 Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 March 18, 2010
Mohammad H. Farooqi
Its a brilliant camera primarily because of the fact that its excellent value for money !
There is no other camera (within this price range) giving you such amazing features and pictures. I previously owned a panasonic lumix 6.1 MP wide angle camera and was really satisfied with it. The reasons for switching to this one was to upgrade to 10.1 MP as well as to get extended zoom (previous one had only 3x) and last but not the least was to be able to record high quality video recording. The ZS3 delivers all of the promised features and i am really satisfied with its results specially the 12x zoom and the high quality video recording. No other compact camera delivers so much within its price !
P.S: Make sure you get this with atleast 12 or 16gb memory card to be able to enjoy hours of great quality video recording and countless still pictures
Thrilled! March 17, 2010

All the different point and shoot models on the market gave us analysis paralysis. However, after much research, we're thrilled we chose to go with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZX3. The picture quality is sharp and clear (much better than the Sony we had, which, by the way, malfunctioned during our honeymoon); the 12X zoom is a plus; there are plenty of picture settings/options (some are a little hokey); and it's well constructed. The only downside is that it's bulkier than our previous cameras.
 AWESOME CAMERA,But...with a great pitfall March 17, 2010

For decades I've been trying different Cameras, and Digital ones I have had a few. Non of them has failed, but once in the lifetime you have to find the one that breaks the rule. This particular and extraordinary Linux ZS3 Camera, after 8 days of normal use, with an special bag with foam interior, surprised me with a screen full of coloured lines and half of the screen black.
I live in Chile, and the options given by AMAZON, were to refund my money, due to the fact that I had bought it from the "Warehouse", despite is in the same Web page as AMAZON, and I paid to AMAZON. The technicians told me here that the Screen was broken.Fix it costed me U$ 200 plus 6 weeks waiting for the new screen.
Anyway, the few pictures and videos I was able to take before the "accident", were superb.
I own as well a NIKON COOLPIX for 5 years, and has nor a single or tiny scratch in its screen; the same with a fabulous FINEPIX 8000, both with many trips and miles plus many many pics taken during years.
I believe from what I've read in Internet, that this is a very common problen in PANASONIC LUMIX, and they should treat as TOYOTA and GM have done with their defective products. I wish, someone from that company and from AMAZON could get in touch with me and replace the product. ( And I did buy 2 of them, one for me and one for my daughter).
I wish you luck, with your screens, and buy an extended plus international guarrantee.
 Love some things... Others... not so much! March 16, 2010

This camera is loaded with features and the it does do alot of what it claims. It does zoom really well. However, the more you zoom, the worse the quality of the picture. Still something worth having in many situations. I took a shot of my husband down by a swimming pool from my eighth floor condo balcony on vacation. I was surprised that I could get as much of a shot as I did.
My biggest disappointment was when we went out on a whale watch in the bay. It was daylight, overcast and I couldn't see ANYTHING on my screen. Every shot was a gamble because I had no idea what i was going to get a picture of. It was sooooo frustrating. I know all LCD screens have this problem to some extent, but this was ridiculous!
So, for indoor shots or shots from a shaded area, you're in business, otherwise, outside in the outdoor light it's a crapshoot!!
Very good camera. March 16, 2010

This is a very good camera with a honest price. I am fully satisfied with my purchase. I was looking for a portable camera with good lens and a biggest zoom,it is perfect under my criteria.I fully recommend it.
