Digital camera reviews of Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ7K 7.2MP Digital Camera with 6x Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)
Digital camera Review: I'm hooked!
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had my DMC-LZ7 for about 8 months now and have taken about 700 photos so far. I can say the picture quality is excellent, as about as crisp as its going to get for a point and shoot camera. I've taken several portrait photos and the detail is amazing. I could see a single strand of hair laying against the face of my subject! Macro works like a charm, I took a photo of a caterpillar and could see all the tiny hairs on his body perfectly. I had a Canon A550 that couldn't capture half the detail and color that this Panasonic does. Needless to say I'm a Panasonic convert. I like the layout of the buttons and the screen is bright and clear when reviewing photos. Some people may complain about the absence of a viewfinder, but for me its not a big deal. I prefer to look to the screen to see just where everything lines up at. My only complaint is the size, I prefer a slimmer body but like somebody else said, the slimmer the camera is the more quality you sacrifice, generally. I'm not sure how true that will be one year from now though! I highly recommend this camera even if the price was more than what it is currently.Digital camera Review: Panasonic Lumix Digital Camera

Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this camera since January
It has worked perfectly, macro pics look amazing, i have taken really nice pics with this camera. Video length is as much as your memory card can take not 30 secs like other cameras). It has nice features and the zoom is really good and useful, which was something i was looking for.
I doesn't have a manual option (to change the settings at your will), but is still a very good point and shot cam.
Digital camera Review: Camera Case
Summary: 4 Stars
Very nice camera case but I had to return it. My Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ7S 7.2 MP Digital camera didn't fit in it.Digital camera Review: Great Price, Good Camera
Summary: 4 Stars
At first I was a bit concerned about the first few pictures that I took because they were grainy. Fortunately, the issue was user error. Initially it was a problem with the zoom. Then I read the Owner's Manual and learned about ISO settings, flash settings, aspect ratios, etc., I figured out that I was camera challenged. By about the 10th picture, I figured out what I was doing wrong and discovered this is really a great little camera.
The pros of this camera is that it has settings for nearly everything that you can think of and that you can become camera knowledgeable.
The cons are that I really did not find this camera to be point and shoot and the menu is slightly more complex that my Kodak digital. I found that when I tried the point and shoot, the picture quality was not as good. Using the scene settings and adjusting them gave me an incredible picture. I work at the top of a hill and have a beautiful panoramic view down below. I took a picture at the highest zoom and the picture is absolutely gorgeous! I am literally talking a view for miles. I could not believe the amount of detail this camera picked up.
Fortunately, I am good with electronics and figured out the menu fairly quickly. However, this could be a rather complicated menu for those that lack experience with digital cameras.
I gave the item an overall rating of a 4 because I feel that Panasonic could have made the point and shoot feature better. I think this is a great camera for the price.
