Reading reviews…
I bought this camera after losing my Fuji J10. After doing a lot of research, I narrowed my choices down to this Panasonic, a Nikon, a Sony, and a Canon. More research and review articles confirmed for me that, under $200, this was the best camera out there on the market in terms of picture quality, zoom, megapixels, video capability, and features.

I had bought a Nikon F60 to replace my old Nikon but was so dissappointed in that camera's quality and noise that I took it back. After researching and listening to a co-worker who had just bought the Lumix Fs15 I purchased one in July 2009 and have loved every moment.

It is very easy to use. adding pictures to computer, charging battery. You can take video and add to your computer right there. I just love this camera.

Camera take great snapshots, and the 5X zoom is a nice touch, but give yourself some time to get around the menus in the beginning.

Over the past seven years I've owned three different Canons, upgrading as each camera reached its limit in terms of current features. Actually I probably would've held off for another year if my trusty SD800 hadn't broken.
In the past I've considered Panasonic but with my last two purchases my familiarity with the Canon functions/operations stopped me from trying a Panasonic. Another factor that has attracted me to Panasonic has been the Leica lens.

i have bought a Panasonic Lumix digital camera a few years ago and the quality of pictures is wonderful. i thought i'll give it a shot again, and i'm not disappointed at all.

I bought a Lumix to my mother 2 years ago and it has been a very good camera since then. Now I wanted a camera for my own, and I bought this one after some market research.

I read reviews and did some research and bought this camera because I felt it had the best, high quality, wide lens for a subcompact but after a month of taking pictures like mad I returned it while still during the 30 days! This Panasonic has such a long first-shot delay it's unacceptable to me.

I have a Canon Digital Rebel XTi that I use primarily, but I purchased this to carry around when I didn't want to lug around a larger case. So coming from that perspective I feel like the photo quality is not that great. The images seem really grainy, but I really like the colors. I haven't used another point-and-shoot since some 3MP Canon several years ago, so I can't say how this stacks up against others.

I have a Canon A650, which is pretty large. I wanted something smaller, something that could fit in my pocket. It also had to be wide-angle (so you don't have people getting cut out of group shots), have a fair amount of optical zoom, a 2.7" or greater LCD, ability to shoot movies, optical image stabilization, an orientation sensor (so I can have a program auto-rotate those shots where I'm holding the camera vertically), and use SD memory (which I already have).
The Panasonic FS15 really seemed like the only camera with all those features, at least in this price range.
