Very Happy

Bought the fz40 and sent back.....Couple bucks more and got a much better camera! What did that other customer mean about "Chip"? Bought a 2million dollar bag and the camera fits very snug....You can also stuff charger and extra battery...Very small..... I would NOT put my camera in checked in luggage...So this is perfecto..

Vacation Pics

I received this camera just in time to take on a vacation to Scotland and Ireland. I still have a lot to learn abour the camera but it was easy to use in the automatic mode. The zoom is a great feature and the picture quality is very good. The battery life allows you to take many pictures over a period of days without recharging.

Excellent Camera!!

I have just finally had the time to really use this camera and I am loving it! I have taken some very nice macros of a butterfly, some pictures of water falls, and even got some great pictures of the nearly full moon!!! A tripod is a must for this camera if you want to get some quality zoom pictures. Also, learning to use the manual settings will result in some excellent quality pictures!

It`s PERFECT

Excelent camera. Actually, it's not a camera, it's a MACHINE. Great pictures outdoor and indoor. Usually I take pictures from animals, can't ask them to stand still, so I set the camera on automatic ISO and "sports", didn't miss a good shot. Be happy to share some pictures. Took better pics than the photografers at Seaworld and San Diego Zoo, and they were using SLRs. And it's not difficult to use. The best! I was already pleased with my 2 previous Lumix cameras, the FZ20 and TZ4, but now, they look like toys, comparing to this one.

Very good video camera, much less photograph.


Very good video camera, much less photograph. Its main drawback is the lack of "sharpness". The photos appear smoothed.
Despite its name FZ100, this is not a worthy successor to the much awaited FZ50, and in photography it is below the FZ38, damage to the paper it 'was almost a dream ...

Traveler

I owned this camera for several weeks and used it extensively while photographing subjects during our short vacation trips. Upon returning home, I viewed both the still and video images on a 46 in. HD TV. The images were excellent. I am not concerned about comparing the quality of the images to other cameras, rather, I rate the overall experience of photography while using this camera, and my ability to capture the moment and communicate it to my audience. My purpose was to display the images as prints or as part of a slide-show for TV viewing. This camera fulfilled its purpose in its ability to easily deliver high-quality images. In all respects the camera was easy to use, and I used it mostly in manual mode, although, I handed it to my travel companions so I can get in the picture. The tilting screen is very useful for self-group shots because one can see the composition on screen, and move around if necessary. The camera is light, small, and I shot all day on the same battery, with power to spare. The image stabilization was very effective, even at the longest zoom setting. Video images are also excellent, in both 1080, and 720: images are sharp with excellent color. I am very pleased with this camera; it has all the features and controls to make photography fun, without having to carry extra photo gear, or weighing you down. It's a go anywhere camera, which I believe you will want to take with you, and make memories.

Ultra Zoom mid size Camera (DMC FZ100)

Bought this camera (Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ100)for trips where I might need a long zoom but not a large camera or bag to hold multiple lenses. I have been amazed at picture quality, speed of focus and overall usage. I am attempting to relearn photo techniques and like the ability to switch from automatic (which allows for much faster picture taking) to manual mode (learning the capabilities of the camera). I am very happy with this camera and recommend it to those wanting better pictures than a small compact without the weight, need for additional lenses and size of a larger DSLR.

I hate to disagree

My first few photos were disappointing but after sticking with it and studying the manual things came together and I'm getting great shots indoors and out.
Keep the ISO in auto mode and the ISO won't go above 400 and anything up to and including 400 look fine to me... Get past this on ISO and this and all of these types of cameras pictures start to deteriorate.
Set ISO auto, Do not use motion Deblur, and you get some great pictures. Burst speed is super fast. Panorama stitching actually works. HD video is out of this world. Now if I had the FZ35 I might not be as happy. You certainly aren't gaining much.
The pictures I've seen floating around the internet from the FZ100 look great.

fully satisfied

this is the first time i use a panasonic camera and i am quite pleased with the quality of the images. on the positive side; the cam is light weight, has user friendly interface, responds fast, amazing high definition imaging and fantastic zoom. the type of consulting work i do, most times require photography and although this is not classified as a professional cam, it acts like one. i think there is room for improvement in color management and macro shooting... but all in all, very good cam!

Image Quality Not As Expected

Great all around camera for beginners to intermediate users. IQ dissipates the further it is zoomed. I read a lot of reviews that said the same, but just wanted the camera to work and had to see for myself. It is true, bottom line, there are just too many pixels for that size sensor. If super zoom is not a factor then the camera is great, produces sharp clear pics up to about 2/3 of zoom capability, then the graininess begins, which defeats the purpose of what the camera is supposed to be about. Not as Panasonic advertised.
Amazon was great to deal with. I paid a small amount for 1 day shipping and it was delivered next day. The return process was just as easy. Customer service emailed a link to print a free return label, shipped the camera back and money was refunded in about a week.

You Play the Game to Win and Buy a Camera for Great Photos

This Camera has alot of features but it does not matter if the pictures suck. On top of that it is fast but the pictures suck. On top of that the Flash is weak. So long story short it is a return. Just buy a DSLR and live with the cost and lenses and have some great pictures.

where's the chip on the market?

no chip came with camera. the chip advertised on panasonic web site cost $600, $100 more than the camera itself! technology of camera is ahead of available large chips. costco doesn't have proper chips. amazon doesn't have the large ($600.) chip. chip prices have to come WAY down in order for this camera to make fiscal sense. the older version of this camera makes way more sense as the media is reasonably priced.

It's a no brainer! Look no further.

I only have time for a short review but rest assured this is a GREAT camera! I have had a number of SLR's film and digital as well as compact point and shoot's. I have taken thousand of photos over the years and am fairly proficient. That said, on full auto it take GREAT shots, period. I also use the program mode to increase the ISO for indoor shots and have been playing with the advanced modes but the bottom line is 99% of you will use it on full auto. The things I was looking for was a real dedicated batterys (not AA's), a wide angle, and a high zoom. I also wanted a cabable video camera with HD. Read all the reviews, did the research. This was the best comprimise for me! I would take MOST of the reviews with any negative with a large grain of salt, sure nothing is perfect but the average user will NEVER see any differences. Easy to use, can hand it to anyone and they can figure it out, easy to hold,not too big, sturdy, good batt life. BTW, I shot well over 2hrs of video in low light with GREAT results.

Love it so far

The FZ100 is my first "nice" digital camera, after years of toting around a tiny Nikon Coolpix. I did a lot of research before settling on the FZ100 and I have been thrilled with it so far. The Leica lens and hood are a real plus at this price point, and the design is sturdy, resembling a much higher-priced DSLR. I would highly recommend this camera to the casual photography enthusiast, which I am.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ100

I purchased this camera for the flip out screen, raw format, 1080i video, hotshoe, and it supports an external microphone/wireless mic. Prior to getting this camera I was using a Panasonic HDC-SD5PP for HD video and Olympus 590UZ for stills. Now I can do it all with one camera. I was considering the Canon EOS 60D but decided the better picture quality just wasn't worth additional $$$$ and crap (lens and ect) to haul around. I'm able to edit the Panasonic RAW photos in photoshop with excellent results. The only thing I miss in the Panasonic is the time lapse function which the Olympus has.
I love this digital age. Used to have a couple of Nikon F2's and darkroom. It's so much simpler now.

Powerful camera

I've had the camera for four days -- not nearly long enough for a thorough evaluation, but I have found it to be extremely capable so far.

Image quality in most cases is very good to excellent. It's not going to be great in low light ... from my experience you need a DSLR for that, and even they can struggle. The zoom is quick and smooth to operate. IQ at 24X is very good, to my eye, and I have been shooting for 30 years. The autofocus is by far the best I've seen on a non-Dslr. Video is excellent. The burst capabilities at 14 MP are remarkable.

This camera's capabilities can create the tendency to compare its photos to a Dslr. That's not a fair comparison, obviously, but if you assess it on the basis of a small-sensor camera, it's very impressive. And of course, light and easy to carry, unlike a Dslr and accompanying lenses.

I do think $500 is a lot...I would recommend waiting until the price inevitably falls if you can. Of course, you'll miss some shots if you do that...

(P.S., after another six days of use, still greatly enjoying this amazingly versatile camera. I notice that some users have a small but growing collection of FZ100 shots on Flickr.)

Great "Carry-Around" while hiking & visiting

The Leica Lens does wonders for pictures and clarity - makes for an almost professional picture without too much effort. The included manual on CD will give someone a great opportunity to write a decent clear logical owners manual (the ONLY reason this did NOT get 5 stars). On my nature hikes, I've set the camera to ISO 200 (sunny day) or 400 and have not had any disappointing shots. Even ISO 800 shots were as good as my Nikon D90 using the same exposures. The auto-focus works on any moving thing & captures the shot at 1/500-1/1000 so there are no fuzzies on the target. Even the packaging was good & secure with real on-time delivery. My wife loves the size & carry-weight. By a big class 10 SDHC card for this camera as burst-mode can be slow on a class 2 or 4 (this is normal, not a negative). One of the best buys I've made in a long time without ANY remorse or regrets.
