Panasonic Lumix ZS10

I use this camera with the Panasonic Underwarer Housing. I have been diving with a Lumix for a little more than 4 years. I absolutely love the quality of the photo's this camera takes. You can't beat it for a non-DSLR camera.

Great Camera.

the only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating was the lack of view finder. Otherwise it is perfect

Great camera at a very competitive price

Would be nice to have a view finder but not essential. Somewhat complicated to use, but again, not a real problem.

Lots of camera for your money

This is a good camera to carry around when you don't want to lug an SLR. It's quick, relatively intuitive, and the zoom range is quite handy. I have to say I'm not very impressed by the sensor. When you look at the photos it produces in detail, they have lots of digital artifacts, kind of like some cheesy "impressionist painting" effect you might find in a photo editing program. Granted, this is when you're zoomed way in, but my 6 mp Canon 10D ultimately has better resolution. This is a consumer camera so I'm not really dissing it. It's a great travel/snapshot device. And the video is pretty darn good too.

Great camera, great price!

I got this camera for its size and zoom. I bought a big SLR camera for the zoom, but found it cumbersome to carry around. The Lumix is compact, but has a great zoom. I just recently got it and have taken a few pictures and videos. Very easy to use. I mainly take pictures and videos of my family, especially my kids school and sporting events. So far, so good! My father also got this camera and loves it!

Exceptional value

Bought this to replace similar camera that was stolen! Although same model, this one seems to have a few extra features. I bought it because of the 16X zoom along with it's compact size. No regrets. By the way, Adorama was lowest internet business to buy from (by far) and delivery was very quick.

Great camera

Upgraded from the DMC-ZS7, which I had been using the last two years. Really enjoyed using both camera, especially the high optical zoom for a point and shoot.

what it does give is a very nice panaoramic 2d photo, which is a bonus...

I ride motorcycles and especially like GPS feature at this price point it is more camera than others with the GPS. The camera takes great pictures and except for the fact the touch screen seems to have been an afterthought overall the camera is a very strong camera to have in your point and shoot arsenal. I also liked the 3d picture mode while not able to test its capability on a 3d tv because I do not own one, what it does give is a very nice panaoramic 2d photo, which is a bonus...

Great camera

I love this camera. I had a larger Panasonic Lumix camera and used it for over 10 years. It was great and this camera seems to be the same so far but it has the HD vido which is the best.

Great features

Excellent price on this just-discontinued model. Love the 14x optical zoom, much better than my Canon 4x zoom. Like the ability to have more control over shutter speed and other features, similar to my DSLR. A friend bought this camera a year ago and I've been wanting to get it. The price of [$] was excellent! Found this on [@]. Did not rate low light photography high, simply since I have not yet used it under these conditions.

Overall Good Camera But GPS Is A Problem

Overall the camera is good. It has a great zoom and photo quality is very good. Flash seemed adequate too and the photos we took were all very good when we used it on vacation. We returned it, however, because for the price the GPS feature was of interest. It was slow to react & sometimes didn't leaving us missing photo opportunities which is unacceptable for a vacation camera. If you don't care about the GPS feature than buy the model without it and save money. We ended up with a Sony DSC- HX9 and are happy with it.

A Magnificent Piece of Equipment

This camera really packs a punch. It is small, light, precision made, with an excellent lens that zooms from wide angle to super telephoto. I can get better quality only with my Nikon D5000 SLR, but I'm not in the habit of carrying that one around all the time. Example: A hawk perched on my deck railing. In a moment I had the Pananasonic making clear video at full 16x zoom through the deck door glass. The result was good partly because of rapid focus and partly because of the good anti-shake mechanism. This is the perfect camera for travel and general use. Small enough to carry in a shirt pocket or purse, it has good battery life and feels and performs like the precision instrument it is.
