I have 2 FH20's which are small and have fairly good image quality with 14mp. I also have an FH25 which is similar with 16mp. I would like more zoom but the 8x is ok. MY FAVORITE ALL-TIME CAMERA IS a ZS5 with 12.1 mp and a 12x zoom. I'm on my second. Beautiful pics w great image stabilization. I have a zs40 w 18.1 mp. *Problem is they were never able to improve on the 12.1 mp. (It's a long story) Get a used ZS 5 OR 6 if you can find one or a ZS40 or 50 if you have the money. You will be glad you did. But, less is more here, and the 12.1mp is perfect. Don't spend more for 16 or 18mp; you WILL NOT like the pics better. If you want a ZS50 and don't have the money you will love a used zs5. I do.

This is a very good camera. It is particularly good, better than the newer model DMC FH-25 (which I also own) in very low light. Panasonic Customer Service people are great. I had a particular low light question about my newer model so I called them and they researched it with their engineers in Japan before calling me back with specifics. It turns on very quickly, has great burst speeds and an exceptional zoom for a small compact camera. The Intelligent Auto button on top is a great feature that can make anyone look like a professional. The Macro features work well and produce very detailed pics. This camera is simple to use and easily mastered. I think this is a can't miss purchase.
So far I love everything, but Im still learning the camera. I take a lot of Macro shots, and it has a special feature just for that, so I'm happy. Color stays vivid at close range shots, Zoom feature is great. Normal pictures are awesome. It has many features to have fun with. Best of all, it's easy to use I looked at the comparisons on line to see what one shot camera rated best for year 2010, and the Panasonic fh20, was high in the top 10 best camera list
What a great little camera! I have had about a half dozen digital cameras since my first Minolta Dimage5 in 2000. This little instrument has 14 MP and an 8X optical zoom plus several manual settings. There are two Auto settings and the "IA" never seems to fail. I have taken a lot of pictures in the last dozen years mostly with manual settings but this camera is smarter and more consistent than I am. The one feature missing is the LED only. No optical viewfinder. I bought a refurbished for a little over $100. To see my work go to - http://www.pbase.com/xray
