 'product-in-action' on Amazon site, towards the end of the clip it announces "Made in Japan" - however the body and the battery definitely have "Made in China" inscribed (?Trades Description!!)
A very pleasant surprise (not mentioned in the 'box contents')is a comprehensive manual in a BOOK form, THANK YOU PANASONICS. (A matter over which I fell out with Canon sometime back).
The box also contains a soft case and a lens hood/shade for the supplied lens which reverses for storage.
The Lens (Made in Japan): Most interesting feature of this lens is that unlike all Panasonic cameras in upper price bracket, the name LEICA is missing and replaced by LUMIX, though ASPH is still there - mind boggles. In my limited experience with this lens, it totally lacks the 'bite' Panasonic LX3 lens (with almost identical zoom range) is capable of.
The manual zoom-ring takes some getting used to, but its advantages soon become apparent, especially on battery drainage.
Camera+Lens: Has very solid as well as a heavy (considering size) feel to it. For a SLR it is small, for a compact it is too big to be a pocket/handbag camera. Positive aspect of this is that the controls are very easy to find and operate.
The 'optical' view finder, which I used almost all the time,is adequate but nowhere as good as true pentaprism viewfinder.
SO WHAT IS IT: It is not a true SLR, it is not a compact, it is not a bridge-camera. I can only call it " an oversize compact snap -shooting camera with interchangeable lens".
Do I regret buying it? - NO
Will I rush out and buy its compatible long lens? NO WAY. My TZs give me all the long focal lengths (plus more) I need with comparable quality.
Do I get a lot of pleasure out of using it? - A DEFINITE YES.
