📷 Silver Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ5S 5MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Zoom and Image Stabilization for Enhanced Results Review

This camera is without a doubt the fastest camera we have ever used. it takes very clear pictures. The downside is that it's bulky and 5MP is already outdated.

So far I'm very happy with the performance of the Panasonic Lumix. It takes very clear pictures and loads easily. There are many settings I haven't tried yet but am working on.

This camera is great! I like that it's compact yet feels like a camera with a big lens. It fits perfectly in my purse and the picture quality is really good. I don't know much about photography or cameras so this is an easy to use camera for me. .

I had an FZ20 but unfortunately it was stolen from my luggage. I decided I couldn't afford the same thing again and bought a replacement locally. In fact, I even bought another camera, brought it home and hated it. I went back to Panasonic and saw the FZ5. When I got it and played with it, I really liked it.

I was shaking from the wind, but thanks to stabilization, the picture was as clear as possible. Ann, I say the DMC-F5Z may…

I wanted an animal safari camera. I'm a beginner photographer so I was looking for a light camera, simple, very easy to use and with an excellent zoom. I wasn't ready to switch to a DSLR just yet and this Panasonic seemed like a great compromise; I bought it based on other reviews. The camera far exceeded my expectations. It is very easy to use and the photo quality is excellent. I was able to get incredible close-up shots (the camera has 12x optical zoom plus digital zoom so you can take…

My first impression of the FZ5 was that it was smaller and certainly a lot lighter than I expected. It's certainly not a pocket camera, but it's compact enough and so light that you could theoretically slip it into a large trouser or coat pocket. That's why I choose the FZ5 over the FZ20, but at this point I'm not sure if I appreciate the FZ5's top-notch portability or want a camera to hold on to. I'm getting used to it, but I need a thicker, longer grip so I can wrap my fingers better and have
