The DMC-FZ7 features a lens with a remarkable 12x optical zoom, equivalent to a 36 to 432mm lens on a 35mm film camera. 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 16.5x1. The DMC-FZ7 features a large, 2.5" diagonal LCD and the Power LCD function. The pixel-mixed readout method performed by the CCD increases the brightness level of the live image on the LCD, which greatly facilitates shooting in low lighting. Simply touch the Power LCD button and the display becomes about 40% brighter for easier viewing on sunny days. Less

Panasonic Lumix? DMC-FZ7 6-Megapixel Mega-Zoom Digital Camera with Image Stabilization

bydkozin Mar 21, 2006

Cons No super-wide angle, no RAW
Recommended it? Yes

I have sold my 5-Megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ5 a while ago in favor of a smaller camera, but wanted to see if the new 6-Megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 is a remarkably different camera. I liked the FZ5's features, menu system and overall performance and liked the FZ5 better than the Canon S2... Read full review »

Panasonic DMC-FZ7, a lot of camera at a reasonable price

Cons limited close-focusing and macro, minor fringing and color aberration

Here's the bottom line up front: I like this camera very much.

In this review, you will find numerous references to the Panasonic FZ20. My last digicam was the Pana FZ20, probably overall the best and most useful camera I ever owned. I sold the FZ20 a few months back, assuming that... Read full review »

Pros Image quality, light weight, video quality, battery life
Cons none really
Recommended it? Yes

We bought the 600D because we wanted to add video capability to our Canon equipment. Having been a long time Canon user I already had a substantial investment in Canon mount lens and other equipment. Was initially dubious about the lack of compact flash storage and the wierd odd shped battery, but... Read full review »

bytheheidis Mar 20, 2011
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Articulating LCD, Sharp photos, 1080 video with 3-10x zoom, creative filters
Cons price, need to get an expensive memory card to take 1080 video
Recommended it? Yes

You can read the specs elsewhere, this will be my experience and opinion of the Canon T3i. 

Photo quality: As a new DSLR user, this camera is easy to use and produces amazing, clear, sharp photos. Of course I have never used a high end DSLR, but in comparison to any point and... Read full review »
