Advantages: Very high build quality, good battery life and performance Disadvantages: Low resolution screen, image stabiliser function unreliable
...better when developed.
Furthermore, Panasonic has marketed this product as featuring an image stabiliser, however after extended use, I have found this feature to be generally unreliable, and very unpredictable so I would recommend that users and potential buyers also invest in a tripod, as this will be an invaluable addition when taking shots in windy conditions and of landscapes.
This camera comes highly recommended. ...

Advantages: 12 x zoom, Mega OIS Disadvantages: No custom bag, Uses own battery (non AA)
...when I come across the Panasonic DMCFZ7BS. For just £30 more, I thought it would be better to get a newer camera. This camera was great; a big improvement over my LZ1. The best thing (and selling point) about this camera is its 12 x zoom. What it did not say on the box is that it becomes 16.5 x zoom if the picture is taken below 6MP, which is over 450mm! The OIS works to cancel out hand shake at such huge zoom numbers. There are bags of controls ... ...Another thing is that Panasonic does not make a custom bag for it. I had to use a SLR bag, but this camera is not really SLR size. I can fit this AND my LZ1 in the bag nicely, which says a lot about the small size of this camera. The main design fault of this camera is the joystick control thing. Most people do not find it easy to use, as it is not in the most natural position. The IR assist lamp tends to be blocked by the other hand, but it still ...

...and manual exposure - the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 weighs in at just over half a pound and is small enough to stick in a backpack when traveling. The DMC-FZ7 packs a wealth of features and functions into its compact body, offering everything from fully automatic "Simple" mode to advanced manual control.

A film camera with an optical zoom this powerful would be so big and heavy, you couldn't handle it with one hand. However, the DMC-FZ7 is small, lightweight and easy to handle. It also has Panasonic's Extended Optical Zoom. While causing minimal deterioration by using the center part of the high resolution CCD, this function magnifies the image to give you total zoom power of 16.5x.

I have owned this camera for over a year now and am very happy with it. Excellent value and quality pictures. Easy to use and an amazing zoom. From a boat the size of a pixel when zoomed in I can read the sail number. Pictures of the moon and the veins in a fly`s wing and pollen coated legs.
Good battery capacity and handles large SD cards to hold 1000`s of pictures.

Advantages: easy to use, stylish Disadvantages: none
I love this digital camera, it is the best camera that i have ever used, it takes extremley clear pictures. It is very easy to use, even for a beginner like me. I used to have a Kodak easyshare, but i found it did not take very good pictures, and didnt have a very large memory. Although this camera dosnt have an internal memory, it does come supplied with a small memory card (16mb - holds about 4/5 pictures at the best quality), which i upgraded ... ...take a while to email, but dont take long to upload to the computer. The pop up flash is very effective, although i dont like the way it pops up, slightly worried that over time this may break. It also includes a red eye reduction which makes a lot of difference to pictures, i always used to get red eyes whenever i used a camera, even if it does have a red eye reduction, but this is the first one that i have found that actually works.

Manufacturer's product description
Panasonic is introducing the 6.0-megapixel DMC-FZ7 with MEGA O.I.S., Optical Image Stabilizer that compensates the hand-shake, incorporating a 12x optical zoom (equivalent to 36mm to 432mm on a 35mm film camera) LEICA DC lens. Differing from the FZ30 with manual focus ring and manual zoom ring, which was already released and highly evaluated by consumers, the FZ7 is more compact and easy to carry while preserving the same powerful zoom capability and manual controllability. It is the heir to the 5.0-megapixel DMC-FZ5, but enhanced not only with the total number of pixels but also with other innovative technical improvements such as incorporation of joystick which allows easy manual control on focusing in addition to the manual exposure setting. The 1.8-Inch LCD monitor for FZ5 has become large as 2.5-Inch for FZ7 gaining much brightness even in the low-lit situations thanks to the pixel-mixed readout method performed at the CCD. Furthermore, the adoption of 710 mAh big battery extends the battery life realizing 320 pictures shooting per a single charge. Last but not least, the FZ7 gains the High Sensitivity mode for one of the new scene modes that allows shooting at Max. ISO 1600 setting as another anti-blurring measure in addition to the MEGA O.I.S. Normally, when shooting with high zoom, shooting indoor or nighttime when shutter speeds tends to slow, even a slight hand-shake would be a critical problem. However, LUMIX MEGA O.I.S. solves these problems enabling you to easily take clear, beautiful pictures with no deterioration of image quality even in such situations. In addition, the FZ7 allows shooting with max. ISO 1600 setting in the newly incorporated High Sensitivity mode, which suppresses blur caused by the movement of subjects such as baby and pets especially indoors by shooting with fast shutter speeds. Thus, the hand-shake and the movement of the subject, both the major causes of the blurred picture, are compensated with MEGA O.I.S. and High Sensitivity mode to help you to take clear and beautiful picture in various situations.

A couple of weeks ago I was introduced to this tiny digital camera, now there have been plenty tiny digital cameras in the past but none have been all that good. This one however has an unbelievable amount of features for such a small piece of equipment. more
