I researched a lot of point and shoots before I bought this camera. Fujifilm has a model that seems to beat out the Panasonic in reviews, for roughly $240 (after rebate). I didn't want to wait on a rebate, especially when I found the Panasonic new for approximately $156, with free shipping. I also preferred the idea of using standard rechargeable AA batteries, compared to a proprietary battery that would be expensive to replace. As of of this writing I recommend that you either spend a little extra money on the popularly reviewed Fujifilm, or else go with this Panasonic. This is an excellent entry level digital camera in terms of image resolution and battery life, as long as you don't expect miracles under low light conditions. For approximately $20 more you can also find a small two battery charger, and a 1.0 GB SD card that comes with a portable USB card reader. With shipping and a pack of rechargeable AA batteries bought locally all of it should come in right aound $190, depending on the retailer that you use. You don't absolutely need the card reader to transfer photos, but it helps to save the batteries, and also lets you use the SD card as a flash drive for other data. Windows XP doesn't need any of the included software to fetch the pictures off of the camera, or off of a card reader. The movie mode is effectively useless because it drains the batteries within seconds, but I didn't buy it for shooting video. The color LCD display has a relatively low resolution (compared to the Fuji), but it isn't anything that affects the final image quality. Battery life for outside shots without flash is impressive, and pretty good with flash. Cycle time between shots is a much better than some of the cheaper competition. A fitted case would've been nice. Panasonic makes hard and soft cases for this model but they aren't included. Not a big deal at this price, but they tend to last longer in a padded case.
 Great camera - while it worked ... March 21, 2007

I bought this camera as a Christmas 2006 gift. It worked perfectly out of the box. Took great pictures. It was the right camera for what I wanted it (carry along for snapping photos for blogs and Web sites). Then, suddenly, the shutter that covers the lens won't open when the camera is turned on. I reset the camera in the hope that the problem will go away, but it didn't. So, great camera while it worked, 4 star photos. Reliability: Zero.

I rated this camera at 5 for two reasons:
1.) A highly polished product for a steal of a price.
2.) It was more than I asked for when I walked into the store.
I bought an Olympus D-460 for $450 a long time ago. 1.3 MP & 3x optical zoom. Then I bought this, a 5MP 6x optical zoom *with stabilization* for a quarter of the cost of the other one.
I went in looking for a 5MP w/3x optical zoom and removable storage with the expectation of dropping $200. I did...but I also walked out with a 1GB SD card and an in-store repair plan. I've had enough experience with digital cameras to know that some type of plan is a virtual necessity.
No, this is not a high end camera, nor does it pretend to be. But if you want something with decent resolution, with a bunch of presets, yet still allows you to customize your own shot, then this is your camera.
I've been snapping pictures ever since I got home with it...taking some really difficult shots...the TV...the computer. Stuff in a dark closet. The only thing it couldn't do was take a decent picture of me...then again, a professional photographer with a $3000 camera and photoshop couldn't get a good picture of me. :-)
