Lumix 8.1-Megapixel Compact Digital Camera with 32mm Wide-Angle Lens 5x Optical Zoom Intelligent Auto Mode and 2.5" Diagonal Intelligent LCD Silver User Reviews Easy to Use   Im a photography novice and wanting a quality camera that was light easy to tote, comfortable in my hand contoured slightly, easy-to-use uncomplicated and reasonably priced under #200. If you e like me, this may be the perfect camera for you. It is for me! Just got our first round of photos back....nice quality. Highly recommend it :2012-02-11 10:36:50 Very pleased with camera - Warning on the special   I think the camera is great, On full auto mode it takes great shots but it also allows manual control of aperture and shutter most compacts in this price range don do this. I turned off the flash and took some low light shots with long exposure that look great. It does have a fast focus setting which I set the first time I set up the camera and it does not seem slow to me in normal mode, the flash mode does take 3 or 4 seconds to recharge. Even the movie mode is surprisingly good, it outputs to MOV format which is Apples Quicktime works on PCs too. I found a free converter called MediaCoder, that converts to AVI, WMA, MPEG and other formats. I used this to make the movie compatible with a digital picture frame, works nicely. I highly recommend the camera, and other gear I bought below but notice my warning about the shipping charge from EEK. I ordered two of everything below, one set each for me and my daughter. LZ8 cameras, I took the special deal the camera with a 4GB & 8GB card. The 4 and 8 GB cards come from EEK Technology. Four packs of eneloops AAs with charger nice charger Transcend 16GB SDHC CARD SD 2.0 SPD CLASS 6 with Compact Card Reader, comes from Cameta Camera I ordered all with standard ground shipping. The cameras and the batteries largest items shipped from Amazon for $8.53, I got em in 3 days. The 16gb cards and card readers shipped from Cameta Camera for 12.48, took four or five days. The 4 and 8 GB cards that come from EEK Technology cost 18.96 remember this is two 4s and two 8s so a great price on the special But they make up for it on the shipping, for this 18.96 order it cost me $23.90 for shipping and handing. Order was placed 11/30 still have not seen them. For anyone not familiar with eneloop batteries, they are rechargeable NI-MH but have the advantage of a very slow discharge rate - They claim if you charge them and they sit for a year they should retain 85% of their charge. - What it means to me...if they sit for a month or two after charging they should still be good as opposed to regular NI-MHs which I would want to re-charge. As a 54 year old man that has kept up on computers and other tech related items I must confess I am amazed at what $100 will buy these days when it comes to these new little cameras..amazing stuff. :2012-02-11 10:36:38 Super camera for the price   This Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ 8 does exactly what I want it to, and a whole lot of other things I have not yet figured out. I have a backround in film cameras, and use a company digital SLR for work. For my own vacation purposes, I wanted a compact pocket-size digital that takes decent pix without costing too much anything this small stands a good chance of getting lost somewhere along the way. My last two pocket digitals were a 2-meg Olympus Stylus OK but bulky and a low-end Olympus FE-210 poor lens quality. The Panasonic offers a Leica lens that used to mean something; guess it still does which takes very good photos. It has a wide range of shooting modes, so many you want to take the big instruction book with you. But if you just set it on full auto, itll get you by until you become more familiar with it. The features it offers in a camera at this sub-$200 price really are remarkable. It takes movies with sound acceptable. All cameras are going big and bigger in terms of image-size, but heres a hint - the average family photographer simply does not need a 10- or 20-meg image. Something like this is just fine. :2012-02-11 10:36:20 Fantastic Camera   Upon comparing many brand name digital cameras, I decided to purchase the 8MP Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ8S. I have been searching for a few months and many reviews for other brand names just did not compare to the reviews for this camera. I was a previous HP digital camera user and decided to take a chance on a Panasonic since I also have a Panasonic camcorder and have been quite happy. I am glad to say that I am very happy with this camera, as well. It has a larger display than I expected. After taking several pictures, the quality is truly fantastic! It has the usual bells and whistles in relation to other cameraa in this price range and more. It is a great size and easy to use. The one thing that I have also enjoyed is the quick picture taking. It has no delay whatsoever compared to the 6MP HP digital camera I have. The other good thing is that you can change the scenery option quickly prior to taking the appropriate picture. The picture mode is also available through the menu option but the separate turnstyle button is a great feature. The HP I have you need to enter through the menu and change it from there which makes no sense. The Lumix has has more professional type options that I will become more familiar with over time. Its design is sleek, visually appealing, user friendly and offers many features that I am looking forward to using in the near future :2012-02-11 10:36:08 A great camera   I had bought a Canon SD750 and while it gave great outdoor shots I gave it back because the indoor shots were grainy or blurry unless one used flash. I hate to use flash most of the time as it usually gives a glaring effect not to mention surprising the subject and want to capture pictures in natural light as much as possible. I also tried the Nikon Coolpix $200 and got the same result, though marginally better than the Canon. Finally settled on the Lumix which gives fabulous indoor shoots in natural light while also doing great on outdoor shots. All the other features incl manual control were a great bonus as they usually come in higher end cameras/SLRs. Also, the histogram and other settings are visible in playback mode also which most the other cameras didn have. IMHO, this camera is the best buy in point and shoot, period :2012-02-11 10:35:57 great camera for the price   panasonic nailed this one. Great for armatures and those who want to get into advance settings. The auto mode covers all the basics and deliverers good shots in all situations. There are enough manual setting to satisfy most. I like the mode dial rather then going Thur a menu & also a separate battery slot. Also takes very nice videos. LCD screen is bright and easy to see outside. Feature rich at a good price. :2012-02-11 10:35:46 Great camera anyone can use   I bought this camera for a 9 day trip to Costa Rica after analyzing all of the possibilities. I was drawn to Panasonic because I bought my daughter a similar camera a few years ago that takes great pictures of my black pets, which is sometimes very tricky. That camera was no longer available, so I had to research the newer ones. I chose this camera for its size, zoom I settled for 5x since I didn want to spend a lot on another camera and use of AA batteries, which would be easy to find in Costa Rica if the need aroze. The instructions are easy to understand!!!!! You need to read through them, just the basic part, then look up anything else you are interested in as you go along. I didn get lots of practice before the trip, but have FANTASTIC photos! I took 1,042! I even got good at having the camera ready, and timing when wed pass something on the road and getting it centered!!! The 5x zoom with the extra boost to 8x did a great job! I was used to a 10x zoom with my older, large camera which I didn want to fuss with on this trip. My travel companions thought I spent a fortune on such a little camera that could do so much! I took movies or bull riding, a close up of a rattle snake, gorgeous sunset photos, and on and on! I could not be happier and I think anyone could easily use this camera and take professional looking photos. The part you need to know which is hard to find out without digging, is that you need NiMH batteries. I only had to recharge them twice for the almost 4GB of photos I took! Keep a charged set in your camera case, and youll never miss a shot. Well, I did miss a great shot when my daughter locked us out of our room in the rainforest and on the way I ran into an armadillo on the sidewalk - WITHOUT MY CAMERA!!!!!! We had a great encounter though. He snorted at me and ran away. I am very happy that I chose this camera for my trip of a lifetime in the rainforest, climbing up volcanoes, hiking to hot springs, and riding through the mangroves. My photos are my treasured memories, thanks to this camera. :2012-02-11 10:35:35 Panasonic LZ8 - Excellent Camera   I bought the LZ8 for $162 from Amazon, but u can get it now for $152 from Amazon. I can say without reservation: THIS IS A GREAT CAMERA! Ive read 1000s of reviews on digicams on the net, I finally settled on the LZ8 because it had full auto, manual aperture & shutter, a great 2.5 screen, nice video capabilities and was under $[...]. Many websites complain about digicams low light capabilities, given my experience with this camera using its manual controls and a tripod, frankly I got excellent results. If want to see this cameras capability, then goto: steves-digicams, and under Photo Contest look at my entry for 20 May 2008. Take it from a user with who can make up his mind without fear of upsetting sponsors etc. There is no problem with start up speed, if there is any lag when taking flash photos, the question is what do u expect? This is an 8M camera using AA batteries. If u want a fast 8M camera using LiOn batteries that might take faster flash photos then spend $[...] or more and just u might just get that, or buy a DSLR. The bottomline is: if u want Porsche performance then buy a Porsche. The LZ8 is a honest to excellent $150 camera that will produce great photos and has options that can be only found in more expensive cameras. Read the manual, don be afraid to experiment, trawl the net for tips on how to take photos and u will have fun with this camera. :2012-02-11 10:35:21 Excellent value for the specs   Ive only owned one other digital camera, a Canon a60. Although it was only 2mp it took some great photos still does even after 7,000 shots. However, I wanted a new one and did research for about 3 months before deciding which one to buy. I was looking for a pocketable camera that preferably ran off AAs instead of a proprietary li-ion, and could use a SDHC card. I was also looking for a camera that had a nice wide-angle lens and took true widescreen 16:9 photos - which really narrowed it down. I really liked the TZ5 w/ the 720p video, but the twice-as-much price and extra heft and battery steered me towards this little guy. Here are my pros and cons: Pros: - 5x optical at full resolution, 8x at 2mp which still takes decent pics, just not as good as my canon at 2mp. Theres also an easy-zoom button that auto zooms to 5x then 8x with just one press each time. The third press will put back to the wide-angle. - size very pocketable - much better than my a60 which was pocketed itself for the longest time - lightweight - Runs off 2 aas - in fact... I swear Ive taken over 800 shots on my new set of Sony Ni-MHs 2600 or 2700 mah, but Ill just have to test that out again in case I did switch them at some point. - Venus IV engine vs the older Venus III for better images - Optical image stabilizer - boot-up time from off to shot taken - looks and price both subjective - great video including the ability to do it in 16:9 - As mentioned above - ability to take true 16:9 images all the way up to 7mp I believe - full manual control, minus focus something even the TZ5 doesn have! - Easy to use with intelligent auto function that will select the scene mode for you which has worked really well so far - 32mm wide angle lens to capture more. Works great for group photos or 16:9 outdoors shots. - Leica lens although thats like saying your speakers or receiver is THX certified - its all subjective. Cons: - Slow shot-to-shot when using the flash - photos don have the canon color subjective - they just seem a bit dull. - blurry shots in low-light condition more so than my canon a60, but better than my folks SD400. - More noise than Id like. It makes the 8mp necessary if youll be cropping any of them. All in all I still think this is the best camera you can buy if you e looking for the same specs I was. Ive recommended it to family and friends and even my girlfriend wants one and she is very careful with big purchases. One way to tell you got a good deal is that the price actually goes UP 2 months after you bought it especially if its anything to do with technology. Im actually surprised its priced so low with its bigger brother the LZ10 priced a lot more for just a few more bells and whistles. If the big optical zoom, wide-angle or 16:9 capabilities aren necessary than compare image quality to canons before buying this. Everyones opinion on a good picture is different, judge for yourself. Otherwise, youll be happy with this purchase just like I am! :2012-02-11 10:35:10 Excellent "budget" camera with great features   Ive been wanting something like the Canon PowerShot A series camera for a while. Another hobby of mine involves photographing small objects in a mini-studio settings not unlike jewel photography, but less demanding/sophisticated. I wanted something that: - has aperture/shutter priority modes, and manual mode; - can set custom white balance - shows live histogram in recording mode. The Canon PowerShot A720IS and A570IS looked great, but neither had all three features I wanted. A query here on a photography forum last month led to a reply that pointed me to the then-just-announced Panasonic DMC-LZ8. On paper, it looked GREAT: All the features I wanted, 2.5 LCD with 230K pixels the Canon ones, while having large screens, have low pixel counts, and priced well under $200 to boot. It seemed so perfect that I preordered it, which I normally don do--I usually prefer the manufacturers to go through a few production batches and iron out all the bugs before buying a camera. The camera came today from Amazon.com, and I had a chance to take a few quick shots and get an initial feel for the camera. Here are my observation and thoughts. I also have the DMC-FX33, so a bit of the review will be comparing the two. Not that they are in the same category, but the FX33 represents last years Panasonic design trends and philosophies, and LZ8 this years, so I thought itd be interesting to note the contrasts. The camera feels GREAT in my hand. Im 6 tall and have I guess about average hand-size for my height, and the protruding grip felt very comfortable. The thumb naturally rests right above the Record/Review switch, which provides a nice counter-pressure point to the grip. The LZ8 uses two AA sized batteries and SD/SDHC cards. The battery compartment and memory compartments are separate, which I like a lot. The left side of the camera has a door that hides the USB/AV-out port. Theres now a dedicated button near the shutter for Panasonics Extended Optical Zoom, which allows you to zoom in further than the 5x optical lens zoom without the traditional degradation in image quality associated with digital zoom. The flipside is that as you zoom out using Extended Optical Zoom, the image size becomes smaller at the maximum Extended Optical Zoom, the camera produces 3MP images. Unlike the FX33, the LZ8 does not have a Clipboard mode at least not that I could find!. I actually really liked that! It was an easy way to carry some photos with me and use the camera as a digital photo album. Not that you can do that with storing photos on the regular memory card, but the Clipboard mode made it easier. Oh well. Unlike the FX33, the down button on the four-way controller no longer acts as a quick review button while in recording mode. But, also unlike the FX33, you can enter the full Review Playback mode by using a dedicated switch, rather than having to turn the mode dial to Playback mode. The Exposure button controls the aperture or shutter or both values, in aperture/shutter priority modes and the manual mode. The Q. Menu button seems faster more responsive to bring up the quick menu than the FX33. The screen menus have changed little other than the background color. The LZ8 has the same size LCD as the FX33 2.5, but 30K more pixels 230K vs. 200K. The menu does certainly seem sharper. A pure eye-candy: When you shut down the camera, now theres a reflection of the word Lumix on the screen. A gripe I have with the FX33 was how narrow the viewing angle was for the LCD. Im happy to report that the LZ8 is significantly better in this regard. The images straight out of the camera look great. I know its a subjective matter, so be sure to check out various review sites and also photo hosting sites that let you view pictures by the camera model to see if you like the image quality. Ive also uploaded some 20 images to accompany this review. So far Im extremely happy with how the camera feels in my hand, how responsive it is, and how feature-packed it is. I haven really tested high ISO performance, as that will not matter in the applications I have for the camera mini-studio. Im sure pixel-peeping the images to death will reveal all manners of shortcomings and imperfections, but for real-world usage, it rates very favorably against the PowerShot series. Well done Panasonic! :2012-02-11 10:34:56   Read more Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ8S 8.1MP Digital Camera with 5x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver) information and user reviews Add Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ8S 8.1MP Digital Camera with 5x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver) comment click here.
