I have a full review on my website: http://technewsmadesimple.com/2009/01/16/panasonic-lumix-dmc-fx150-review/ from Amazon.com Recently, I wanted to upgrade my 8 megapixel point-&-shoot, a Sony Cybershot which I loved (it had a large touch screen and was very compact, especially amazing since it originally came out in 2005). But as the PhotoGuru, I needed to keep my street cred, so I began the search. When I saw Panasonic's Lumix DMC-FX150, 14.7 megapixel compact camera about the same size of my Sony (possibly a tiny bit smaller at 2.12'' x 3.8'' x .98'') my mind said "dope!" and my late 90s lingo said "no you di-ent!". It's almost the size of a business card, just under an inch thick (non-chunky-style), and weighing in just over 5 ounces. from Amazon.com I've always been a fan of Panasonic's Optical Image Stabilizers on their Lumix line of cameras. The DMC-FX12 was quite the steal at under $200. from Amazon.com I was looking for something affordable and mobile, with the ability to take relatively high quality photos (for a point and shoot) to complement my times when I don't lug around a DSLR (which is 90% of the time). At first I was extremely excited to learn that Panasonic has a camera which fits the bill especially with the ability to record images in RAW format. But once it arrived and was tested through a week, I was hugely disappointed to learn that the the camera couldn't take good pictures of any kind UNLESS it was with an ISO of 100 or 50, AND in bright sunlight. from Amazon.com I am completely satisfied with my purchase of the Panasonic DMC-FX50K. The picture quality is spectacular and the software it comes with is very creative and fun. from Circuitcity.com If you can afford the price difference and don't mind the extra bulk of the protruding lens, get the DMC-LX3. You will be SO much happier. from Amazon.com The TZ5 is a great camera: awesome lens, easy to use, HD video, 3in high-res screen. The problem I had with the TZ5 is that it wasn't portable enough to `carry on me'. I finally made my rounds with the FX150 and got rid of my TZ5. No regrets! from Amazon.com The Panasonic DMC-FX12 is a great supplement to a larger SLR. It's easy to tuck into a pocket or purse to catch those pictures that inevitably pop up when you decided not to lug your big camera around. from Amazon.com I bought this camera after reading the Digital Photography Review Budget Camera Group Tests (Q4 2008) on its eponymous web site - where it earned a "Highly Recommended" rating and was the overall winner. The "contestants" were: Canon Powershot A470, Canon Powershot A590 IS, Fujifilm FinePix Z20fd, Kodak Easyshare C1013, Nikon Coolpix L18, Olympus FE-360, Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ8, Samsung L210 and Sony Cybershot DSC-W120. You can read the original report by googling "Digital Photography Review Budget Camera Group Tests (Q4 2008)." from Amazon.com For this price,the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ8S is a very worthy product. It's easy to use and the picture is good. from Amazon.com
