I mostly take photos of butterflies and birds, some close up, some far away, and this camera does a GREAT job. The 30x optical zoom is fantastic. (You can't take a bad photo at 30x zoom for far-away shots.) And the 18.1 MP makes it possible to crop pictures and still maintain excellent resolution. Plus it is small, light weight, and portable. It fits in a shirt pocket very nicely and it's easy to grab at a moment's notice. Panasonic does an excellent job with Image Stabilization. It's very easy to hold the camera steady, even with one hand when taking close up pictures. (I've owned other Panasonics in the past and the Image Stabilization has been very good on all of them.) I couldn't be happier.

Most was OK. The problem is that the eyepiece viewer was absolute junk. You could hardly make out any images through it. Everything was so distorted that it was hard to make out what you were looking at IF you could find it. Other thaan that the picture quality was ok & ease of use was ok.

Purchased for less than $155, delivered. (factory refurbished) At 18MP, can enlarge to poster-size with no noticeable loss of sharpness. Has WIFI - can transmit photos from camera to computer, to printer or to TV, wirelessly! Super telephoto to 60X, (amazing close-ups from far, far away) yet still fits in shirt pocket. Handles low lighting well. Has GPS - photos retain ID of where they were shot. Does panoramic shots with ease, and does virtual reality movies. And there's even more. No other camera on the market comes close to matching features and price. I was not compensated for this review.

I've always been a fan of Lumix cameras because of their incredibly clear images. The lens is better quality than those on far more expensive cameras from Canon etc. And you can shove it in your pocket. Its zoom range is outstanding and images are equally sharp right through the range. I mostly let the camera select aperture and exposure but it is easy to switch to a manual or semi-manual mode to increase contrast etc. Panoramic shots are a breeze. The only thing I haven't got to the bottom of yet is connecting it wirelessly to my laptop which is on a school domain. The setup function on the camera is slow as it works like typing in a program name on a TV remote. I think I've got it under control but knowing which one of my many passwords it wants is not easy to figure out. Transferring pics via USB is dead easy, though so I'm not overly concerned about the wi-fi thing and, if your computer isn't on a domain, I'm sure you'd find the task very easy. I strongly recommend this camera if you want a lightweight camera that is easy to use, gives tremendous pictures and has a fantastic zoom range, the kind of thing I used to pay thousands of dollars to get from an SLR.Read full review

A complex camera with amazing features, build quality, high-end Leica optics. It can do most anything a big SLR can do (but with no interchangeable lenses, of course.). Connects to PC via cable or SD card with ease. GPS works great. The only awful thing is WiFi connectivity to PC or direct to the internet (with or without Lumix Club) -- in other words, basically useless, especially when compared to ease of use with the cable. The on-line forums mirror my experience with regard to wireless connectivity. Wireless camera-to-smartphone connectivity is only a bit a better -- which isn't saying much.
