4 out of 5 stars Very Good Images   October 3, 2008
I own this camera and also a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18K 8.1MP Digital Camera with 18x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black). This was my first buy as a digital camera. Honestly speaking I bought only because it was well priced and available only for a reasonable frice giving 4X optical zoom.

I really love this camera because of the image quality it produces both in day and low light situations(with flash). Video quality of this camera is also very good.
The high exposure night mode also works well though it over illuminates the parts with even a small amount of light.

Build: Camera has a good build though it wont fit into your pocket(because of the 2 AA container of the camera used to provide you grip as well)

Technology: Its a good piece of camera in this price range. It gives you excellent quality of image in day time and poor to noisy in dark without flash or less exposure time (but I guess all the camera do the samething)
Colors are slightly non natural and tend to get over exposed(mostly in high light situations or with flash). But you will definately appreciate the quality for indoors and even certain outdoor pics. Dont try to use the camera without a tripod when taking pictures with 4x or more zoom.


Value for money : Good (though I guess Nikon with LiMH batteries can give you better value)

I will recommend this camera for first time users / new users / ppl trying to learn photography and is in there first stage.



3 out of 5 stars Zoom Disappointment   October 3, 2008
We have had this camera 18 months and purchased it for the 4x Zoom and 7.1 megapizels. It takes great photos if you have good light and don't use the max zoom. The shutter speed is slow and it won't take photos of moving objects (i.e., my husband and son in a lazy river). Plus the battery life is terrible and rechargable don't last very long.

Speed between photos is also slow so I can't capture my little guy doing silly stuff.



5 out of 5 stars Amazingly agile   September 13, 2008
I have used a few digital cameras before and this is a nice little pocket camera for the price.


5 out of 5 stars wonderful photo tool   September 1, 2008
I selected this camera based on other reviews and it's advertised 'macro' ability. I'm really pleased with it's performance. Economical and user friendly for general photography and the macro ability lets me take photos of my craft work for display on websites and for emails easily.



4 out of 5 stars Great budget camera!   August 25, 2008
I bought this camera for my daughter. She loves it. It has some neat features such as scene settings to use at the beach, fireworks, aquarium etc. It is a feature packed camera that a kid can manage and it was a great price too! Thanks Amazon.
