Camera Panasonic Lumix FH6 14.1 MP Deals & Reviews

J. Sheldon Cooper "Conspicuous Consumer" (Pennsylvania): I must have a dozen digital cameras, from Nikon dSLRs costing thousands, and Point and Shoots from Sony, Leica, Nikon and Panasonic.
The Lumix line was initially almost identical to Leica. Panasonic made the bodies, and Leitz provided the optics. Although you may not find a red dot on a similar camera, the lens is still provided by Leica. Professional photographers have always revered their Leica lenses as the zenith in optical quality.
So to get fine optical quality in a $70 package is almost unheard of. There are several models in the Lumix line, all withj differing sizes and features. The FH6 is a top functioning camera in a small, slim package. Small enough to fit in a shirt pocket without a bulge.

Taylor Marsh "DESOLATER IV" (Dallas, TX USA) : Clear pictures, easy to use. Impressed by ability to zoom in on pictures.
Took a picture of the car window while driving in the dark in the rain--thought I was going to get a reflection of the flash--instead got a picture of the rain moving across the window--WOW!
It is a good camera for the price. It is light weight, takes nice photos etc However, it does not zoom in when recording movies and that is a real down side for me. Aside from that I am happy enough with it.

MJO "MJO" (USA): We have kids and the previous camera that we had always had blury pictures due to the shutter lag. I know this is an issue with all point & shoot cameras, but I can't bring myself to spend the $ on an SLR. When the flash isn't needed this camera feels almost instant with no shutter lag. Plus it has good image stabilization. When the flash is needed the speed is slower and the image quality could be improved. Overall this was a great value for the $.

J. C Lee (San Diego, CA USA): I researched all of the point and shoot cameras and I found that the Panasonic Lumix FH6 is the best overall camera for the price and features. I read that picture quality goes downhill with more magnification so a 5X optical zoom is more than adequate.
Let's face it, Panasonic has the best auto focus point-and-shoot cameras in the world. This cameria is highly rated in the new edition of Consumer Reports Magazine which covers the best products available in 2012.
Sure, this camera doesn't have all the bells and whistles but it does take 280 photos on a single battery charge.
Ok, this camera is made in China but it still is very durable and inexpensive.
All in all, a BEST BUY!!!
