Good Points

Leica lens delivers crisp images with very little barrel distortion or corner fading. The zoom range from wide angle scenery to telephoto bird in a tree is astonishing and is great for everyone except maybe specialist wild life photographers. Excellent colour rendition especially skin tones. The f2.8 i aperture s better than most dslr zoom lens that cost over twice as much and with the image stabilisation, you can almost never need the flash.


Bad Points

Noise ( colour speckling ) on indoor shots and above 400 as a is noticeable but can be removed on a computer. There is also shutter lag unless you pre focus.


General Comments

I have used the Panasonic DMC-FZ7 camera for almost two years and it has never let me down , friends and family love the photos it produces. You can use it as a simple point and shoot and be sure of getting a good photo or advanced users can be creative with shutter or aperture priority or even full manual control. If I part with the fz7 it will only be to buy a fz18 for an even longer zoom.
You can't go wrong with this camera
