Digital camera reviews of Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ7S 7.2MP Digital Camera with 6x Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver)
Digital camera Review: LOVE this camera!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Spur of the moment purchase turned out to be best purchase! I never buy ANY electronics without doing major research (reading all these reviews on Amazon) and cross checking prices. However, in May of 2007, my Pentax Optio died 5 days before I was leaving for Hawaii. I needed a new camera asap. I had a $200 budget and I wanted the camera to have a minimum of 5x optical zoom. This was the ONLY camera that met those requirements (at my local Best Buy). I was very leary of buying a panasonic product (personal past history was NOT good), but I was in a bind so I bought it...best gamble I've ever taken.
I read the manual that night while waiting for a concert to begin...I especially love the greats pics I took at that concert. I have several friends who have since bought Panasonic lumix cameras based on my pics. My Hawaii pics were also fantastic and a great opportunity to explore the many "scene" options on this camera.
I highly recommend this camera. It is very simple to use (my mother now has the same one and she loves it too) and it takes AA batteries which is a HUGE plus. It will take (good quality) videos for as long as you have memory available. My one complaint would be that when you play back the "movies" on the camera it does NOT have sound...it records sound, but does NOT play it back...no speaker.
I have just ordered the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 (same budget,same requirements) and it should get here tomorrow...just in time for another concert...I'll let you know how much I love the new one in a couple of months.
Digital camera Review: Good Pictures and easy to use
Summary: 4 Stars
I have had my Panasonic LZ7 for about 2 weeks now I am quite happy with it. The low(7.2) mega pixels does not really bother me too much as I will not be printing extra large pictures. The quality of the photos are really good. What im really impressed with is the 6X optical zoom, (most small cameras average around 3X-5X zoom) you can really get nice close ups of animals and other things that you can't normally get close to, and there is no picture noise even with full zoom at 6X. The camera is bigger than the average point and shoots, but with the large lens and the 2AA batteries it takes, this is to be expected. Battery life is decent, I use re-chargeables though. All in all, good value, for the money..Digital camera Review: Very nice camera

Takes great pictures. In automatic mode it picks up subjects in motion well. Nice clear photos.Digital camera Review: Camera
Summary: 4 Stars
Great camera. I broke one like it and repurchased the same model. The only drawback is the memory chip cannot be formatted to go directly into the computer. Photos are transferred by the cable only.Digital camera Review: Lumix DMC-LZ7S
