The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 Digital Camera A bit less than the sum of its parts?

Date of Review:  Nov 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: This one has it all -- 12X image stabilized wide angle to ultra-telephoto Leica zoom, 5 megapixels, and SLR like ergonomics but is it enough?
Review: The DMC-FZ20 is the replacement for Pansonics popular FZ10. The design folks at Panasonic stuffed all the FZ10 s best features into a new more streamlined body with a bigger handgrip and a significantly larger LCD screen, punched the resolution up...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 5-Megapixel Digital Camera with 12x Optical Stabilized Zoom - Almost Perfect. Almost.

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2004
The Bottom Line: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 is an advanced and flexible camera with excellent Leica optics, powerful 12x optical zoom, optical image stabilization...
Review: Not many people consider Panasonic digital cameras when shopping. They may be making a big mistake. Although not as well known by potential digital camera consumers as Canon, Nikon or Olympus, Panasonic does produce excellent digital cameras that...

Exemplary Camera

Date of Review:  Nov 1, 2004
The Bottom Line: They can't keep these cameras in stock, with good reason.
Review: After reading about the FZ10 I was almost about to buy one this summer when Panasonic announced the FZ20. I waited until October and got the FZ20 and am glad I waited. This camera is very versatile, easy to use, and takes great pictures. There are...

FZ20 is a great buy!

Date of Review:  Apr 24, 2005
The Bottom Line: It's versatile and easy to use, but it allows the user to get as detailed as they want to be. A great buy for both the beginner and expert shooter.
Review: After my Canon Rebel died (after 14 years) I was searching for a camera that was capable of producing quality shots for less than $1000 complete. It took me a year to resolve the digital vs. film debate but after reviewing numerous articles and...

Great camera for the money for enthusiasts

Date of Review:  Sep 29, 2004
The Bottom Line: Get the FZ20 if you want 5 MP, great zoom with image stabilization and great picture quality at a reasonable price.
Review: I carefully compared several cameras before deciding to purchase my silver FZ20, sight unseen. I played around with a Fuji S7000,a Konica Minolta Z3 and Canon S1 IS, and read a ton about the FZ series Panasonic cameras, including reviews of the FZ3...

Panasonic FZ20 Great Camera

Date of Review:  Feb 16, 2005
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this camera but be sure to purchase an extra battery and at least a 512-megabyte memory card to get maximum pleasure.
Review: The FZ20 is one incredible camera for the money. I have had the camera for two weeks and I can find little to fault on it.

I have done professional videography for many years but I don t consider myself to be a professional photographer...

Lumix FZ20 - One Great Camera ... at an affordable price

Date of Review:  Sep 21, 2004
The Bottom Line: One camera that can do it all with one lens, wide angle to ultra-zoom. You can't go wrong with this camera for the money.
Review: Let me start by saying that I traded up from a wonderful camera with my Olympus c-2100. I have been watching for about a year for something with the same features but a bit better resolution. Last Christmas Panasonic came out with an Ultra Zoom with...

The Best long zoom currently available

Date of Review:  Dec 10, 2004
The Bottom Line: Its the best stabilized long zoom out there. Lots of user control yet very easy to operate. Looks and feels like a 35mm. Develops user confidence with superb image quality.
Review: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 is a superb long lens camera worthy of consideration. Since so many reviews have already covered the various technical aspects, I'll focus my comments from a user viewpoint, having owned a dozen or so digital cameras...

Does Just What It Says On The Tin

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 2004
The Bottom Line: I spent ages researching this and I am really picky. This review is to help you put your mind at rest that you are buying the right camera.
Review: Panasonic FZ20

I have owned digital cameras now for several years and the Panasonic FZ20 will be my sixth camera.

I researched for over 2 months before buying the FZ20, but in the mean time tried all the big zoom competitors from...

An excellent choice, good value for the price.

Date of Review:  Oct 25, 2004
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended for anyone wanting more than point and shoot "happy-snaps". Easy to use in auto mode, flexible enough for any enthusiast. Even a pro might be impressed.
Review: After a few weeks of researching different digital cameras I settled on the Panasonic Lumix FZ20 because it had good reviews (http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/panasonic/dmc_fz20-review/index.shtml) along with all the features I wanted and more...
